TYRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM

TPMS systems measure the pressure in individual tyres, using sensors mounted on the wheel rim, on the inside of the tyre and can be applied to all types of LCVs and HDVs. TPMS system detects under-inflation in each tire by monitoring tyre pressure and temperature inside the tire. As a standard function of our TPMS an air temperature measurement of each tire is available and visible in cockpit or/and monitoring platform.

TPMS has the advantage of determining absolute pressure values, low risk of (un)intentional misuse and high accuracy and advantage of 5 years lifetime of sensor batteries.

Based on an review of current products and suppliers it can be concluded that TPMS for application in LCVs and HDVs are a technically and economically mature product. Expected future developments are mainly directed at improved performance. TPMS increases functionality by connecting vehicle TPMS information to fleet management systems.

Main advantages of implementing TMPS are

Fuel consumption reduction: up to 15%

Increasing tire lifetime: up to 30%

CO2 emissions reduction.
