The tyre of a car or any other vehicle is one of the most important parts of the whole machine. The pressure of tyres plays an important role. Consumption of fuel depends on the air pressure in the tyre. If the air pressure is too high, then the grip of the tyre on the road becomes less, and the car vibrates more leading to more fuel consumption. If the pressure is too low, then the amount of friction between the tyre and the road increases with more consumption of fuel.
Operational features of sensors
To sense the air pressure of the tyre, the sensors are installed inside the tie on the valves used to pump in the air. The sensors alert the driver of the car with the help of
tyre pressure sensors on the instrument panel cluster about any change in air pressure. When it senses something amiss, the sensor sends a signal to a wireless receiver that transmits the signal to the driver via the controller. The sensors work on an internal battery that lasts up to 7 years depending on the distance for which the car has been driven. The sensors do not work when the tyres are not moving and send no alerts for the spare tyre. It also sends a signal on the status of the internal battery.
Failure of sensors
The Tyre Pressure Monitor can fail if the tyre hits something with a heavy impact. They can fail due to a lot of other reasons like failure in the electronic system, a discharged battery, using incorrect core for the valve or by tightening the valve too much. If the sensor fails to send that alert then a warning light comes on that it has failed or when the air pressure in the tyre has gone below the seventy-five percent of the required level.
In order to avoid risk of accident, i think its too good to track the tire pressure by Using tire pressure sensors. Thanks for sharing the information regarding tire pressure monitor system.
