Differences between passenger vehicle & commercial vehicle TPMS Sensors
At first glance, tire pressure sensors (TPMS) for passenger cars and trucks appear almost identical. However, this impression is misleading: the technology cannot simply be interchanged. The differences lie in the details – and those details are critical for both safety and service life. In this article, we take a closer look at the technology […]
Quality Requirements for EBS Cables: IP69K, ADR & Protection Against Abrasion
In modern commercial vehicle electronics, EBS systems (Electronic Braking Systems) are at the core of safety. The connection between EBS units (e.g. from Wabco, Knorr-Bremse, or Haldex) and peripheral devices such as a CAN-Bridge for tire pressure sensors (TPMS) places the highest demands on wiring. Why a “standard cable” can not be used here — […]
TPMS Legal Requirements for commercial vehicles
From July 2024, all newly registered trucks, transports, buses, and trailers must be equipped with a Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS).
How to install external tire pressure sensors: Instructions for trucks and commercial vehicles
External tire pressure sensors are an efficient and cost-effective solution to increase safety, tire service life, and operational reliability for trucks, trailers, buses, and other commercial vehicles. Especially with large wheels, such as 22.5-inch rims, correct installation plays a crucial role. Because even a small mistake can have serious consequences: an incorrectly mounted sensor can […]
