Do not step on the brakes without water - Fast's "Downhill Artifact" runs smoothly in Yunan

Chuanyu is said to have "difficulty and difficulty in getting on the blue sky"; Yungui has the title of "high mountains, deep valleys, and ravines," and truck drivers who travel all year long have a deep understanding of this.

Recently, a truck driver was anxiously waiting for a “thirsty smoke” car to “drink water” at Bodhisattva Service Station on Ya’an Expressway in Yunguichuan. The tires were surrounded by white gas and were close to the horse. Feel the heat blowing. In front of it, there are still 3 to 4 heavy vehicles lining up. In the empty service station, Shaanxi Automobile's tractor Zheng, who installed the FAST hydraulic retarder, was quietly a "beauty man."

This is the protagonist of the Fast IELTS road test for the Fast Retarder. With a load of 49 tons, the driver was found to have no water tank. The driver expressed surprise.

Not long ago, the FAST Special Hydraulic Retarder Test Drive Test Tour with the theme “Safety of Heavy Trucks” was set off from Xi’an and planned to pass through the provinces and cities of East China, South China, Southwest China etc. The total itinerary will exceed 6,000 km. The purpose is to allow users to understand the scene of the event and personally test drive the vehicle equipped with a hydraulic retarder, so that the user experience more intuitive understanding and understanding of Fast Retarder. The reporter had the privilege of participating in the road test of the Iasi highway section.

"Downhill artifact" to liberate the feet

Because of long-term braking on the long slope, tires are prone to "high fever," and in severe cases can cause tires to self-ignite. Traditionally, the method of “fevering” the tires is to add water tanks to heavy vehicles to cool the tires with water. However, there are serious drawbacks. If you encounter hub bursts, it will easily lead to vehicle damage and heavy losses. Therefore, some provinces and cities will be referred to as "invisible killer" sprinkler has long been included in the black list of road transport safety.

However, Yunguichuan has high-grade slopes and long downhill slopes, with an average gradient of -3.16%. Long downhill slopes as long as 20 kilometers or more are more commonplace for drivers. Due to its special road conditions, the Yunguichuan area allows owners to use this method. Therefore, the Yunguichuan high-speed trucks and water tanks are standard. The roads here have long-term traces of water left by the carts.

The old driver, Master Yang, who has more than 20 years of driving experience, is responsible for driving this road test. After the start of the drive test, when he was approaching the first long downhill slope of 22 kilometers, he saw Yang master gently toggle the hydraulic retarder gear switch and shift it to the 1st gear. "This is constant. The accompanying sirens Liu Xiaolong told reporters that the constant speed gear can make the retarder ensure the car runs at a constant speed within the maximum braking torque range.

Immediately after Master Yang made a staggering move, he let go of his feet before the brakes and liberated it with ease. Then this test was easily completed at a speed of 60 km/h.

Subsequently, the reporter successively participated in the road test of 8 km, 26 km, and 50 km long downhill. What impressed the reporter was that in the 50km test, a heavy goods truck buttocks blew past the white smoke and the red brake light on the rear of the car was on. Master Yang was relaxed and relaxed in the road test, his feet were liberated, and his hands were lightly placed on the steering wheel. “Under the long slope, the driver’s brakes will cause the brakes to become 'soft' for a long time. Once the emergency brakes fail, this is why you see the many safe-haven lanes on both sides of the road, and the reasons for self-rescue rampage.” Liu Xiaolong explained.

During the entire road test on the Iasi high-speed road, the road test vehicle did not add any water. After each long descent, the reporters could use the hand to directly touch the temperature of the tire. After a professional thermometer test, the temperature was about 40. Degree, compared with 100 degrees of ordinary car tires, the performance of Fast Retarder really shocked the reporter. This "downhill artifact" will effectively solve the long-disturbed trouble of long-distance drivers.

Save costs in one year

During the road test, the service area and the road test vehicle were all watched by the driver. Everyone wanted to see the true features of the artifacts. The sales staff and engineers of Fast were accompanied by the patient's patience to help users answer questions. In general, users are most concerned about the cost of installing this artifact. "The conversion will cost about 24,000 yuan, and the original installation cost will increase by 18,000," said Wang Lian, sales manager.

At first glance, this is a big price for domestic customers who are extremely price sensitive. However, the actual situation is not the case. At Bodhisattva Service Station, a truck driver who drove Auman told reporters that he had run Dali, Xishuangbanna, and Iasi for a long period of time. He had a brake replacement cycle of once every six months. The mileage was about 20,000 kilometers and the cost was about 1,800 yuan. ~1900 yuan. In the Rongjing service area, a driver who pulled milk told reporters that his cart needs to replace brake pads every 2 to 30 thousand kilometers, and the time period is every 8 months. Replacement of brake pads costs 2,000 yuan.

Based on the data collected by reporters, Wang Lian calculated an account for everyone. With the retarder installed, the tire wear speed is reduced. The average tire cost is 2,000 yuan and the service life is 3 years. The average annual operating fee is about 700 yuan. The entire vehicle can use 22 tires for one year and save 15,400 yuan. Replace the brake pads for 1,800 yuan for the entire vehicle, and the hydraulic retarder can increase the mileage from 20,000 kilometers to 150,000 kilometers. In addition, plus the cost of water-spraying and the time cost of watering, it is no problem to save more than 20,000 in a year. As a result, the cost of use has not risen significantly. This makes the drivers of the carts feel at ease.

After the end of the Iasi Highway test, the reporter and the Fast team were separated and they will continue to set foot on the journey to Guangxi. Up to now, the footprint of the Fast Retarder test drive test tour has covered Jiangxi, Fujian, Guangdong, and Sichuan, with a total mileage of 16,000 kilometers and a time of more than 40 days. 700 people have participated in the test. Driving and wherever they went, the team members actively promoted the functions, principles and economic benefits of Fast Reactor to the users. The users showed great interest in the products, and the feedback of the test drive and tour activities was also very good. The activity has achieved substantial results. In the near future, we will probably see the Fast Retarder on many domestic trucks. "As fast-changing status of the Fast heavy-duty truck, we are confident that we will push the Fast Retarder to the same position in the industry." Wang Li-an said confidently.
