Hydraulic Retarder Technical Overview & Application Guide
(Professional Technical Documentation)
The Hydraulic Retarder (also known as a hydrodynamic retarder) is an advanced auxiliary braking system that converts vehicle kinetic energy into thermal energy via fluid dynamics, enabling controlled deceleration without mechanical wear. It is widely used in heavy-duty vehicles and industrial machinery to enhance safety, reduce main brake wear, and improve operational efficiency47.
