Electronic Brake Pedal

Foot pedal with sensor designed for use in electrohydraulic brake and/or electronic throttle control applications

• Provides force feedback proportional to pedal rotation
• Reduces operator fatigue by removing hydraulic system noise from the cab of the machine
• Allows the electro-/hydraulic valves to be located near the brakes for quick system response
• Various spring packs are available to suit light to heavy pedal force requirements
• Robust pedal design for demanding environments

ZF COMMERCIAL VEHICLE CONTROL SYSTEMS, OFF-HIGHWAY SOLUTIONS is a global leading construction and mining solution provider providing robust pedal designs for demanding environments

A hydraulic valve can be added to the end of the pedal stroke for additional redundancy. The electronic brake pedal allows the electro-/hydraulic valves to be located near the brakes for quick system response. Various spring packs are available to suit light to heavy pedal force requirements.
