Celerity DRS are the exclusive European distributors of the Pressure Systems International (P.S.I.) Tyre Inflation System, the leading system with over 2 million systems in use worldwide, and are experts when it comes to Automatic Tyre Inflation Systems.

Having worked closely with Europe’s leading axle manufacturers, the Automatic Tyre Inflation System has been refined and perfected for the European trailer market, with partnerships now in place with all of the major manufacturers who provide their own brands of the system. Examples include the SAF Tyre Pilot, BPW Air Save, Schmitz Cargobull Reifenfuelsystem, JOST’s Reifenfuelsystem, SAE-SMB Tire Inflation and Assali Stefen, with more to come in the near future. The full list of Celerity DRS partners can be found on their website here.

The R141 legislation is now in full effect, mandating that all trailers across Europe are equipped with a system that monitors and maintains optimal tyre pressure. The R141 legislation aims to deliver the following advantages;

Enhanced Safety: Proper tyre pressure reduces the risk of blowouts and improves vehicle handling. The system alerts drivers to any deviations, allowing for timely interventions.
Improved Fuel Efficiency: Under-inflated tyres increase rolling resistance, leading to higher fuel consumption. Maintaining optimal tyre pressure can result in significant fuel savings.
Reduced Tyre Wear: Correct tyre pressure ensures even tyre wear, extending the lifespan of tyres and reducing replacement costs.
Environmental Benefits: Efficient fuel consumption and longer tyre life contribute to lower carbon emissions and reduced environmental waste.

In partnership with US market leaders, Pressure Systems International, Celerity DRS offers to the market both advanced (TPRS) and standard (TPMS) solutions and are the only European provider homologated with all major axle manufacturers.

Standard (TPMS): Every trailer must have a functioning TPMS to monitor tyre pressure in real-time.

Advanced (TPRS or CTIS): Fleets can enhance their compliance and operational efficiency by integrating TPRS and CTIS. These systems automatically refill tyres and maintain them at the optimal pressure.

The TireView system (TPMS) is a simple design and consists only of an ECU, sensors and, if necessary, a repeater. The ECU is powered by the EBS and allows to monitor up to 38 sensors. Alongside pressure, the sensors are also reading the temperature.

All this information is sent to the dashboard of the truck via CANbus or can be integrated into a telematic system, such as their own ‘TireView live’ system.

Both solutions, TPRS or TPMS, allow companies to fulfil their R141 obligations and improve the efficiency and safety of their fleet.

Not just tyre inflation systems

Alongside the PSI Tyre Inflation System, Celerity DRS also offer a range of products which aim to improve the fuel consumption and reduce CO2 emissions for commercial vehicles. The latest addition to the CDRS product line up is the Airtab® Fuel Saver -a drag reduction system which is readily available to all commercial fleets across Europe.

Airtabs® are uniquely shaped plastic moulds which create two tight swirls of air that combine to reduce the suction and drag at two key points on the vehicle: the tractor-trailer gap and the base area of any square-backed commercial vehicle.

Each Airtab® creates a series of vortices that combine to reduce the drag at the rear of vehicles traveling at speeds above approximately 35 mph or 55kmh. Not only does this reduce fuel consumption (on average between 3% and 5% as tested by Millbrook Proving Grounds and MIRA in the UK), but it also provides several safety benefits as well, including increased vehicle stability in high winds.
