| With the TPMS, you can: |
| Monitor the Air Pressure in Each Tire |
The TPMS alerts you when the air pressure in a tire falls above or below the preset limit. |
| |
- Increased Fuel Efficiency
- Extended Tread Live
- Reduced Carbon Emissions
- Decreased Maintenance Cost
- Reduced Roadside Downtime
- Added Safety
- Enhanced Vehicle Handling
- Greater Stability and Braking
- Less Damage to Casings
- Lower Insurance Costs due to Lower Accident Rate
|
| Monitor the Temperature of Each Tire |
The TPMS alerts you when the temperature of a tire exceeds the preset limit. |
| Monitor Tire Pressure and Temperature Remotely |
Tire pressure alerts can also be transmitted in real time to the dispatch center and/or the Maintenance Department.
The Dispatch Center can locate and track vehicles on a map using the Greyhawk AVL Tracker. |
How the TMPS Works
|
|
| Sensors: Screw onto the valve stem of your vehicle’s tires, replacing your dust cap, and transmit pressure and temperature readings through the bridge to the MDC via a coded RF signal. |
| Monitor: Displays each tire’s pressure and sends audible and visual alerts to pressure drops and raises. The Monitor alerts at 3 levels. The first alert occurs when pressures drop by more than 12.5%. A second, more urgent alert, at a 25% drop and a third, variable high pressure alert at your determined threshold. (If you have the GreyHawk MDC system, the MDC replaces the monitor in your vehicle.) |
The Greyhawk MDC Interface
|
|
The Receiver Bridge recognizes and reads pressures from the bus’s sensors automatically and passes them on to the GreyHawk MDC.
|
|
The GreyHawk MDC replaces the Pressure Pro Monitor and displays the status of the sensors to the drivers as well as alerts due to falling pressure. Tire pressure alerts can also be transmitted in real time to the dispatch center and/or the Maintenance Department.
|
|

|
The GreyHawk MDC also acts as a “Wizard” to guide the installers through the set up process.
