Bendix Ultimate Tow Plus Portable Electric Brake Controller - ULTTOWPLUS

Plug ‘n’ Play

With its clever ‘Plug ‘n’ Play’ design and simple self-installation, Bendix’s new Ultimate Tow+™ Portable Electric Brake Controller makes it easy and fast for drivers to move between tow vehicles, trailers and caravans.

Easily interchangeable between vehicles and towables

Rather than being limited to a single tow vehicle with a fixed brake controller, Bendix’s Ultimate Tow+™ Portable Electric Brake Controller’s flexibility allows any vehicle equipped with a towbar to be used with any trailer fitted with electric brakes. Be it at work or home, if the regular tow vehicle is already committed, the Ultimate Tow+™ Portable Electric Brake Controller is the solution being ‘ready to tow’ in just minutes.

Precise braking control

Controlling braking effort is easy thanks to a simple user interface – with a twist of a dial (clockwise increases braking effort while anticlockwise reduces it), drivers have complete control. Most systems only offer 12 levels of braking, while the Bendix Ultimate Tow+™ Portable Electric Brake Controller features 30 levels of fine digital force adjustment, allowing users to closely modulate their braking over a range of towing conditions.

Safe and tough

Designed and made in Australia, Bendix’s The Ultimate Tow+™ Portable Electric Brake Controller features an IP67-rated trailer module that’s suitable for river crossings and beach driving.

It’s also heavy on safety features including a fault monitoring system that alerts the driver in real time through both visual and audible alarms if power to the brake controller is lost or if the trailer plug comes undone while driving. Additionally, the system utilises fail safe braking methods so that even if the signal drops out or the in-cabin controller is disconnected, the trailer brakes will still be activated at the last used settings, in tandem with the vehicle brake pedal.

A secure, encrypted re-pairing function allows a single remote to be used with multiple trailers and ensures no interference between trailers with similar systems nearby. Real-time encrypted data transmission prevents replay attacks, ensuring secure and reliable operation.

Install – remove – install. It’s easy

The Ultimate Tow+™ Portable Electric Brake Controller is easy to self-install with no holes in the dash or additional wiring needed thanks to its ‘Plug ‘n’ Play’ design, which includes a patch harness that easily mounts between vehicles’ existing seven and/or 12-pin trailer / caravan plugs, which then secures to the ‘A’ frame with reusable heavy-duty straps.

The user interface is mounted using the included commercially available phone style mounts, allowing it to be easily positioned on widely available mobile phone car mounts. The kit comes with magnetic mounting options for a vent, or a 3M backed mount as well.
