ECAS (Car)

Luxury car, SUV and light commercial vehicle manufacturers increasingly require air suspension systems and shock absorber controls. WABCO's Electronically Controlled Air Suspension (ECAS) and the responsiveness of continuously variable shock absorber control provide increased driving comfort and safety on various road surfaces, in most driving situations and when vehicle loads vary. WABCO's ECAS keeps the vehicle height constant and provides for automatic side-to-side adjustment of the vehicle body. WABCO has developed a family of compressors for ECAS. Depending on the type of air suspension system applied, three compressors with different performance ratings are available. A high level of integration for additional components such as electronic control units, solenoid valves, sensors, wiring, relay, etc. permits complete air delivery systems to be customized to client's needs.
