ThrottleStop Heavy Duty Trucks
Product Description
Diesel engine trucks used in transporting, storing, or manufacturing hazardous materials face a serious risk of diesel engine runaway and potentially fatal consequences. The ThrottleStop Overspeed Protection System provides a simplified, plug-and-play safety solution specifically designed for heavy-duty trucks.
This system uses a preprogrammed module that continuously monitors RPMs and automatically triggers the throttle valve to close when engine speed exceeds the set limit. ThrottleStop adds a critical extra layer of safety for both people and property.
