*Operating radius may be affected by various factors including obstructions.
The tire sensor is mounted onto the inner liner of the tire in order to collect data. Unlike wheel- or valve-mounted sensors, this placement ensures accuracy of the temperature and pressure data without influence from external factors. It also protects the sensor from theft and damage, especially in the case of curbing or sidewall abrasions, which can dislodge or damage a valve-mounted sensor.
The battery-powered sensor lasts approximately six years or 400,000 miles, minimizing disruptions to your tire program. It can also be reused after retreading the casing.
The same TPMS sensors form the backbone of all Continental’s Digital Tire Monitoring solutions, including our ContiPressureCheck TPMS for drivers, ContiPressureCheck Integrated with telematics, and ContiPressureCheck Solo Trailer TPMS. This allows systems to be used interchangeably to meet the needs of your fleet.
Sensors can be installed in your existing Continental tires by a certified dealer, or you can order intelligent tires, which arrive pre-equipped with sensors from the factory.
The ContiConnect® Yard Reader is mounted in the fleet yard, at a frequent touchpoint such as a guard shack or fuel island. It reads all the tire sensors in an approximately 65-foot radius. The radius may increase or decrease due to environmental factors such as obstructions. The Yard Reader delivers the tire temperature and pressure data to a mobile-friendly web portal.
Using the Yard Reader eliminates the need to attach any electronics to your trucks or trailers. Simply install Continental tire sensors in each tire and as soon as vehicles are within range, the Yard Reader will display their data in the web portal.
The ContiConnect™ web portal displays all your tire data. The browser-based application is mobile-friendly and can be accessed via a computer, tablet, or mobile phone. View reports, check analytics, and track your tire performance over time, conveniently housed in a single portal.
Set up customizable notifications so anyone in your fleet can receive a text message or e-mail when any tire deviates from desired parameters.
See immediately which tire position on which truck needs attention.
Continental’s Hand Held Tool is used to wirelessly program each tire sensor. It is used during the initial setup of ContiConnect to assign each tire sensor to the respective wheel position of the vehicle. It is also used when tires are rotated, for example, to reassign the sensor to the new wheel position.

"ContiConnect is probably one of the most important tools in the past four or five years," says Kenny Youngman, who participated in a trial of the platform. "We've gotten to the point where we're no longer looking at trailers, not knowing which trailer has a tire that needs some repairs, but we go right to the one that needs help."
