Brake Monitoring Units

TRUCONNECT® Brake Monitoring uses a condition monitoring device to collect the status of brake air gap, mechanical and electrical faults from the electromagnetic disc brakes. The 
service provides visibility into current brake condition, estimates remaining service life and indicates brake faults.
The data is transmitted to the Konecranes Remote Data Center and made visible on Konecranes Portal. Brake Monitoring information is used in predictive maintenance and can also be used for brake maintenance planning.
