Overview

• The Haldex range – from the new generation of S-ABA self-setting automatic brake adjusters to the well-established AA1 automatic brake adjuster – sets the highest standards for performance, reliability and safety.

AA1

• As the very first clearance-sensing brake adjuster, the Haldex AA1 offers customers a higher level of technical efficiency, safety and reliability. It is designed to adjust exactly and gradually when it matters, maintaining a constant clearance between the lining and drum, whatever the conditions or driver's braking style. The adjustment mechanism is integrated into a robust, high-quality housing that protects it from knocks, dirt and moisture and assures a long service life even in hostile driving environments.

Key benefits:

• Constantly maintains brake lining-to-drum clearance, reducing stopping distances and increasing driver's confidence under all conditions.
• Heat-treated housing extends life and minimizes internal wear.
• Heat-treated, high-strength, high-alloy steel internal gears withstand wear.
• Reliable O-ring seals improve protection from moisture, dirt and road salt.
• Verifies proper installation at a glance through its built-in visual indicator, eliminating the cumbersome templates needed to check other ABAs.

What sets Haldex apart:

• Global market leader with over 75 million brake adjusters sold since the introduction in the late 60´s.
• Better durability and reliability, which provides a longer service life.
• Reliable ring seal prevents contamination from moisture, dirt and road salt.

• The Manual version automatically lowers a lift axle when a load is present and is manually raised by pushing in a button. The Fully Automatic version can raise and lower the axle without manual intervention. ILAS® III Valve takes the place of current systems, which use multiple components, fittings and plumbing.

ILAS®-E Valve

• The Haldex ILAS®-E Air Suspension System Valve can control the position of the lift axles through an electrical connection. A 12V power supply is needed to keep the lift axles in the raised position. When power is removed, the lift axles will automatically be lowered. This can be simply controlled via an electrical switch.

• When coupled with the Haldex TRS System, the lift axles can be controlled to raise and lower automatically as the air suspension reacts to changing loads in the trailer. The ILAS® E/TRS System can be adjusted to react at various pressure conditions, making the system versatile for single or multiple lift axle trailers.

• The ILAS® E simplifies the lift axle system with four push-to-connect fittings and a standard DIN electrical connection. Traditional lift axle systems are often complex with multiple components and numerous fittings. The Haldex design combines all the functionality into an easy-to-use system.

Key benefits:

• Electrically controlled raising and lowering of one or more lift-axles;
• Automatic lift axle control;
• Optimized and easy installation;
• Compatible with Haldex EB+ and ITCM as well as other EBS Systems;

• The process begins by completely tearing down each unit, then inspecting all individual components. Haldex’s standard manufacturing processes and procedures dictate the parameters of which components are remachined and which are replaced. The brand’s comprehensive process is the key to maintaining the highest industry standards for quality and reliability.

• Hadlex valves are manufactured with superior components, precise processes and exacting quality standards, making the brand the number one choice when it comes to genuine products vs imitation.
