Commercial Vehicle Technology
Our commercial vehicle training equipment covers the design and operation of air brakes, electronic braking systems and 24-volt electrics.
Learners can connect original components, measure pressure and electrical values and, depending on the model, introduce controlled faults.

Pneumatic brake systems
Original valves and flexible hoses show how a two-line, dual-circuit air-brake system is assembled.
Electronic brake systems
Depending on the rig, learners can measure and diagnose EBS, ABS and ASR functions.
24-volt commercial vehicle technology
Lighting, switches, relays, fuses and trailer components complement pneumatic training with conventional commercial vehicle electrical systems.
Pneumatics, electrics and electronics
Modern commercial vehicles rely on pneumatic, electrical and electronic systems working together. Our rigs show the individual components and how they interact.
Learners can identify valves and connections, build circuits, take measurements and investigate faults.
WABCO air brake system with EBS
Modular two-line, dual-circuit air brake system with separate truck and trailer assemblies.
The training rig combines original WABCO components with basic electrical equipment and electronic brake-system technology. This allows the design, function, diagnostics and interaction of pneumatic and electronic components to be examined in a practical way.
The modular design allows the training system to be expanded step by step and additional technologies to be integrated. Truck and trailer are built as separate mobile units.
Understand air brakes step by step
The modular rig can be used to study pneumatics first, then introduce electronic braking through EBS.
Pneumatic system
Valves, air reservoirs, lines and brake components can be examined individually and understood within the complete system.
EBS diagnostics
Electronic brake systems in the truck and trailer enable diagnostic exercises on the fully functional commercial-vehicle braking system.
Fault simulation
Defined electrical faults can be introduced via a fault-simulation interface and then systematically located.
SmartBoard
Trailer operating and system information can be displayed and evaluated for diagnostic and training tasks.
Commercial-vehicle electrical systems complement compressed-air technology
The NFZ Elektrik EL74 functional training rig also provides a compact system for conventional 24-volt electrical technology in trucks and trailers.
NFZ Elektrik EL74 functional training rig
Compact mobile training rig fitted with original 24-volt commercial-vehicle electrical components.
The setup enables practical exercises on lighting, switching, fuse and trailer circuits in commercial vehicles.
Exercises for commercial vehicle training
Depending on the lesson, students can work with individual valves and circuits or investigate the complete braking system.
Understand components
Valves, lights, relays, control units and other commercial-vehicle components can be examined directly on the real setup.
Build systems
Flexible pneumatic connections and electrical circuits make the function of individual components within the overall system easy to understand.
Measure and test
Pressures, electrical signals and switching states can be recorded systematically and used to assess the system.
Diagnose faults
Defined faults enable realistic diagnostic exercises and encourage a structured approach to troubleshooting.
Equipment for different training topics
The rigs can be used separately or together, depending on the exercises and existing facilities.
Frequently asked questions about commercial vehicle training
Which commercial vehicle braking systems can be studied?
Our equipment covers air brakes and, depending on the model, ABS, ASR and EBS. Each rig has its own range of functions.
Does BBH offer 24-volt commercial vehicle electrical training?
Yes. The NFZ Elektrik EL74 rig allows students to build and test lighting, fuse and trailer electrical circuits.
