Emporia, Kan.--Hopkins has announced the addition of the nVISION tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) to the line of driver awareness products. The new nVISION TPMS is the first such system made specifically for RVs and tow vehicles. With its unique four-memory position settings, made specifically for those who drive and/or tow multiple vehicle configurations, the nVISION TPMS allows users to monitor their exact tire set-up.
The system allows users to monitor the number and configuration of tires that correspond to the vehicle they are driving and/or towing. This eliminates the need to reprogram each time a different vehicle and/or towed vehicle is driven. Four different vehicle/towed vehicle/trailer combinations can be saved and recalled at the touch of a button.
The nVISION TPMS allows drivers to check their tire pressures right from the driver's seat. Installation is quick and easy. Sensors simply attach to the tire valve stems and continuously send tire pressure readings to the monitor located on the dash.
The two-level warning system alerts drivers with both visual and audible warnings when tires become low. Level 1--12.5 percent low--warns of poor fuel economy and increased tire wear. Level 2--25 percent low--warns of dangerous driving conditions. The base system includes one monitor with nonskid pad and four tire sensors. Additional sensors are sold in two-packs so that users can monitor all tires on driven and towed vehicles as well as spare tires.
The system will track up to 24 tires simultaneously. The nVISION TPMS monitor is portable, wireless and travels with drivers to whichever vehicle they are driving. nVISION TPMS works on all sizes of tires, up to 150 PSI. Small trailer tires, car tires, truck tires, and RV tires all use the same size sensor.
