Wouldn’t it be great to have a system that continuously measures the pressure and temperature of all tires on your vehicle – even when you are driving. A system like this would help save fuel and increase mileage because properly inflated tires can improve fuel efficiency by 3.3 percent and (U.S. Department of Energy) underinflation can lead to a 1% lower fuel mileage for every 10 psi.
Such a system would also significantly reduce the risk of tire failure, whilst maintaining the value of the casing, and thus the retreadability.
That system exists today in for form of ContiPressureCheck, but until recently, you may not have been getting all the information you may have needed (only if your tire pressure was too high or too low).
But with the latest enhancements to Zonar’s ZAlerts, fleet manager can now see when the follow occur:
• Tire Pressure Leaks
• Rapid air loss that will lead to a flat tire
• Tire Temperature Condition
• Outside of normal operating temperature which indicates abnormal behaviors and decreases tire life, and wear
• Tire Sensor Condition
• No response from the sensor
• Tire jams
• Rotation problems
• Loose sensors
With ContiPressureCheck and the latest alerts available to you, your fleet can avoid breakdowns and increase uptime with real-time notifications when tires are leaking, due to tire failure. You can also extend the usable life of your tires by identifying which tires are overheating and need attention. When tires overheat, wear on your tread is increased and can impact the sidewall integrity overtime. With these alerts, you can spot the problem early to address the symptom before it leads to a tire failure.
Don’t let another another tire failure cost you $338 on average. Get yourself the insights into your vehicle(s) operations.
