The Brake Manufacturers Council announced today that SAE’s Performance Review Institute (PRI) will administer the Brake Effectiveness Evaluation Procedure (BEEP) program.
"This enhances the BEEP certification program as a truly third-party certification program," said Pat Healey, Executive Director of the BMC.
The BEEP program uses the SAE J2430 brake dynamometer standard and the BMC’s vehicle specific dynamometer test data model. This standard, in conjunction with systematic yet cost-effective testing and audits, validates the conformance confidence with the FMVSS requirements of automotive brake friction materials used in passenger cars and light duty trucks in North America.
