Mobile Awareness introduces TireStat, the next generation of TPMS (Tire Pressure Monitoring & Maintenance System) products geared toward commercial trucks, trailers, buses, off-road, construction, utility vehicles and RVs.
TireStat is a complete and effective tire pressure monitoring system that provides increased fuel economy, enhanced safety, maximized tire casing life and extended tire wear, states the company. The lightweight sensors are mounted externally on the valve stem, allowing air input without sensor removal, and TireStat is preprogrammed by wheel position for effortless installation, yet can be easily altered by the user. This exclusive design allows customers to optionally program their own warning alert levels by axle position, offering improved management of fuel and tire expense. For fleet owners this provides a faster ROI, simplicity of driver participation and low on-going maintenance since there are no issues due to lost sensors.
TireStat not only detects under-inflated, over-inflated and rapid leaking tires, it also monitors tire temperature. Knowing when a tire exceeds a safe operating temperature, even when the tire pressure appears to be in a normal range, is vitally important to maximize tire life, extend the ability to retread and enhance driver safety. |
