Speed of installation of the TPMS Sensor is a priority to most customers. External Sensors always offer the advantage of a short and simple installation process. Accordingly quicker internal sensor Installation provides all the advantages of the internal sensor, and is now faster to install.
However, for a number of reasons, internal sensors are often the preferred solution, particularly for OTR vehicles. Evidently vehicles working in remote locations and harsh environments demand an internal sensor. Because internal sensors can give more accurate tire temperature readings. Given the siting of the internal sensors on the inside of the tires, the speed of installation of the sensor has always been a trade-off against security and accuracy of the readings.
To address this issue and provide a quicker internal sensor installation process, TMS® have been working on improvements to simplify the internal sensor placement. We are pleased to announce that our new Magnetic Mount is now available.
This mount uses extremely powerful neodymium magnets combined with rubber toggles to simply attach to the rim. The integral rubber toggles handle any vehicle vibration. OTR vehicles have used these toggles successfully for decades.
The new Magnetic Mounts can reduce installation time dramatically, which can result in a welcome improvement on efficiency and productivity for our customers. What?s more, the sensor stays with the rim when tire replacement occurs. This saves time and money because you do not need to make any adjustments.
