1998 Mercedes-Benz CLK320 Brake Master Cylinders

As the basis for a standardized ATE concept for future tandem master cylinders, ATE has developed a new plunger generation which has many technical enhancements and advantages.

Product Features:

• Short closing paths
• Low volume uptake
• High efficiency
• Low throttling / after-suction resistance
• Low pressure differential between primary and secondary circuits
• Good bleedability
• Cr6-free surfaces for vehicles built from July 2007 (as required by law)
• Central valve version suitable for ABS
• Compact design – ideal for installation in small spaces
• Reduced weight – by roughly 20% compared to conventional central valve technology
• Fewer components – almost half as many as compared to conventional technologies
• Modular system – diameters from 14.29 to 31.75mm and strokes up to 46mm
• Low volume uptake – minimized elastic deformations due to smaller seals
• Sealing cups supported in the housing – robustness against soiling and wear; longer life
• Cr6-free surfaces for vehicles built from July 2007 (as required by law)

TRW Automotive supplies master cylinder brake actuation systems featuring quality and performance. TRW’s master cylinder product portfolio covers a wide range of vehicles, from small cars up to truck and SUV platforms. These systems can offer lighter weight, with options such as micro master cylinders and aluminum master cylinders through to heavy-duty master cylinders designed for the durability and variable loading conditions of the light-truck market. These systems function with the help of a series of brake fluid sensors, which are located on the reservoir tank. This series includes vacuum sensors, brake light switches, and travel sensors.
