The design of the BM3010 roller brake tester is unique on the market, as it has a height of only 16 cm and can be placed directly on the floor.

This brake tester features a large range of options that allows for a customized configuration.

Options

• Robust and long lasting:
  • All steel is of highest quality and hot galvanized.
  • Consists of an integral motorized gear box, two main rollers and a spring loaded sensor roller, all placed in a galvanized steel frame.
  • The wear surfaces of the rollers are based on mesh steel to ensure a long life time and accurate measurements.
  • Can be supplied in a minimum configuration and still allows for later upgrade to all options.
  • Prepared for test line expansion including suspension tester, speedometer tester and side slip tester all controlled from the same electronics with results shown on one display.
• Easy to use with BM software:
  • Integrated guide.
  • Advanced graphics printout.
  • Diagnostic printout with or without connection to PC/Notebook.
  • Calculation of test results according to the requirements of many national authorities.
  • BM FlexCheck software:
  • Advanced data collection, storing and presentation of test results.
• Data capture from a complete inspection lane.
• PDA/smartphone/tablet solution that allows the operator to control and monitor the test results directly on a handheld unit.
• •  
• Infrared remote control with an operating distance of 15-25 metres.
• Cable remote control with a maximum operating distance of 30 metres.
• Large and easy-to-read aluminium display with analogue and digital readout of all relevant test data.
  • Two large analogue dials showing readings of left and right brake forces.
  • 50 mm high bright digital readout of brake force imbalance in %.
  • Optional digital readouts of e.g. ovality, pedal force, weight, efficiency, suspension values, speed and distance values.
  • Display units are available in daN, kgf or kN.
• Pedal force measurement.
• Optional automatic axle weighing system.
• Test of 4×4 driven vehicles.
• Pneumatic controlled load simulation system that raises the rollers to simulate load on the axle.
• Heating package for outdoor installation.

The BM3010 roller brake tester is approved by several international authorities i.e. RWTÜV Germany.

• The rollers are only 160 mm above floor level allowing for very short drive on/off ramps (only 185 cm on each side).

• Requires a minimum of floor space.

• Capable of measuring up to 700 daN/kgf on each wheel, which equals or outperforms most conventional brake testers.

• The display can be mounted either on the wall, saving floor space, or on floor column devices, that are designed so equipment is protected even when floor is cleaned with chemicals. It can also be mounted on a trolley making it easy to move around.

• Can be supplied with wheels and trolley for easy moving around by one person.

• Can easily be transported from site to site on a flatbed truck or trailer. This allows for sharing the brake tester between different sites or to perform brake test of vehicles at fleet owners site.

• Can be installed in-ground using a hot galvanized subframe. Thus it can be used on-ground in a temporary location and later moved to a new location to be – if requested – installed in-ground.
• Can be installed both indoor and outdoor in most environments from -30ºC to 60°C and humidity up to 95.
