Vacuum Reservoir – Stable Brake Boost for EV Conversions & Custom Builds
Consistent Vacuum Supply. Smoother Braking. Built for Electric Systems.
The Vacuum Reservoir is an essential component for EV conversions and custom electric vehicle builds that retain a vacuum-assisted brake booster. In electric drivetrains—where a traditional engine vacuum source is absent—this reservoir ensures that your brake vacuum pump doesn’t need to run constantly, reducing pump cycling, noise, and wear while providing reliable, consistent brake boost when you need it most.
Built from durable materials and designed to integrate seamlessly into any vacuum-assist braking system, this reservoir is the perfect complement to your electric vacuum pump setup, especially in performance builds, regenerative braking systems, or lightweight EV conversions.
⚙️ Key Features:
Consistent Vacuum Supply: Maintains pressure stability for smoother, more responsive braking
Reduces Pump Cycling: Minimizes wear and noise from your vacuum pump by reducing on/off frequency
Universal Compatibility: Works with all 12V vacuum pump kits (Hella, LEED, Tesla pumps, etc.)
Durable Construction: Aluminum or reinforced plastic reservoir options (depending on model)
Pre-Tapped Ports: Easy integration with vacuum lines, check valves, and sensors
Compact Design: Installs easily in engine bays, under dash, or frame-mounted configurations
🔩 Technical Specifications:
Volume: 1.0 to 2.5 liters (model dependent)
Port Size: 3/8” NPT or barb-style fittings
Material: Powder-coated aluminum or heavy-duty polymer (choose at checkout)
Operating Pressure Range: –27 inHg (vacuum)
Mounting: Integrated tabs or universal strap kits
Dimensions: Varies by model; compact form factors available
Check Valve Compatibility: Works with all common brake vacuum check valves
🛠️ Ideal For:
Electric Vehicle Conversions (cars, trucks, motorcycles)
Regenerative Braking Systems with Vacuum Boosters
Hybrid Builds or Plug-in Retrofits
Off-Road and Lightweight Utility EVs
Race Cars or Performance EVs with High Brake Demand
