TSE Sense - Intelligent Air Brake Chambers The next step in Brake Chamber Technology
TSE-SenseTM Brake Chambers continuously monitors brake stroke and transmits the data to the TSE-SenseTM Data Integration Box (DIB).
Patent-pending technologies diagnose brake issues in real-time, including:
- Dragging brake
- Non functioning Service brake
- Non functioning Parking brake
- Slow brake actuation
- Slow brake release
- Overstroke condition
- Emergency spring failure
- Same axle and Cross-axle brake imbalance
The TSE Sense Characteristics
- TSE Sense Brake Chamber
- The TSE Sense system uses our tried and true UltraLife Plus brake chamber as its foundation
- Each brake chamber is equipped with a sealed wiring harness
- Characteristics & Functions
- Each UltraLife Plus Sense Brake Chamber is individually calibrated
- This calibration includes identifying information—i.e. stroke rating, parking size, service size, etc.
- The Sense system generates brake stroke measurements
- The Sense system logs brake performance data
- Data Integration Box (DIB)
- The DIB is the centralized ECU for the TSE Sense system.
- The DIB is mounted on the sliding tandem frame.
- The DIB provides power and communications to the Sense Brake
- Chambers and communicates with the host telematics system.
- Characteristics & Functions
- The DIB connects to Blue (AUX Power), White (GND), and Red (Brake Light) circuits
- The DIB interfaces with 4 or 6 Sense Brake Chambers
- The DIB processes incoming data and generates flags
- The DIB sends messages to the telematics via CAN Bus or RS-485
- The DIB contains an on-board Accelerometer to detect vehicle motion
