Multiquip EE57140 Breakaway Battery Kit

The Multiquip EE57140 Breakaway Battery Kit is a genuine OEM component designed for the Multiquip Water Trailer series, including the WT5C, WTE5C, WT5CSG, WT5HP, WTE5HP, and WT5HPSG. As a direct OEM replacement, this kit ensures that the breakaway braking system receives the correct power supply needed to function exactly as the trailer was engineered to operate. Sourced directly through authorized Multiquip channels, the EE57140 is the correct specification part for these trailer models and installs without guesswork.

Key Features

• OEM-Correct Battery Specification — Matched to the exact voltage and capacity required by the Multiquip breakaway brake actuator, ensuring the system activates with the power it was designed to receive.
• Direct-Fit Replacement — Engineered to seat directly into the existing breakaway battery housing on compatible Water Trailer models, maintaining the integrity of the original wiring and actuator connection.
• Compatible with WT5C, WTE5C, WT5CSG, WT5HP, WTE5HP, and WT5HPSG — Verified fitment across the full Multiquip Water Trailer lineup covered by this part number.
• Emergency Braking System Power — A fresh, correctly specified battery is what allows the breakaway system to apply the trailer brakes independently if the trailer separates from the tow vehicle — a depleted or incorrect battery means the system cannot respond.
• Safety-Critical Compliance — Breakaway battery systems are required by law for certain trailer GVW ratings on public roads; using the OEM-specified EE57140 ensures the system meets the trailer's original compliance standard.

The breakaway battery is the power source for a trailer's emergency brake actuator — a safety device that automatically applies the trailer brakes if the trailer becomes disconnected from the tow vehicle. When the trailer separates, a lanyard pulls a pin from the actuator, and the battery immediately supplies current to engage the brakes and bring the trailer to a stop. If the battery is weak, discharged, or the wrong specification, the system cannot generate enough power to apply the brakes, leaving a runaway trailer with no stopping force. Regular replacement of the breakaway battery keeps this critical safety system in a ready state at all times.
