Companies Announce Real Time TPMS

Par Logistics Management Systems, a subsidiary of Par Technology, along with Advantage PressurePro LLC, have announced the introduction of what has been called first real time tyre pressure management system for the transportation industry. For the first time trailer managers can be given real time information on trailer location, temperature, fuel levels and door activity while also receiving critical alerts on reefer failures, rapid fuel loss and now, insufficient tyre pressure. Automated alerts can be sent via e-mail or text message.

“We are proud to be integrating our technology with that of Par’s,” commented Phillip Zaroor, president and CEO of PressurePro. “PressurePro continues to be committed to bringing the best possible TPM Solutions to the market, with the latest in cutting edge technologies. This partnership allows us to do just that, bringing to the market a genuinely complete solution.”

Combined, the systems will provide the tyre pressure information needed to increase fuel efficiency, cut downtime, extend tyre life and improve handling and performance, while also providing a complete management system contributing engine diagnostics, tracking and much more, the companies said. John Sammon III, vice president of Par Logistics, said: “We are thrilled to announce our strategic alliance with PressurePro as we are confident that the merging of solutions will have an exponential effect on how fleet managers value our telematic solutions. Real time monitoring of trailers coupled with reliable sensors for fuel and tyres just makes good economic sense these days.”
