Key Features of the Commercial Truck TPMS

RS232 & RS485 Output

Transmit tire pressure, temperature, sensor ID and alarm data to compatible GPS trackers, 4G gateways or fleet telematics devices. Arvov supplies the communication protocol for integration.

18-Wheel CAN / 46-Wheel RS232 Options

Choose the correct configuration: CAN Bus and TDS200 systems support up to 18 wheels; the RS232 TDS300 display supports up to 46 wheels.

Bluetooth App Pairing

Use a smartphone App to scan sensor IDs and pair sensors with the TPMS display. Manual ID entry and activation-tool pairing are also supported.

Long-Range RF Performance

433.92 MHz wireless sensors and an optional repeater maintain stable signal transmission on long vehicles and demanding fleet applications.

Smart Trailer Exchange

Add a smart repeater to support trailer swap operations. The system can identify and reconnect trailer tire sensors after a trailer is exchanged.

Automotive-Grade Components

Vehicle-grade TPMS chipsets and batteries support stable performance across a wide operating temperature range and long service life.

Commercial Vehicle Applications

Choose a commercial truck TPMS configuration according to vehicle length, wheel count, trailer operation and the required display or telematics output.

Semi Trucks

Monitor tractor and semi-trailer tires with repeater support for long vehicle combinations.

Commercial Trucks

Provide the driver with pressure, temperature and alarm information for multi-axle trucks.

Buses and Coaches

Monitor multiple wheel positions across city buses, school buses and intercity coaches.

Tractors and Trailers

Use a smart repeater where trailer swap and trailer sensor reconnection are required.

Fleet Vehicles

Forward TPMS data to compatible GPS, 4G gateway or fleet-management hardware.

Heavy-Duty Vehicles

Configure internal or external sensors for mining, construction and special-purpose vehicles.

How the Truck TPMS Works

Each wireless sensor measures tire pressure and temperature. Data is transmitted to the display for the driver and can be forwarded to a fleet platform for centralized monitoring.

Install Sensors

Fit internal banded, internal valve or external sensors according to the wheel and tire configuration.

Pair Sensor IDs

Scan IDs with the App, enter them manually or use the TPMS activation tool to wake and pair sensors.

Monitor the Vehicle

The display shows wheel position, pressure, temperature and alarm status. CAN Bus and TDS200 configurations support up to 18 wheels; the RS232 TDS300 display supports up to 46 wheels.

Connect the Fleet Platform

Use RS232 or RS485 to pass TPMS data to compatible GPS, 4G or telematics hardware.

Truck TPMS FAQ

How many wheels can the Truck TPMS monitor?

CAN Bus and TDS200 configurations support up to 18 wheels. The RS232 TDS300 display supports up to 46 wheels for multi-axle commercial vehicles.

Can Truck TPMS data be uploaded to our fleet platform?

Yes. Tire pressure, temperature, sensor ID and alarm data can be transmitted to a compatible GPS tracker, 4G gateway or telematics device through RS232 or RS485.

Which sensor should I use for truck tires?

Internal banded and internal valve sensors are suitable for many tubeless commercial tires. External sensors offer quick installation and can be useful for tube tires or retrofit projects. The best option depends on the rim, valve and service environment.

Does the system support trailer exchange?

Yes. An optional smart repeater supports trailer swap and trailer exchange applications by helping the tractor-side system reconnect with the trailer sensor group.

How are sensors paired with the display?

Sensor IDs can be scanned through the smartphone App, entered manually or paired using the TPMS activation tool.

Can ARVOV customize the truck TPMS?

Yes. OEM and ODM options may include communication protocols, hardware combinations, firmware, branding and packaging, subject to technical review.

Does the system support CAN J1939?

Yes. The TDS200 CAN J1939 solution supports up to 18 wheels. CAN data definition and project requirements should be confirmed before integration.

How many repeaters are required?

Vehicles with 6–14 wheels normally use one repeater, while vehicles with more than 14 wheels normally use two. The final quantity depends on vehicle length and installation conditions.

What is the truck sensor pressure range?

The approved truck sensor pressure range is 0–18 Bar, equivalent to 0–261 PSI.

How long does the sensor battery last?

Internal truck sensors are designed for approximately 8–10 years, while external sensors typically last 1–2 years. Actual life varies with transmission frequency, alarm activity and operating environment.

Can the truck TPMS work without a display?

Yes. A display-optional CAN J1939, RS232 or RS485 receiver configuration can send data to compatible vehicle electronics or telematics hardware.

Do you provide the communication protocol?

Yes. ARVOV can provide the applicable CAN J1939, RS232 or RS485 communication protocol for qualified integration projects.
