ABSTRACT:
A monitoring and safety system for air-operated parking brakes and foot brakes on a vehicle employs electric contacts to provide alarms when movement of the actuators occurs in a manner indicative of failure or malfunction in the actuators or in the brakes themselves. The system also includes a number of air pressure sensors for monitoring and alarm functions. In addition, parking brake air pressure is monitored for purpose of overriding a movement sensor alarm when air pressure in the actuator indicates that the vehicle is parked.
