Tire Sentry Features
The new generation of Tire Sentry products has many new features resulting in benefits not available in any other TPMS or tire monitoring products. After several years on the market, Tire Sentry has responded to customer request and suggestions relating to the installation and use of their systems of which many are reflected in the following features and improvements:
1. Longer Sensor Battery Life... Sensor power requirements have been reduced and transmission duty cycles modified, resulting in increased battery life of that of older sensors. The new Tire Sentry systems use only two batteries. The new battery is a type 357P high-capacity silver oxide battery and is available from most any drug or discount store, or directly from the factory at a reduced price..
2. Low Battery Warning... New Tire sentry Wheel Sensors monitor battery power and advise you when batteries need replacement.
3. Made in the USA...The Tire Sentry was designed and is manufactured in the U.S.A. to withstand rigorous trucking industry applications.
4. Advanced Aerospace Materials and Quality Standards... are employed in every Tire Sentry system. Materials approved or recognized by the Dept. Of Transportation (D.O.T.); NTSA; and ASTM are used in all new generation Tire Sentry systems. Component parts are made to ISO 9000 quality standards where available.
5. Microchip Technology... means latest state-of-the-art Superhetrodyne, and Surface Acoustic Wave RF components are used to block out disruptive signals and "cross-talk" from other vehicles, and improves signal strength to the receiver.
6. Unique Vehicle Codes... All sensors are coded specifically for your vehicle or trailer so your Wheel Sensors are recognized by only your Receiver Instrument. This enables wheel sensors to be vehicle specific or fleet specific* as necessary for individual operation, or fleet operation.
7. New Sensor Design...Are known to be the most compact and easiest to install tire pressure sensors in the industry.
8. Easier Installation...Tire Sentry installation does not require any special tools or technical knowledge, and no complex programing procedures are necessary since the tire sensors come pre-programmed. for your specific vehicle and pressure requirements.
10. Tire Pressure Sensors.may be re-set by the operator for new tire pressures as may be necessary. Tire Sentry sensors use only 2 standard watch batteries that can last up to 3 years, and are easily replaced.
11. Unique Patented Design reduces tire sensor size by as much as 35% of those of competitive pressure sensors.
12. Real-Time Pressure Monitoring provides continuous sensor operation rather than just "sampling" tire pressures every few minutes when the tires are rotating. The Tire Sentry's Pressure Sensors continuously monitor tire pressure and will only activate the transmitter when a loss of tire pressure (or under-inflated tire), is detected. Other systems require continuous battery power just to measure tire pressure, and must use large non-replaceable batteries to deal with their inherent parasitic power drain.
13. Commercial Trailer Tire Sensor Kits are available for commercial Fleet Operators may be coded for total compatibility with any Truck in the fleet.
