In addition to these two housing mounted connectors, the EC-16 ™ controller also uses a 2 pin Deutsch connector when programmed with the optional traction control feature.
#BENDIX ABS HANDBOOK EC 30 SERIES#
Two electrical connectors located in the controller housing opposite the diagnostic display, connect the EC-16 ™ controller to antilock and traction system components: one 30 pin and one 18 pin Packard Electric 150 series "Metri pack" connector. The patented light emitting diode (LED) display and a magnetically actuated reset switch is incorporated in the housing for troubleshooting and diagnostic purposes. The metal housing and the design of the digital electronics are intended to provide a high degree of protection from radio and electromagnetic interference. The EC-16 ™ controller electronics are contained in a die cast aluminum housing and are environmentally protected by a self healing silicone compound.

In order to provide full vehicle wheel control antilock, the EC-16 ™ controller is used in combination with the following components:

The procedure for activating the self configuring feature and identifying old and new version EC-16 ™ controllers isĬontained in the section entitled "Configuring The EC-16 ™ Controller". The new version EC-16 ™ controller can be installed on vehicles with only antilock or vehicles using the traction control feature. Because of this feature, all of the new version EC-16 ™ controllers contain all the features and options available and will activate the specific features required for the vehicle it is installed on. The newer version contains a self configuring or learning feature that allows the EC-16 ™ controller to be configured by the user when installed on the vehicle.

A part number was assigned to the EC-16 ™ controller which was specific for the programmed features contained in the unit. The older version, was factory pre-programmed with vehicle particulars, such as the number of speed sensors, if the traction control feature was enabled and the type of traction control (torque limiting, differential braking or both). There are two versions of the EC-16 ™ controller. The system helps maintain vehicle stability on hazardous road surfaces and improves driveability and safety. Integrated withĪntilock logic, traction control monitors wheel speed information from the sensors during acceleration, as well as braking. Traction control, an optional feature in the full vehicle wheel control antilock system, helps improve vehicle traction during acceleration in adverse road conditions. By controlling wheel skid at all wheels on the vehicle, optimum steering control and stopping distance is obtained. The antilock portion of the EC-16 ™ controller based system minimizes wheel skid during hard or aggressive braking. In most cases, vehicle stopping distance is also reduced. Figure 1 shows the basic EC-16 ™ controller configuration.ĭesigned to minimize the potential of brake lock up on all wheels during aggressive braking, the EC-16 ™ controller based antilock system provides the vehicle with a high degree of stability and steerability during braking. In addition to the antilock function, the EC-16 ™ controller can be assembled and programmed to provide an optional traction control feature. It is the base component in a family of full vehicle wheel control antilock systems for buses, trucks and truck tractors. The EC-16 ™ is an electronic antilock controller.
