And these things really do save money, I have a truck in my shop that wore out the S-cams and bushings, but the linings are still easily 70%.

*engine brakes, exhaust brakes, and still use a Telma. Company I work for uses them on a wide scale.
-
Volvo's can be and have been equipped with Telmas. I've seen trucks equipped with engine
-
i know for a fact that volvo do not use these, they use a combination of engine and exhaust brake to slow the truck and i bet its a dam sight more reliable than this!

Retarders Can cause the vehicle to skid when the road is slippery !!

@CabalaCicero and me i love those 90s trucks..!@!!

Yes, I absolutely agree!
The man in the film said, "very robust".
Driving downhill, using the TELMA mostly ... TELMA gets hot and if you stop the vehicle after using TELMA - there's not enough time for it to cool so either it starts burning (rarely) or even it will take a bit damage.
So if you have to drive in the Alps (for example like me everyday with the school bus) and you have to stop right after the hill - either you do not use the TELMA very often or you will destroy it sooner or later.

I love these 90's style musics during documents and informational videos.

Well, I guess you will remove my comment but, I have to give a word of advice out there.
When the coils are actuated, to dissipate the energy of the moving truck they will heat up badly and if you're going downhill with a heavy load and with that type of retarder actuated for some time, it WILL catch fire.
Better than nothing, that's for sure but, stay on the look out for over-heating the retarder.
How do I know?
I've been there...
Cheers!
