Meritor WABCO's hydraulic anti-lock braking system (HABS) builds upon proven benefits to produce an even more reliable package. With our expertise in heavy-duty commercial vehicle ABS design, Meritor WABCO is now the proven choice for operators of medium-duty trucks, buses and motor homes. This next generation of hydraulic ABS features a compact cab-mount or frame-mount electronic control unit (ECU), plus simplified, higher-reliability wiring harness arrangements and new PC-based diagnostic capabilities.

System Components
Electronic control unit (ECU)
  • State-of-the art electronics function as the "brain" of the ABS
  • Compact designs are available in both cab- and frame-mount configurations for application flexibility
  • Constantly monitors wheel speeds and provides system performance information
  • Designed for optimum performance with vehicle retarders
Modulator assembly
  • Comprised of ABS solenoid valves, pump motor and two accumulators
  • Inlet and outlet valves control the brake pressure to each wheel to prevent lock-up
  • Controls speed of each wheel individually for optimum performance
Wheel-speed sensing system
  • Advanced sensors designed for heavy-duty commercial vehicle applications provide reliable monitoring of wheel speeds
  • High signal strength provides excellent system performance and maximum protection from electromagnetic and radio frequency interference (EMI/RFI)
  • Completely sealed and protected from moisture and corrosion
Simple diagnostics
  • Indicates status of ABS operation
  • Standard blink-code information is provided to easily perform system diagnostics
  • Optional PC-based diagnostic capabilities
