Phillips Connect Technologies (PCT) has partnered with Pressure Systems International (P.S.I.) to provide telematics solutions for P.S.I.’s automatic tire inflation system and TireView products.
The combined solution offers a capability to remotely pre-check the lights and tires on a parked trailer or chassis. This avoids the potential for dry runs before a tractor arrives, saving fuel and driver hours, according to the companies.
“The ability to proactively pre-check the status of a transportation asset remotely from any device connected to the internet is an absolute game-changer in terms of operational efficiency,” said Cliff Creech, business development manager intermodal for PCT.
Phillips Connect Technologies provides telematics solutions for trailers, chassis, and containers that add fully integrated cargo and health monitoring (lights, brakes, and tires) to real-time GPS tracking. These telematics solutions give fleet managers the information they need to turn their assets faster and maximize driver productivity.
Pressure Systems International, earlier this year, also announced the addition of TireView tire pressure and temperature monitoring for all vehicles, including trucks and tractors.
