Body Raised Safety Interlock System
Body Raised Interlock - Prevents accidents without interfering with normal operation of vehicle
Besides possible driver injuries, a body raised collision can have major financial consequences other than collision damage to:- Power lines, bridges, gantries, conveyors, etc. Production may be reduced or completely stopped.
The system allows the driver to pull forward spreading the load during tipping operations, but prevents them accidentally driving off with the body raised. A small dash mounted control station indicates the system status.
The system is designed in such a way that the brakes gradually apply should the body be raised whilst the vehicle is in motion. The system is designed for use on vehicles with air/spring brakes.
