Page 14: The Theory Of Brake Testing
EB30/EC30/630 Upgrade Page 14 The Theory of Brake Testing. Brake testing on roller brake tester. Measuring the brake force is done as described in the following: An asynchronous motor turns the wheels of the vehicle. The brake force of a wheel affects the rollers with a torque, which is measured electronically. - Page 15 EB30/EC30/630 Upgrade Page 15 The pressure asserted by the foot on the brake pedal is called the brake pedal pressure. Especially interesting is the highest brake pedal pressure measured at the moment the wheels lock. The highest brake pedal pressure must be less then 50 - 70 kilos depending on the type of vehicle.
