Abstract: The invention relates to a current measuring resistor (1) for measuring an electrical current, in particular in the kA range, in a high-voltage network. The current measuring resistor (1) according to the invention comprises two connection parts (2, 3) for conducting the electrical current in and out and a resistance element (4) made of a low-impedance resistive material. The resistance element (4) is arranged between the two connection parts (2, 3) in the direction of current flow and is joined to the two connection parts (2, 3), such that the electrical current to be measured flows through the resistance element (4) during operation and produces a voltage drop across the resistance element (4). According to the invention, the connection parts (2, 3) and the resistance element (4) each have a substantially round cross section, in particular a substantially circular cross section, in a section plane perpendicular to the direction of current flow of the electrical current.

Abstract: A method is for operating a parking brake system with a spring-loaded brake and a control module in a motor vehicle or trailer. The control module is connected to a parking brake circuit. The method includes supplying the parking brake circuit with reservoir pressure. The method further includes applying spring-loaded accumulator holding pressure to the spring-loaded brake cylinders in order to have the spring-loaded brake assume a release position, wherein the spring-loaded accumulator holding pressure is less than the reservoir pressure in the parking brake circuit.

Abstract: A valve unit for modulating pressure in a pneumatic brake system includes an inlet valve and an outlet valve, which are designed as diaphragm valves, and via which a brake pressure outlet can be connected to a brake pressure inlet or a vent outlet or can be shut off relative thereto. The valve unit further includes two pilot valves, designed as 3/2-way solenoid valves, via each of which a control chamber adjoining a diaphragm of an associated diaphragm valve can be supplied with a control pressure via a control pressure line. The diaphragm valves are arranged radially adjacent to each other. The inlet valve and/or the outlet valve is/are each designed as a springless diaphragm valve and in that the associated control pressure line opens, in each case centrally and in an axially oriented manner, into the control chamber of the relevant diaphragm valve.
