Wheely Safe (Sensors)

An external TPMS sensor replaces the valve cap on each tyre. For inner wheels, we can supply valve extensions. Internal TPMS sensors can also be specified upon request, for fitment onto the wheel rim by a qualified tyre technician.

Each outer facing wheel is fitted with a wheel loss sensor, placed inside a bracket that straddles two wheel nuts. Two sensors and two brackets are required per wheel, mounted opposite each other. The wheel loss sensor double up to also monitor temperatures around the brake and hub.

Description

TPMS External Sensor – Light (TEL) and Heavy (TEH)

  • External sensors powered by internal battery, designed battery life of 3 – 5 years
  • Light sensor fitted to any vehicle with tyre pressure 0 – 87psi
  • Heavy sensor fitted to any vehicle with tyre pressure 0 – 188psi
  • Calibrates to the set tyre pressure when attached to the tyre valve stem, flashes 3 times for 2 seconds to confirm
  • Auto-pairs with in-cab Receiver during journeys and remains on memory until not seen for three journeys
  • Communicates with the in-cab Receiver after pairing
  • Tyre pressure and temperature monitored continuously
  • Frequency of data transmission managed by pressure drop/temperature rise
  • Battery level of the sensor is displayed on PC when held against the sensor
  • After vehicle is stationary for 15 mins sensors enters 72-hour mode and reduces data transmission frequency

TPMS Internal Sensor – Light (TIL) and Heavy (TIH)

  • Internal sensor powered by internal battery, designed battery life of 5 -10 years
  • Light sensor fitted to all vehicle <100 psi
  • Heavy sensor fitted to all vehicle >100 psi
  • Attached to the centre line of the internal flat face of the wheel rim, in line with the tyre valve
  • Calibrates to the set tyre pressure when tyre replaced and inflated
  • Auto-pairs with in-cab Receiver during journeys and remains on memory until not seen for three journeys
  • Communicates with the in-cab Receiver after pairing
  • Tyre pressure and temperature monitored continuously
  • Frequency of data transmission managed by pressure drop/temperature rise
  • Battery level of the sensor is displayed on PC when held against the sensor
  • After vehicle is stationary for 15 mins sensors enters 72-hour mode and reduces data transmission frequency

Wheel Loss and Wheel Temperature Sensor (WL/WLM)

  • Mini Sensor for car/van and Heavy Sensor for LCV/HGV powered by internal battery, designed battery life of 3-5 years
  • Housed in a Zinc coated steel bracket and mounted across two-wheel studs on the outer wheel
  • Activated when wheel nuts tightened onto bracket, flashes 3 times
  • Auto-pairs with in-cab Receiver during journeys and remains on memory until not seen for three journeys
  • Communicates with the in-cab Receiver after pairing
  • Detects sensor to wheel rim gap of approximately 1mm (early wheel loss onset) and transmits an alert to the in-cab Receiver enabling driver to take immediate action
  • Sensors flashes to indicate which wheel is loose (Alert state)
  • Monitors wheel rim temperature and transmits an alert to the in-cab Receiver when temperature > 100°C
  • Records wheel temperature throughout the journey and stores the highest recorded temperature reached over the last 24 hours
  • Indicates early maintenance issues e.g., brakes binding/not working, hub failure
  • Temperatures displayed when PC is held against the sensor
