Engineered with precision, this amplifier delivers consistent power amplification to the hydraulic or mechanical brake lines, ensuring optimal stopping force across a wide range of operating conditions.

Key Functional Characteristics

• Power Amplification: The unit boosts the input pressure from the master cylinder, providing up to 30% greater output force without compromising system integrity.
• Dual‑Mode Operation: Supports both hydraulic and mechanical (cable) brake systems, making it versatile for various vehicle platforms.
• Integrated Safety Features: Built-in pressure relief valves prevent over‑pressure scenarios, safeguarding the braking components from damage.
• Compact Design: The compact housing allows installation in tight engine bay spaces without requiring extensive modifications.

Technical Specifications

Installation Guidelines

The amplifier is designed for straightforward integration into existing brake systems. Follow these steps to ensure optimal performance:

1. Preparation: Disconnect the vehicle’s battery and relieve all hydraulic pressure.
2. Positioning: Mount the unit on a clean, flat surface within the engine compartment, aligning it with the master cylinder outlet.
3. Cable Routing (Mechanical Systems): Route the brake cable through the amplifier’s built‑in guide to maintain tension and prevent kinking.
4. Connection: Secure all fittings with torque specifications provided in the technical manual.
5. Testing: Reapply battery power, pressurize the system, and verify that the output pressure matches the specified range.

Maintenance & Troubleshooting

• Regular Inspection: Check for leaks or wear on seals every 12,000 miles (or as recommended by the vehicle manufacturer).
• Seal Replacement: Replace polymer seals if they show signs of cracking or deformation.
• Pressure Calibration: If braking feels spongy, recalibrate the pressure relief valve to ensure it is not prematurely releasing pressure.
