The P-eye is a patented new device which makes it easier for commercial vehicle operators to efficiently check the tyre pressures of their fleet. The P-eye monitoring device replaces the tyre valve cap and monitors the preset minimum tyre pressure. If the tyre pressure drops more than 5 per cent below the ideal pressure the LED lamp starts blinking and the trucker can top up the pressure when he stops next. A quick visual check of any vehicle fitted with the P-eye enables an operator to check their tyres are all correctly inflated, so the system is safer than manual checks, and more cost-efficient in every way – Firstly, it is not necessary to check every single tyre, as action is only necessary on tyres where the LEDs are blinking. The P-eye is a new product from T-Comm Tracking & Tracing of The Netherlands which sells comprehensive vehicle tracking and tracing system, aimed at semi-trailers. [T-Comm]
