ContiConnect Live now available for truck trailers

The ContiConnect Live digital solution now offers remote, real time tyre monitoring for truck trailers. The system is equally suitable for freestanding and coupled trailers and utilises a telematics unit to record tyre sensor data and send it to the ContiConnect portal. This data provides continuous information about tyre inflation and temperature. Even when untethered from a power unit, the telematics device’s rechargeable battery allows for daily readings for up to 28 days.

In addition to reducing tyre-related breakdowns and reducing costs, ContiConnect Live for trailers also offers a GPS-based track and trace feature that provides fleet managers with full visibility on the exact position of all their assets.

“ContiConnect Live gives the fleet the tremendous benefit of knowing if there is a tyre inflation issue that can be addressed even before the trailer is connected with a truck,” says Clarisa Doval, head of Digital Solutions at Continental Tires. “With the ContiConnect Live solution, fleets can achieve and deliver the lowest overall driving cost.”
