RTS TRUCK+BUS TPMS
The universal TPMS for heavy-duty trucks and buses
The universally programmable TRUCK+BUS TPMS from RTS consists of a 433 MHz TPMS sensor that is mounted directly on the OEM valve or secured in the rim well using a retaining strap. Using the RTS Tool TRUCK+BUS TPMS programming and diagnostic device, the sensor can be reprogrammed as often as needed—even while installed, thanks to its wireless functionality, which offers significant advantages, particularly in fleet management.
The RTS TRUCK+BUS TPMS is suitable for the following vehicle types:
- Trucks
- Tractor-trailers
- Semi-trailers / Trailers
- Trailers
- Buses (tour buses, city buses)
For smaller commercial vehicles (vans, box trucks), the RTSensor (for passenger cars) — which is also available — can be installed directly on the valve. Programming can also be performed using the RTS Tool TRUCK+BUS. This allows you to service your entire commercial vehicle fleet with just one TPMS programming and diagnostic tool.
The RTSensor TRUCK+BUS
Compared to a pre-programmed OE sensor, a universal TPMS sensor offers many advantages in the aftermarket when it comes to inventory management, seasonal tire changes, and several other factors. In the truck sector, two advantages stand out even more clearly thanks to the sensor’s flexible positioning within the rim well or directly on the OE valve, as well as its full programmability.
The truck TPMS programming device
The RTS Tool TRUCK+BUS offers a simple introduction to the digital collection and management of all data related to the complete wheel assembly of light and heavy-duty commercial vehicles. And, of course, the RTS Tool TRUCK+BUS is also an excellent TPMS programming and diagnostic tool. This provides a number of advantages for the truck sector.
Digital recording of complete wheel data
Keeping a complete record of complete wheels ensures the safety of your customers. At the same time, it protects you from errors. With the RTS Tool TRUCK+BUS, you can check and document the following values during incoming and outgoing inspections:
-
Tire, rim and vehicle data
-
Battery status and ID of the TPMS sensor
-
Tire pressure
-
Tire tread depth
(5 measuring points per tire) -
Possible damage to the complete wheel
(via integrated camera) -
Storage location, and much more.
You can then use the free TIM (Tire Information Management) software to process and archive the digitally captured data, or transfer it to your ERP system or fleet management system.*
* Integration is being continuously expanded.
European legislation on TPMS for commercial vehicles
Under EU Directive ECE 2144/2019 (ECE R 141), all newly homologated commercial vehicles in categories N1 to N3, O3 and O4 as well as M2 and M3 must be fitted with a tire pressure monitoring system from July 2022.
