AL-KO SENSABRAKE EAS – THE ULTIMATE IN TRAILER BRAKING

When AL-KO International announced in 2009 that it has purchased Sensbrake from New Zealand company Edge International, we set about ensuring that this Electronic Air/Hydraulic (Brake Actuation) System, EAS for short, was the best of it’s kind on the market, and delivered features that the large and heavy Trailer owner would require.

The new AL-KO Sensabrake EAS product range now features industry leading quality and performance standards that AL-KO, in Australia and internationally is renowned for.

The AL-KO Sensabrake EAS solves the dilemma as, by law, all trailers with a loaded weight exceeding two tonnes (2.5 tonnes in New Zealand) must incorporate power assisted brake application. Until recently the most popular solution was to fit a vacuum or compressed air system to the tow vehicle, but not only is this very expensive it often also means that the warranty of the tow vehicle is voided.

With the AL-KO Sensabrake Electronic Air/Hydraulic System (EAS), hydraulic disc brakes are now not only legal for towed vehicles and trailers over 2 tonnes in Australia and 2.5 tonnes in New Zealand, but also perform exceptionally well.

The AL-KO Sensabrake EAS is very easy to install either for a new trailer or an existing trailer. All electronic components are “plug and play” type for ease of installation and on the EVO Controller option, the unit incorporates full self diagnostic electronics..

The Sensabrake EAS has been engineered to handle the most demanding trailer braking requirements and it’s unique operation features ensure the highest product performance and reliability.
