Doran Manufacturing’s 360HD tire monitoring system can improve fuel efficiency by alerting drivers and maintenance personnel of low tire pressures before heading out for the day.
According to industry studies, properly inflated tires can improve fuel efficiency up to 3%, translating to substantial fuel savings across the fleet. External, valve stem-mounted sensors transmit tire pressure and temperature data to the in-cab monitor/display, providing drivers with real-time information and alerts. With the patented Green Means Good at-a-glance indicator, drivers can identify if there’s an issue with one of their tires.
The Doran 360HD tire monitoring systems include visual and audible alerts for rapid deflation events and high tire temperatures. There are multiple options for fleet managers and equipment maintenance teams to receive real-time tire alerts as well, including systems that automatically check tire pressure while technicians are performing vehicle inspections. In addition to enhancing fuel efficiency, monitoring and continually reporting tire pressures and temperatures allows fleets to schedule repairs and corrections to enhance safety, reduce tire-related maintenance costs, extend tread life, and minimize tire failures.

Maintaining proper tire inflation pressure maximizes the performance of the tire, leading to reduced downtime while improving safety and efficiency. Designed to handle the environmental conditions found on roadways across the nation, Doran tire monitoring systems take into account heat, vibration, and the longevity needed for performance in all types of off-road environments. Optional accessories geared toward off-road applications include a remote antenna kit, exterior signal booster, flow-through adapters, and flow-through valve stem extensions.
Furthermore, Doran tire monitoring systems are suitable for off-road equipment, including articulated haul trucks, loaders, fuel trailers, ready-mix/concrete, dump trucks, construction supplies deliveries, waste and recycling.
