[Vehicle Basic Knowledge Information] What is Hydraulic ABS Module Assy?

First, what is the ABS system?


ABS stands for Anti-Lock Braking System. In other words, it is a system that prevents the brakes from locking.

You may think that locking the brakes is dangerous, but it does not disable the brakes.

When you step on the brakes while driving, the wheels that were spinning stop, but in normal situations, the vehicle brakes normally without any problems.

However, on slippery roads or when braking suddenly, the body of the vehicle may tilt or the vehicle may skid with the brakes alone.

That is why the ABS system exists to prevent this!

 

ABS system consists of sensors/control devices/pressure control devices.

 

▶ABS sensor

Sensors include wheel speed sensors and brake pressure sensors.

The wheel speed sensor measures the rotational power of each wheel,

and the brake pressure sensor detects and transmits the degree to which the brake pedal is pressed.

▶ECU

The ECU is an electronic control device that analyzes and receives signals and information from various sensors,

and sends appropriate commands to the hydraulic control device to

provide appropriate braking power.


▶Actuator

This is a component that controls the hydraulic pressure generated when a vehicle is braking.

It consists of an actuator solenoid valve, motor, and pump.

The solenoid valve controls the brake pressure transmitted to each wheel,

and the motor/pump generates hydraulic pressure for this.

The ABS system works in the same way as above.

 

When we step on the brake pedal,

the brake pads are pressed against the brake disc,

and the frictional force gradually reduces the rotation of the wheels.

 

At this time, the wheel speed sensor sends the rotation speed of each wheel to the ECU,

and the ECU orders the hydraulic control unit to

provide appropriate braking force based on this.


The hydraulic control unit operates the safety valve to

reduce the hydraulic pressure of the brakes,

and repeats this process about 20 times per second,

optimizing the brake pressure so that the wheels do not lock up.

 

That is why even the best drivers

cannot overcome the operation of the ABS system.

Since the braking system is the most important in a vehicle, genuine ABS Module Assy is sold at a very high price.

However, if you purchase a used product by mistake and there is a problem with the braking system, a bigger problem may occur, so please refer to this when purchasing the product.
