2. Tire-pressure monitoring system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/.../Tire-pressure_monitoring_system

   A tire-pressure monitoring system (TPMS) monitors the air pressure inside the pneumatic tires on vehicles. [1] A TPMS reports real-time tire-pressure information to the driver, using either a gauge, a pictogram display, or a simple low-pressure warning light. TPMS can be divided into two different types – direct (dTPMS) and indirect (iTPMS).

3. Direct TPMS - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct_TPMS

   direct TPM sensor fitted in valve system, manufacturer VDO. In most current designs of direct TPMS, a small electronic assembly which is rugged enough to be mounted inside a tire, measures the pressure using a microelectromechanical system (MEMS) [1] pressure sensor and then transmits this and other information to one or more vehicle receivers. [1]

4. Tire-pressure gauge - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tire-pressure_gauge

   Many modern cars now come with built-in tire pressure sensors that allow all four tire pressures to be read simultaneously from inside the car. Before 2005, most on-board tire-pressure monitoring systems (TPMS) used indirect pressure monitoring. The anti-lock brake sensors detect one tire rotating faster than the rest and indicate a low tire ...

5. Central tire inflation system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_Tire_Inflation_System

   Reducing tire pressure also reduces the extent to which the tires grind against loose surfaces, significantly reducing dust and silt. Another function of CTIS is to maintain tire pressure if there is a slow leak or puncture. In this case, the system controls inflation automatically based on the selected pressure the driver has set. [1]

6. Tire - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tire

   Most modern passenger vehicles are now required to have a tire pressure monitoring system which usually consists of a valve stem attached to an electronic module. [ 34 ] Inner tube : Most bicycle tires , many motorcycle tires , and many tires for large vehicles such as buses, heavy trucks, and tractors are designed for use with inner tubes .

7. Schrader valve - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schrader_valve

   The Schrader valve is used on virtually all automobile tires and motorcycle tires and most wider-rimmed bicycle tires.In addition to tube and tubeless tires, Schrader valves of varying diameters are used on many refrigeration and air conditioning systems to allow servicing, including recharging with refrigerant; by plumbers conducting leak-down pressure tests on pipe installations; as a ...
