At JHM Butt, we offer a range of high-quality brake decelerometers designed to provide accurate measurements and facilitate thorough inspections, ensuring that vehicles meet the necessary safety standards for roadworthiness. A must have unit in your MOT garage workshop.

Understanding Brake Decelerometers

Brake decelerometers, also known as brake meters, brake testers or g meters, are precision instruments used to measure the deceleration rate of a vehicle during braking. These devices play a critical role in determining the performance and effectiveness of a vehicle's braking system, contributing to the overall assessment of its roadworthiness during MOT testing.

Application in the MOT Process

During MOT testing, brake decelerometers are employed to conduct brake performance tests on vehicles, enabling testers to evaluate the functionality and effectiveness of the vehicle's braking system. By measuring the deceleration rate and comparing it against established safety standards, these devices help identify potential issues and ensure that vehicles meet regulatory requirements for safe braking performance.

Using a brake decelerometer during the MOT process allows testers to gather reliable data on a vehicle's braking performance, providing a comprehensive assessment of its safety and roadworthiness. This ultimately contributes to the overall goal of upholding stringent safety standards and promoting secure driving experiences for road users when completing MOT tests.

Calibration Charges and Regulatory Compliance

Calibration is crucial to maintaining the accuracy and reliability of brake decelerometers, ensuring that they continue to deliver precise measurements in accordance with regulatory standards. At JHM Butt, we are able to offer comprehensive calibration services for Turnkey brake decelerometers, enabling testing facilities to uphold the integrity of their testing equipment and comply with regulatory requirements.

Frequency of Calibration

Regulatory guidelines mandate that brake decelerometers should be calibrated at regular intervals to guarantee their accuracy and performance. Typically, these units should undergo calibration annually, although the specific calibration frequency may vary based on local regulations and testing requirements. It is essential for testing facilities to adhere to the prescribed calibration schedules to ensure the consistent accuracy of their brake decelerometers.

Regulations on Calibration

In addition to the frequency of calibration, regulatory bodies may specify stringent guidelines pertaining to the calibration process for brake decelerometers. These regulations often outline the technical requirements, documentation standards, and certification processes associated with calibration, ensuring that testing facilities maintain meticulous records and compliance with industry standards.

By adhering to the established regulations on calibration, testing facilities can demonstrate their commitment to upholding safety standards and ensuring the accuracy of brake decelerometer measurements during MOT testing.
