It will have a dual circuit application air brake system. Some motorhomes may use an air-over-hydraulic brake system.

What are anti-lock brakes?
a safety system which prevents the wheel on a motor vehicle from locking while braking.
Antilock brakes are the same as conventional brakes?
An anti-lock braking system, or ABS is a safety system which prevents the wheels on a motor vehicle from locking up (or ceasing to rotate) while braking. anti lock brakes were designed so that when you do a "panic stop" or slam on your brakes, it will control your wheels so they dont slip or loose traction.
Why disc brakes are used in two wheelers front wheel?
Braking power transmitted to the front wheel is high compare to that of rear wheel normally(60:40 or 70:30) in motor cycle.Disc brakes which has high magnitude of braking power compare to that of drum brakes are used in motor cycles to absorb the more braking power.
What is better to brake a motor control braking or dynamic braking?
There are three type of electrical brakes that can be applied to motors. Regenerative Plugging in Dynamic "control braking" does not mean a correct description. Dynamic braking is better.
Why is there vibration when braking and abs comes on?
The ABS motor is pulsating which is applying and releasing the brakes to avoid wheel lock-up. This is normal.
MY brake fluid light came on does that mean there is a problem with your braking system?
no and maybe it not connected to your car motor and it motor.
What happen when you remove braking resistor on the inverter?
The system will lose it's regenerative braking function, if there is no other means to stop the motor it will coast to a stop.
Do trains still require brakemen?
No, not in the classic definition of a man who walks from car to car to apply the brakes. Modern trains have computer monitored air brakes which apply brakes through an air line connected from the front locomotive to the rear of the train. The air brakes are powered by air compressors on the locomotives that are driven by the engine itself. Air applied removes the brakes, removing the air from the line will apply the brakes as a fail safe. This system was originally thought up and put into action by the Westinghouse Air Brake Company (WABCO). It has been since improved and has been the primary braking method for trains since it was patented in 1868. Modern trains now even have dynamic braking of their electrical motors to slow them down as well. Dynamic braking is a method of connecting an electrical motor so that it acts as a generator and drives power to a grid of resistors that dissipate the power of the motor through heat. This, in turn, fights the motor and slows it down. This type of braking is used to precision control train braking/slowing and to assist in speed control in hilly and mountain terrain without using air braking. You could be a brakeman for the railroads long after walking from car to car to apply brakes was obsolete. Being a brakeman then was similar to being a conductor but with different duties.

What is electrical dynamic braking used for?
Braking is used to bring the motor to stop quickly or instantly. Braking can be two way broadly. One is mechanical braking. Other method is electrical braking. One of the electrical braking is dynamic braking.
What affects breaking distance?
Several factors can affect braking distance in a motor vehicle.Speed, the faster you are travelling means a longer braking distance.Drivers reaction time, the road surface, efficiency of the brakes, efficiency of the tyres, and any combination of these factors.
Automatic induction braking system for vehicle?
I don't see why not. It would have to be electromagets providing the magnetic field, and they would draw electricity from a generator that is powered by the motor. For electric cars, however, the brakes would draw too much power and drain the battery.
