Device and method for handling a pneumatic braking system compressor, in particular for industrial vehicles

摘要

There is described a method and device for handling a pneumatic braking system, in particular for industrial vehicles, based on acquiring information about a route to be travelled by a navigation system and comprising the steps of calculating a braking system use time (Tbreaking) on a length of said route in relation to said information, so that when the current pressure (Pa) of the compressed air contained in the accumulation tank is insufficient with respect to said braking system use time (Tbreaking), then it provides for activating the compressor, so as to make said current pressure (Pa) reach a sufficient target pressure (Pt). The method may comprise activating the compressor by a further or alternative control in relation to the driving torque required by the engine for moving the vehicle.
