Brake Noise Measurement System

An invaluable tool in identifying and analyzing brake noise on a vehicle

Prosig have worked closely with some of the leading brake specialists to develop the Brake Noise Measurement System. The system consists of a Prosig P8020 data acquisition unit equipped with analog inputs for microphones and accelerometers. It also has inputs for CAN-bus and has integrated GPS tracking capaility. An 8-channel thermocouple input module is also included.

The DATS software provides data capture with a selection of automatic and manual triggers to detect brake noise events. During the test all data is logged at a low rate for reference purposes and, when an event is triggered, data is captured at a higher rate for later analysis. The data is captured using a pre-trigger so that data leading up to event detection is also stored.

Data can be captured for hours, days or even weeks. Software tools are supplied to collate and report on the results. Breakdowns are given for individual wheels, front & rear and the severity of any noise events. The user is provided with a clear view the acoustic perfomance of the brakes across the entire test period.

System includes...

- P8020 12-channel data acquisition system
- 8-channel thermocouple input
- CAN-bus input
- DATS Toolbox software
- 5 x Microphones
- 4 x Uniaxial accelerometers
- 1 x Microphone calibrator
- All leads, cables & accelerometer wax

Do You Need To Measure Brake Noise?

The objective of the brake noise tests was to record the braking events of cars being driven on various types of road and classify those events according to their type (Groan, Creep or Squeal etc) and severity. To do this the customer needed a system capable of working for long periods inside a vehicle in fairly tough conditions (high ambient temperatures, rough road) that was both quick to install and to remove.
