Brakeaway Units – Brakesafe
Brakesafe Brake away units are Australian designed, made and assembled to comply with Australian trailer regulations and to withstand Australian Conditions.
The new Breaksafe comes with all the features that you have come to expect in the previous Breaksafe models. The Breaksafe 6000 & Breaksafe 6000XP have the addition of many innovative new features including easy access to the battery compartment for servicing and fully enclosed internal circuit board case for better water resistance.
The Breaksafe Breakaway System has been designed to activate the electric brake system and brake lights on all caravans, travel trailers, trailers, horse floats and campers in the event of an accidental separation (e.g. Breakaway).
Breaksafe will not only apply the electric brakes and the brake lights of the trailer, but will keep them applied for around 20 minutes, enabling you to secure your trailer when it has come to a stop.
Breaksafe has its own power supply, which charges via an auxiliary line while driving, or it can be charged externally with a battery charger. It also has a battery condition indicator, allowing you to tell the condition of the battery, with the push of a button.
Each Breaksafe kit comes complete with battery, coil cable breakaway switch and all mounting hardware, as well as full installation instructions.
Suits caravans, trailers & horse floats.
Suits all electric brakes.
Compact and easy to install.
Enclosed & sealed lead acid battery.
Recharges off car battery.

The BREAKSAFE RM6000 Remote Battery Monitor is fitted inside the tow vehicle and operates each time the brake pedal is pressed. The additional circuitry in the BREAKSAFE 5000 and 6000 disconnects the Breaksafe battery from the charge circuit and then connects the battery to the Remote Monitor. A small electronic load inside the Remote Monitor then pulls the battery terminal voltage down. The micro-processor inside the Remote Monitor measures what the voltage drops to over a preset time to determine the charge state of the Breaksafe battery. Should the Breaksafe battery be fully charged, a green light will illuminate on the front panel of the RM6000 Remote Monitor. If the battery is below the safe level, a red light will flash and a buzzer will sound for about 10 seconds.
The RM6000 Remote Battery Monitor can only be used in conjunction with a Breaksafe 5000 or 6000 breakaway kit. It will not work correctly when connected to any other breakaway system.
