Bowmonk Brakemeter
In the UK, Bowmonk brake test meters are approved by the MOT and DOT departments for use in the annual vehicle-testing scheme. Wherever brake testing is mandatory by law the Bowmonk Brakemeter/Dynometer is an approved brake test instrument.
This unit is a scientific instrument, indisputable in its accuracy as it is based on one of the basic laws of applied physics. It consists of a finely balanced pendulum free to respond to any changes in speed or angle, working through a quadrant gear train to rotate a needle round a dial. The dial is black with silver white graduations and having a linear length of 5 1/2 inches (114mm). To damp out all vibration, the instrument is filled with a special fluid not sensitive to changes in temperature. No maintenance is necessary.
