What is Brake Assist BAS?

1. Brake Assist the BAS

Brake Assist (the BAS)
substantially the same EBA. Because most drivers can not be quickly and forcefully take measures in case of emergency braking, optimal performance brake system can not play, the braking distance will be significantly extended. Thus, Mercedes – Benz developed a brake assist system (BAS). Since 1997, this system has become all Mercedes – Benz car standard assembly.

Brake Assist System (BAS) for the effective braking provides the necessary support. By continuously comparing the speed of the brake pedal, the system will recognize an emergency braking situation. If the driver depresses the brake pedal frightened when the reaction speed is faster than the stored normal value in the control unit, the brake assist system automatically acts to establish the maximum brake pressure on the brakes rapidly rises to a deceleration maximum.

Since its invention, the brake assist system (BAS) has been a million times proved its reliability. The system not only to avoid a collision, but also can play an effective protection of pedestrians.

and the anti-lock system (ABS), as a brake assist system (BAS) are also integrated with Electronic Stability system (ESP) in. In order to adjust the brake pressure, the system uses electronically controlled Stability Program (ESP) technology, so that no additional member of. Sensors continuously record a brake pedal is depressed speed, and sends the data to the electronic control unit. Since the anti-lock system (ABS) has also been measured with precision braking force, and compared with the limit value doing slipping, and therefore assist in the automatic emergency braking situation, but also to avoid locking the wheel, so that the car can be maintained at a controlled under. If the driver’s foot off the brake pedal, the automatic power device is disconnected immediately.

Mercedes – Benz brake assist system (BAS) function and mode of action have made detailedtest. For example, driving simulator: Here, the driver will be without warning and dangerous situation, then they must implement the emergency brake. On dry roads, without using brake assist system, most testers require up to 73 meters of braking distance, can the speed of 100 kilometers per hour the car to a complete stop. While the use of this system, just after 40 meters after the car completely stopped. This is equivalent to about 45 percentage shortening the braking distance.
