multiTPMS System

An Investment in the oversized transport

The system allows for unlimited combinations of tractors and semi-trailers. In one road train it is possible to monitor up to 200 wheels in a standard version and even up to 480 wheels upon request. A full set of information collected by the TPMS sensors and sent by created for this purpose platforms, is visualized on the multifunction color display, MVF Continental.

Multitasking of MVF is also manifested by overview of information coming from alcohol interlocks (alkolock), digital tachygraph and camera systems. Moreover, while using gyro it is possible to display composition of the load, thus we know if the critical tilt value is exceeded.
