The sensor delivers an enhanced user experience while verifying
inflation pressure using Parker Meggitt’s breakthrough Wireless
Tire Pressure Sensor (WTPS), and a new tire pressure status feature
that is integrated into an app for smartphones and tablets.
The advanced long-range wireless sensing technology allows users
to stand in front of the aircraft, open the dedicated app on a
smartphone or tablet, and instantly read the tire pressure of each
wheel. The sensor provides an accurate tire pressure reading every
time, wherever and whenever needed, making the solution a great
addition for customers.
“We are extremely excited to gain our first certification of
iPRESS, and introduce this innovative product to the market, as it
is truly illustrative of an engineering breakthrough which leads to
a better tomorrow,” commented Paul Devaux, general manager of the
Motion Power & Sensing Division. “Working with aircraft
manufacturers, we’ve developed a wireless system specifically to
meet our customers’ needs, helping them to increase efficiency and
safety.”
iPRESS is an easy retrofit solution using a smartphone or
tablet, with no dedicated reader required. Installation,
maintenance, and smartphone/tablet configuration are also
simple.
The innovative long-range wireless technology also speeds up
aircraft tire pressure checks. Tire pressure monitoring is an
essential part of aircraft maintenance, helping to prevent failure
events caused by improper tire inflation. Using a wireless system
can help to extend tire life, reduce human error, lower maintenance
costs, and increase flight safety.
iPRESS is now available to be fitted on a range of aircrafts. To
