DESCRIPTION
GENERAL
The EC-16
™
is an electronic antilock controller. It is the
base component in a family of full vehicle wheel control
antilock systems for buses, trucks and truck tractors. In
addition to the antilock function, the EC-16
antilock systems for buses, trucks and truck tractors. In
addition to the antilock function, the EC-16
™
controller can
be assembled and programmed to provide an optional
traction control feature. Figure 1 shows the basic EC-16
traction control feature. Figure 1 shows the basic EC-16
™
controller confi guration.
Designed to minimize the potential of brake lock up on all
wheels during aggressive braking, the EC-16

minimizes wheel skid during hard or aggressive braking. By
controlling wheel skid at all wheels on the vehicle, optimum
steering control and stopping distance is obtained.

Traction control, an optional feature in the full vehicle wheel
control antilock system, helps improve vehicle traction
during acceleration in adverse road conditions. Integrated
control antilock system, helps improve vehicle traction
during acceleration in adverse road conditions. Integrated
with antilock logic, traction control monitors wheel speed
information from the sensors during acceleration, as well
as braking. The system helps maintain vehicle stability on
hazardous road surfaces and improves driveability and
safety.

There are two versions of the EC-16
™
controller. The
older version, was factory pre-programmed with vehicle
particulars, such as the number of speed sensors, if the
traction control feature was enabled and the type of traction
control (torque limiting, differential braking or both). A part
number was assigned to the EC-16
particulars, such as the number of speed sensors, if the
traction control feature was enabled and the type of traction
control (torque limiting, differential braking or both). A part
number was assigned to the EC-16
™
controller which was
specifi c for the programmed features contained in the unit.
The newer version contains a self confi guring or learning
feature that allows the EC-16
The newer version contains a self confi guring or learning
feature that allows the EC-16
™
controller to be confi gured
by the user when installed on the vehicle. Because of this
feature, all of the new version EC-16
feature, all of the new version EC-16
™
controllers contain
all the features and options available and will activate the
specifi c features required for the vehicle it is installed on.
