Baolong Promotes CV TPMS

Shanghai Baolong has embarked on a new publicity campaign promoting its commercial vehicle tyre pressure monitoring system (CV TPMS). The system is designed to permanently monitor both the tyre pressure and temperature and warns the driver in the event of a dangerous pressure loss or overheating, making an important contribution to road safety and fuel economy. The system is already available for use as a stand alone system or integrated into all classes of commercial vehicles – including trailers and semi-trailers.

Each battery-powered wheel transmitter installed inside the tyre measures the pressure and temperature every four seconds, together with the individual ID code of the transmitter, these values are sent by RF to the receiver via transceiver at 30-seconds intervals. The receiver evaluates the data, identifies the transmitter and decides whether or not the driver needs to be informed.

Baolong’s TPMS features an identification tool that solves the problems caused by frequent trailer and wheel changes. By using an internationally patented ID module installed in the display automatically, the system identifies whether or not the transmitter has the required ID code.

Baolong’s CV TPMS provides 24-hour monitoring for up to 24 wheels or 6 axles, the wheel transmitter is designed for installation in any wheel rim measuring pressure up to 188PSI (13Bar). Customers can preset the baseline pressure according to different types of tyres’ standard cold inflation pressure. The service life of the electronics is more than five years and can be used at temperatures of –40°C to +125 °C. The CV TPMS can be installed not only as a stand alone system in the aftermarket but also integrated into the vehicle in the OEM market.

The CV TPMS consists of an integrated display & receiver unit fixed to the windshield, wheel transmitters fixed to every wheel, high frequency antennae and transceiver. Since the wheel transmitters are mounted inside the tyre, they are protected against ambient influences such as exposure outside for rain and salt, mechanical stress as it occurs especially on construction vehicles and possible vandalism.
