Focus on efficiency and safety with the tyre pressure monitoring system

"We have been equipping our trailers with the TrailerConnect® telematics system as standard ex works since 2018. The system can also be easily retrofitted to vehicles from other manufacturers. All Schmitz Cargobull trailers are now equipped with a TPMS to record tyre pressure and temperature. This means the obligation from July 2024 for newly registered trailers to have this system can already be fulfilled.," says Boris Billich, Chief Sales Officer at Schmitz Cargobull.
Start of standard equipment at the beginning of 2024
The TPMS monitors the tyre pressure in real time and warns of sudden or gradual loss of pressure or over-inflation. An early warning via the TrailerConnect® portal, by email and text message, as well as the beSmart app for drivers or the beUpToDate app for dispatchers, increases safety for road users and freight. You can keep an eye on tyre pressure at all times and maintain control over your entire fleet.
Schmitz Cargobull's Full Service contract also includes the replacement of the TPMS system in addition to the already known benefits, such as the assumption of costs for the replacement of worn tyres, regular fleet checks and our Europe-wide breakdown service.
beSmart app: status recognition for the driver
With the beSmart app, the driver can read out and monitor the status of the tyre pressures on his trailer at any time. In-app alarm messages in the event of deviations allow them to react at an early stage and thus minimise downtimes. The tyre pressure information is also transmitted to the tractor unit via a CanBus interface. Depending on the vehicle type, the corresponding information is also shown on the tractor unit's display. This enables permanent monitoring and rapid intervention by the driver.
beUpToDate app: Transparent data overview for the dispatcher
The Trailer Connect® beUpToDate app gives fleet managers and dispatchers a real-time overview of their fleet's most important data and can display the positions of their trailers via Google Maps. In addition to temperature and cooling unit data or axle unit loads, the status of the tyre pressures is of course also transmitted. This means that the dispatcher always has a complete and transparent overview of all trailer data.
