Tech/Engineering - Engineering (general) / train braking system

German term or phrase: Zubas

am führenden Tfz Zusatzbremse pneumatisch abgesperrt:
Traktionssperre ... mit Sifa-Störschalter überbrückbar
Nullstellungszwang für Traktionssollwert
(wieder öffnen)

am geführten Tfz ***Zubas*** geöffnet:
am führenden Tfz Meldung (keine Traktionssperre)
(wieder schließen)

can anybody think what this means ? It's either a typo or an invented word.

Possibly ZUB = ATC, but it doesn't seem to make sense

Absperrhahn "Direkte Bremse"

Explanation:
Ich würde "ZuBas" - je nach Umstand - wahrscheinlich stehen lassen. Es scheint sich hier um einen Bahn/UIC Fachausdruck zu handeln, denn in dem ungarischen Link, den ich unten gebe (Seite 152) gibt es auch einen ZuBas.
Bei dem entsprechenden deutschen Link steht "Absperrhahn "Direkte Bremse" (ZuBas).
