DVSA New Brake Testing Standard!

November 17th, 2022 Comments off

DVSA has reminded operators that from 1 January 2023, it will refuse to perform annual roadworthiness for most vehicles and trailers if presented unladen.

There are limited exemptions: including tri-axle semitrailers, and refuse collection vehicles.

In most circumstances, to achieve maximum adhesion between the brake tester roller and the tyre, vehicles must be loaded to at least 65 per cent of their design axle weights with cargo or ballast to achieve this. Otherwise, a premature lock-up may prevent an accurate reading. Brake actuation pressure will also be maximised.

The traffic commissioners and DVSA have placed great emphasis on the importance of brake testing since the 2014 Bath tipper tragedy, with the support of all industry bodies.

DVSA says the effort is paying off. In 2014, 3.3 per cent of heavy goods motor vehicles failed their annual test on service brake performance. In the last quarter of 2021, that had reduced to 1.88 per cent.

PMI Roadworthiness tests with a HGV Brake Testers / Decelerometer as an alternative.

Truck & Trailer Brake Testers – Temperature Test

July 4th, 2022 Comments off

DVSA Guidance states The Use Of a Temperature Tool Is Good Practice For Commercial Vehicle Maintenance Routines. Extract From Guide to maintaining roadworthiness (11.2018) “The use of brake temperature measurement can improve the effectiveness of a road test and is an established method to assess if individual brakes are operational. Brake disc/drum temperature readings should be compared across an axle after a laden road test or by in-service monitoring, using a brake temperature sensor, which can be a simple handheld device or using a more sophisticated remote monitoring system. ” Simple & Hand Held A Temperature Gun Is Ideal For Individual Brake Checks.

Brake Testers Like #BrakeCheck are great tools to test #brakes & demonstrate their efficiency for both the #truck & the trailer, but it won’t allow you to test each individual #wheel. To identify which wheel is defective you’ll also need to use a tool such as “Infra Red Temp Gun”
