ABSTRACT:
A brake module provides a first circuit, a second circuit, and a third circuit of pressurized brake fluid. A first set and second set of brake actuators are operated by the application of pressurized brake fluid. A first and second fluid separator unit are integrated between the first and second circuit, and the first and third circuit, respectively, for substantially preventing any intermixing of pressurized brake fluid between the first, second, and third circuits. The first and second fluid separator units include a moveable pressure boundary which enables the second circuit and third circuit of pressurized brake fluid to selectively act upon the first set and second set of brake actuators in response to the first circuit of pressurized brake fluid acting upon the first and second fluid separator units. At least one proportional valve selectively controls the pressurized brake fluid of the first circuit for acting on the first and the second fluid separator units.
