ArvinMeritor and Pressure Systems International have updated their technical guide covering the Meritor Tire Inflation System (MTIS) by PSI to include information about ThermALERT. An advanced MTIS by PSI technology, ThermALERT detects increased wheel-end temperatures and helps alert drivers to stop for repairs before serious damage can occur. This early warning helps reduce the potential risk, cost, and downtime associated with wheel loss, wheel end failures, and trailer fires.
MTIS by PSI can be installed on any type of trailer. The optional ThermALERT is now available on new trailers assembled with Meritor-prepped TN, TQ, and P-spindle profile trailer axles.
