STEMCO, a technology leader in heavy-duty truck and trailer wheel end products, has introduced an innovative new product line developed to provide solutions that reduce the cost of vehicle ownership, improve safety and increase value for fleets and vehicle operators. STEMCO’s BAT RF products use advanced sensor technologies and radio frequency identification (RFID) to collect and communicate critical data on vehicle condition and maintenance, saving fleet operators time and money. The modular based product suite addresses fleet challenges such as knowing how many miles a vehicle has traveled, which equipment needs attention for preventative maintenance, and the condition of various vehicle components.
The STEMCO BAT RF system includes any of the components listed below:
- AirBAT RF™ – Tire pressure monitor providing instant visual reading of tire air pressure condition along with the ability to transfer the data by radio frequency. AirBAT RF is quickly and easily installed in under 10 minutes on any dual tire wheel end.
- TracBAT RF™ – Electronic mileage counter capable of communicating vehicle mileage data wirelessly via RF channels.
- HandBAT RF™ – Handheld RF reader that collects and displays wireless data from AirBAT, TracBAT, and other sensor collection devices to be developed in the future.
- DataBAT RF™ – Personal computer software that accepts downloaded data from the HandBAT for tracking and reporting. This allows data export to a fleet’s maintenance or business software as desired.
- Download Pod – Peripheral device for data transfer to and from HandBAT and DataBAT.
These system components function together or independently to provide accurate and timely data to the fleet.
