TrailerMaster TPMS can save you thousands of pounds in fuel and breakdown costs
As an investment in your trailer fleet, effective tyre pressure monitoring delivers year on year savings, as well as improved efficiency and safety.
When it comes to safety, correctly inflated tyres are essential. It also makes them more economical when in use and is better for the environment.
Under inflated tyres are prone to overheating, use more fuel and wear out more quickly. So by keeping your tyres at their correct pressure you will improve safety and reduce your running costs.
TPMS reduces breakdowns
Roadside tyre failure is the biggest preventable cause of breakdown in commercial vehicle fleets. Punctures frequently go unnoticed until a breakdown occurs. Early warning from the Trailermaster system means preventative tyre maintenance action can be taken before any permanent damage caused to the tyre. Any wasteful down time is greatly reduced.
TPMS prevents blowouts
Blowouts are invariably caused by a tyre being over-stressed. Heat builds up, the side-wall begins to de-laminate and eventually, the tyre fails. TrailerMaster TPMS even gives a warning before a blowout or tyre fire. Whether caused by soft tyres, binding brakes or bearing problems, Trailermaster can give an alert long before overheating becomes critical. Trailermaster TPMS virtually eliminates the danger of a blowout or tyre fire.
TPMS reduces fuel usage
Fuel use increases dramatically if tyres are under-inflated, so maintaining correct pressures is really important. Trailermaster TPMS sensors check pressure and temperature every few seconds while the trailer is in use, and adjustable alert levels mean that a clear warning is given for any divergence from the optimum pressures. Using Trailermaster TPMS dramatically reduces the amount of fuel used. Not only does this save you a fortune in fuel costs, it also reduces your CO2 emissions, which for anyone in transportation is great.
TPMS reduces downtime
Unlike other systems, Trailermaster TPMS offers continuous monitoring, even while the trailer is uncoupled, so tyre status is known even before the trailer is loaded. This allows to you to get ahead of any tyre issues which could cause a delay to the trailer leaving on time. Plus the hours of time spent at DVSA/Police roadside checks, repairs and breakdowns is reduced greatly
