Real-time Tire Pressure Monitoring

fleetnewsdaily | October 9, 2012

For added safety and convenience: the Doran 360HDTM tire pressure monitoring system includes a display that is mounted in the cab of the truck that continuously monitors tire pressure and temperature data.

This info is received through radio frequency signals transmitted from wireless sensors that are mounted in place of the valve stem caps on each tire.

Real-Time Pressure Alerts:
The display creates the following visual and audible alerts when problems with the tire pressure develop including:

FastLeakTM warning (patent pending): triggered when the pressure drops 2.8psi within 12 seconds regardless of the baseline tire pressure
Level I low pressure warning: initiated when a 12.5% drop from the programmed baseline tire pressure occursLevel II low pressure warning: activated with a 25% drop from the programmed baseline tire pressure
High pressure alarm (optional): can be set to provide warnings with a 25% increase over the programmed baseline tire pressure

The initial installation and programming of a Doran 360HDTM is expected to take an hour by following these basic steps:

Mount and hardwire the 12-volt display/monitor in the cab
A remote antenna kit is recommended to move the reception point out of the cab to improve the reliability of the RF signal reception
Use the three-digit laser etched serial number on each sensor to program each wheel position with baseline tire pressure
Install the wireless sensors by simply screwing them on to the valve stem
