Digital Speed Limiters

Category: Automotive Solutions

In Kenya, speed limiters are a mandatory requirement for all Commercial Vehicles (with tare weight exceeding 3 tons) and Passenger Service Vehicles (PSVs). The KS 2295-1:2018 standard specifies requirements for the performance and installation of devices designed to limit the maximum road speed of motor vehicles by control of engine power.

As per the NTSA regulations that require all vehicles to have a digital speed limiter, we introduced a system that regulates and records the speed of the vehicle at any given time.

Types Of Road Speed Limiters

a) Fuel Type Speed Limiter (DASS-86)

DASS-86 is a fuel-based electronic road speed limiter which limits the top speed smoothly by gradually cutting off the fuel supply to the engine, once the maximum allowed speed limit is reached. The device helps operators to improve engine life, fuel efficiency and reduce the overall maintenance cost. The product is ideal for fleets where the cost of device could be recovered within a month.
