Improve Your Bottom Line
®
with TIREMAAX PRO
There are more options for trailer
tire pressure management than
ever before. When selecting a
tire pressure system, owneroperators and fleet managers
must determine which technology best meets their operational
requirements and provides the
best return on investment.
Hendrickson delivers a complete
solution with TIREMAAX® PRO.
It is an advanced automatic tire
pressure control system for the
trailer industry capable of active
inflation, relieving and equalizing, resulting in reduced tire
wear, improved productivity and
increased fuel mileage.
TIREMAAX PRO features a
mechanical design that constantly monitors tire pressure to
respond to under-inflated tires
and changes in outside temperature that can cause over-inflated
tires. The patented system draws
from the trailer air supply to help
keep all the trailer tires properly
inflated and rolling smoothly.
PRO detects pressure dips below
a preset level in one or more tires
and directs air to the affected
tire(s). The system responds to
changes in outside temperature and prevents over-inflation
by relieving air from the tires.
This excess pressure flows back
through the supply lines and
exhausts at the controller. Finally,
TIREMAAX PRO equalizes the
pressure at all wheel positions
by using special valves in the

hubcaps that allow air to flow
both to and from the tires. This
ability to equalize pressures
reduces scrubbing between
duals and improves tire life.
According to industry sources, proper tire inflation can
yield savings in the three greatest expense areas for fleets
and owner-operators - labor,
fuel and tires. TIREMAAX PRO can
pay for itself in a year or less with
the savings incurred from labor
savings associated with frequent
tire pressure checks, increased
fuel mileage, and reduced tire
maintenance and replacement
costs. Can you afford not to spec
TIREMAAX PRO?
