Speed Governor or Speed Limitation Device (SLD) is a micro-controller based electronic unit, which constantly monitors the speed of a vehicle and controls the vehicle speed within the preset limit. The Product offers a variety of benefits to the fleet owners, drivers and passengers.
Why Speed Governors?
As per National Crime Records Bureau Data (2011), road accident deaths in India account for the highest amongst unnatural deaths with over 35% of total causes of deaths.
Over speeding causes the maximum accidents. Thus the solution lies in controlling over speeding of transport vehicles thereby inducing discipline amongst drivers through use of technology. Speed Governors is such a device that restricts the maximum speed of a vehicle to a preset limit.
Speed Governor consists of three basic components:
Types of Speed Governors:
1. Electronic Speed Governor
Electronic Speed Governor is a recently developed tool to provide maximum driving speed limit through an electronically controlled fuel Injection System.
2. Variable Speed Governor
An Electronic Self Programmable Speed Governor for Vehicles which is pre-programmed on the basis of speed limit specified by the government authority for different city roads & highways. Vehicle position is measured through the inbuilt GPS Receiver and Speed limit is programmed automatically from the Memory database.
3. Adaptive Speed Governor
An Electronic Speed Governor for Vehicles which is pre-programmed on the basis of speed limit specified for a specific region such as Airport, factories, institutional area, Construction Site etc.
4. Fly By Wire Electronic Speed Governor
Fly By Wire Speed Limiter*, model FBW99 is state of art technology, indigenously developed product. FBW99 is used for Speed Control of Vehicles having Electronic accelerator paddle.
The advantages of the Speed Governor are:
Driver & environment Benefit:
The Speed governor operates without effecting driving characteristics. It limits speed but leaves engine power intact. Besides improving road safety tremendously, it is and investment that results in fuel savings, reducing pollution, engine, brake and type wear.
Operation:
The brain of the Speed Limiter is an Electronics Control unit that installed to received impulses from a speed sensor and activates a solenoid to restrict fuel when the speed Limit is touched.
Easy Installation:
The Speed Governor is designed for a very easy and simple fitment as against the other designs based on accelerator control which take more than an hour.
Speed Limitation:
The Speed Governor does not affect the acceleration in any way.
Approvals and Certifications:
Vehicle Tracking Solutions(VTS):
A Vehicle Tracking Solution (VTS) is a part of an Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) which is basically an application aims to provide innovative services related with different modes of effective transport management and enable users to be better informed and make safer, more coordinated, and ‘smarter’ use of transports. Passenger information system (PIS) is an integrated solution which provides the passengers with information about the buses to plan their journey. The solution not only helps travellers plan their journey but also track the Expected time of Arrival for ETA and Schedule time for Departure (STD) of their buses.
All the Vehicles (Buses, Trucks, Ambulances, Autos, Taxis etc) are enabled with GPS fitted devices which are being monitored on real-time basis. Location of the vehicles are tracked on the live map as they move from point to point.
