Control to the instant and reliable of the pressesure of the tyres
“According to several studies, more than 90% of the failures in tyres are due to losses of pressesure in the same. Thanks to ContiPressesureCheck now will be able to delete of effective form these problems”, affirms Herbert Mensching, director of Marketing and Sales of tyres of trucks for Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA). The system of control of pressesure of the air of Continental no only contributes to avoid failures in the tyres, but it also helps to reduce the costs of operation. In Germany, the tyres of the commercial vehicles tend to be inflados with an average of 12% less than pressesure of air of the necessary. This increases the resistance to the rodadura and does that they increase the consumption of fuel and the broadcasts of CO2. In fact, even small faults of pressesure increase the flexión of the tyres, increasing his sobrecalentamiento, and reducing his useful life. On the other hand, an excessive pressesure in the tyre increases the wear or causes deformations, factors that also diminish his useful life.
ContiPressesureCheck Deletes these problems measuring each few second the pressesure of the air and the temperature of each tyre of the tow, showing the values in the screen of information in the cabin of the driver. The system composes of integrated cheese cheese sensors, processor of data and system of transmission in an only module. This unit is lodged in a carcasa of rubber that installs in the interior of the band of rodadura. ContiPressesureCheck Can install in any mark of tyres.
The processor registers continuously the values of the pressesure of air and temperature obtained through the sensors and sends them by wireless transmission to the receptor of the truck and of the tow. This electronic unit of control transmits the already evaluated data to the screen in the cabin of the driver. Here, the driver can consult them anytime and watch the state of his tyres in real time. If the pressesure of real air diverts of the marked in the specifications, ContiPressesureCheck warns immediately to the driver so that it go back to adjust the pressesure of the air in the tyre. The system issues besides an alarm in case to produce a loss of sudden pressesure.
ContiPressesureCheck Is the only system of monitoring of the pressesure of tyres that generates data of pressesure and temperature by means of installed sensors in the interior of the own tyre. This has the advantage that the device remains protected of the impacts, and that the sensors can measure the values of temperature directly in the tyre. Besides when being installed in this position, the no annoying sensor when mounting the tyre. The system is fast and simple to mount, and can also be added later, in any change of tyres. If it is necessary to change the tyres, is possible to disassemble the module and mount it in the new tyres to continue his utilisation. The life of the batteries is of roughly six years or 600.000 kilometres, above the useful life of a tyre. ContiPressesureCheck Will be available in the European market from the spring of 2013, beginning by Germany, Poland, countries of the Benelux and Turkey.
