Why TPMS?


■Truck fleets recognize that tires are "capital goods" for them.

■The deficiency of pressure is 0.6 bar, the rolling resistance increases by 20%, which can increase fuel consumption by 6% and overall expenditure by close to 2 %.

■ Professional tire resource management, therefore, can significantly lower operating cost-per-mile.

Approximate 75% of all running tires are underinflated.-U.S.A National Highway Traffic Safety Administration

An estimated 23,464 crashes and 535 fatal crashes annually involve blowouts or flat tires.

Decreased Tire Life with Lower Pressure (Source: Continental Tires)

Tire Loss


According to Continental Tires’ research, we assume that:* Average yearly tire loss is between 15%;*There is around 15% from blow-out, 80% of blow-out is from under-inflated;*TPMS can help fleet to extend tire life at least 20%;*Average price of a truck tire is EUR300.00.

Thus, a 100 12-wheel fleet would save:21.6 pcs blow-out tires which are worth 6,480 EURO;Tire life about 30.6 pcs which are worth 9,180 EURO.

* ThereforeWith TPMS Whole fleet can save:(6,480 + 9,180) = 15,660EURO/year on tires.156.6 EURO of tire saving for one truck in one year.


This Figure has shown us that the corresponding effect of inflation pressure on the fuel consumption of a typical tractor-trailer at 55 MPH on a level highway. 20% percent under-inflation of tires results in about a 3 percent decrease.

Fuel Loss


According to Goodyear’s research, we assume that:* 50% of a year is running under-inflated * Fuel Consumption (Without TPMS): 39.2 L/ 100km* Avg. Annual Fuel Consumption : 6,6640 L* Fuel Cost Per Year: 85,299.2 € (1.28 €/L—Avg. retail price

per litre in Europe October 2008)

A 100 vehicles fleet covering an average of 170,000 km each per year would save:

100 x 85,299.2€ x 50% x3 %=127,949 €


It is difficult to visually determine the under-inflated level, as the 30% pressure lower looks like proper inflated tire.

Introduction


Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) for trucks and buses is a valuable vehicle safety device that drivers should always consider.

Valor TPMS provide peace of mind and safety, maximize fuel savings and tire life, and environment-friendly.

Safety

Savings

Environment


Valor TPMS-203 has been developed specifically for the challenges of tire pressure monitoring on large-scale and multi-wheeled fleets operating in fast-moving logistics.

Each battery-powered wheel transmitter installed inside the tire measuring the pressure and temperature every 4 seconds, the data of tractor wheels are sent to display directly, the data of trailer wheels are sent to transceiver which transfer to display wirelessly. The integrated display evaluates the data, identifies the transmitter and decides whether or not the driver needs to be informed.

Each display has an exclusive ID register, they have same ID code. The ID register is used to send the ID code to transceiver so that the transceiver can confirm which display it should transfer data to.

Principle of TPMS-203


TPMS is abbreviation of Tire Pressure Monitoring System, it’s a reliable proactive safety device which always monitors pressure and temperature of each tire in both driving and parking. If the sensor gets the abnormal conditions such as high pressure, low pressure, high temperature and leakage, it will immediately send signal toreceiver wirelessly, then the display gives driver an alarm of danger.

The system consists of receiver-display, transmitter, transceiver, ID register and antenna.

Principle of Transmitter (or Sensor) Transmitter consists of temperature & pressure sensor, MCU, RF transmitter and battery, They are integrated in one plastic housing. The sensor in transmitter detects changes of tire pressure and temperature, transforms the changes to electrical data through electrical components, then MCU transforms the electrical data and the ID code to digital signal, which the RF transmitter sent out. The transmitter could be triggered when it detects the pressure lower than settings.

Transceiver consists of MCU, RF receiver, RF transmitter and ID module, They are integrated in one plastic housing. The RF receiver receiving digital signal sent by transmitter and transfer it to MCU which will demodulate the signal, then the RF transmitter will send it out to display together with the ID number of trailer transmitters.


The receiver and display is integrated, the receiver receives signal from transmitter via antenna and demodulate it, then the display shows the data, the process is controlled by MCU. When the received pressure and temperature is lower or greater than the setting value, MCU will order the display to warn the driver by lighting or sound. Driver then could take positive actions.There are at least 6 sensors in the truck to transmit data, that is, the receiver will get data from multiple sources at the same time. Each sensor has a corresponding ID module in the MCU, so the receiver can get the right data of each corresponding tires.

System Characteristics


Tire Identification--ID Module Technology

Why do we need tire identification?

When tire pressure sensor was replaced or a spare tire is mounted, the new sensor will be in an “asleep” mode. To wake up sensor, it must be registered.

Each time a wheel sensor rotation occurs, the tire pressure sensors must be relearned. If a tire and wheel rotation is not followed by the relearned procedure, the system will not properly inform the driver with the correct location on the vehicle for a low or high pressure tire.


Valor TPMS ID Module Technology

Each transmitter has a corresponding ID module, they have same exclusive ID code, such as 01EB327F. The ID module is installed in the back of display or in the transceiver to register the ID code and identify the tire position.

---- Position of ID modules and transmitters

No transceiver for straight vehicles/buses/OTR vehicles


For trucks with trailers, install tractor ID modules in the display and trailer ID modules in the transceiver.


IdentificationThe ID code together with the tire pressure and temperature will be sent to display, which will match the transmitter with its corresponding ID module.

RotationThe ID module position resembles tire’s position as the pictures above, if you interchange wheel position, you should also interchange the position of ID module. For example, if you interchange wheel 1C and 4C, you should also interchange the position of ID module 1C and 4C.

Change TransmitterWhen you replace a sensor, first install the new sensor in the wheel, then plug the ID module came with the sensor in the corresponding position. For example, if you replace the sensor in wheel 2D, you should plug the new ID module in the position 2D.


The Merit of ID Module Technology

Recalibration or complicated setup is unnecessary when doing tire rotation or changing transmitter.


All tires transmitting data at the same time will interference each other. Our program can effectively reduce these data interference to about 3%.

High Anti-interference Ability


High-performance chip and high-frequency circuit ensure the high quality transmitting and receiving of signal even in high driving speed.

The transmitting and receiving of the signal are stable at highest speed of 250km/h.

High Reliability of Signal


High-quality cell and extremely optimized circuit design guarantees the battery life up to 5 years.

5 years

Low Energy Consumption

Operation


Setup the Baseline PressureIt’s necessary to set baseline pressure on the following conditions:① First use of product.② Replace transmitter and ID module.

Both tractor and trailer need to be set up

The baseline pressure has been set in the factory at 4Bar (58PSI) for all wheel positions. We recommend that you set the baseline pressure at the same pressure as standard cold inflation pressure recommended by tire manufacturer.


Setup the Baseline Pressure of Tractor

1. Inflate all tires’ pressure to the standard cold inflation pressure.

2. Press the SET KEY for five seconds, you will hear sound “beep”, all backlights are on, the screens show “000”, which means you succeed in deleting the old baseline pressure.

3. Go next step---setup the baseline pressure of trailer.
