An actuating unit for a brake system, comprises a pedal connection element that charges a booster piston with an actuating force. An elastically deformable reaction disk, absorbs the actuating and boosting forces of the booster and releases the sum of said forces to a working piston. An electrically controllable pressure supply device outputs pressure which acts upon the booster piston. The actuating unit further comprises an extension arm for detecting the differential path between the pedal connection element and the booster piston and a sensor device that detects the differential path. An electronic control unit receives the signals from the sensor device and uses said signals for controlling the pressure supply device. Differential path information is transported by the extension arm to a location near the sensor device that is radially and axially offset by the reaction disk.
