Questions and Answers about Bendix Stability Systems for Trailers 
February, 2011 
 
 
1.  What is trailer roll stability? 
A trailer roll stability system is designed to help drivers maintain control of their vehicle in two ways.  
First, it senses conditions that may lead to a rollover.  And second, it intervenes by applying the trailer 
brakes automatically, to help keep the vehicle stable - typically before the driver realizes intervention is 
needed. 
 
2.  What are my options with Bendix trailer roll stability systems? 
Bendix has two approaches to trailer roll stability (TRSP): 
  Bendix
®
 TABS-6 Advanced is a single channel (2S/1M) stability system based on the most 
popular ABS design used on over 80% of North American trailers.  It utilizes two wheel speed 
sensors positioned on the right and left of the axle.  The compact electro-pneumatic controller 
has only a single modulator, along with an internal lateral acceleration sensor to detect and 
react to potential rollover conditions.  Bendix has taken this approach specifically for North 
America to create a unique, simple and affordable approach to trailer roll stability systems. 
 
  The Bendix
®
 TABS-6 Advanced MC
 system provides fleets with the same trailer roll 
stability (TRSP) technology as Bendix
®
 TABS-6 Advanced, along with an adaptable solution 
for different axle configurations that utilizes two – or three – separately controlled modulators.  
The Bendix
®
 TABS-6 Advanced MC platform allows for distinct control of either side of the 
trailer, or it can be configured to control independent axles on a given vehicle.  This system is 
available on configurations ranging from 2S/2M (2 wheel speed sensors/2 modulators) up to 
6S/3M (6 wheel speed sensors/3 modulators.) 
 
3. How 
does 
Bendix
® 
TABS-6 Advanced compare to competitive systems? 
  It’s the first single channel trailer roll stability system -  Utilizing only 2 wheel speed sensors and 
1 modulator (2S/1M), Bendix
® 
TABS-6 Advanced adds no additionally mounted components to the 
most popular trailer ABS configuration, 2S/1M. 
 
  Simple package – All key components are housed in the Bendix
® 
TABS-6 Advanced unit – 
modulator and Electronic Control Unit (ECU).  Only wheel speed sensors are separated – keeping 
connections (wires and air hoses) to a minimum.  The locking connector covers provide a second 
line of defense against water splash and road grime. 
 
  Easy to Install – The Bendix
®
 TABS-6 Advanced system is the only trailer stability system that 
will mount directly to the air tank.  Or, the unit can also be easily installed on a cross member or 
frame rail. 
 
  Easy to Maintain – Maintenance for the trailer stability system is no more than what is needed for 
a standard trailer ABS system.  Components are replacement only, requiring no repair.  Diagnostics 
are simple – over the power lines, using PLC communication – along with the latest version of the
