Retrofit TPMS sensors from JohnDow

JohnDow Industries (JDI) has added TPMS (Tire Pressure Monitoring System)

JohnDow Industries (JDI) has added TPMS (Tire Pressure Monitoring System) Retro Kit Sensors to its Dynamic division's line of products. These sensors, designed for vehicles without manufacturer- installed TPMS, provides increased passenger safety and alleviates hazardous tire-related incidents. These sensors work with virtually any air-filled tire, the company says.

Dynamic's new Retro Kit Sensors are available in External (DY-BLE-E) and Internal (DY-BLE-I) sensor options. Also available is the TPMS Repeater (DY-BLE-R) to extend the overall signal distance up to 30 feet. Both sensor options work with the easy-to-use Dynamic BLE phone app to program and assign up to 36 sensors.

JohnDow says these sensors are ideal for:

JohnDow says the External Retro Kit Sensors replace a tire's valve cap to measure tire pressure and temperature. Designed to swap out to other vehicles, these sensors are as easy to install as screwing on a valve cap. The Internal Retro Kit Sensors act as a traditional TPMS Sensor, installed inside of the tire. These TPMS sensors come with four valve color options and are ideal for boat trailers or a long-term TPMS solution, the company adds.

The Dynamic BLE TPMS app also provides options to set up multiple vehicle profiles with real-time data and alerts including fast leak, high/low-pressure, high temperature, and sensor low battery – all from a phone or tablet.

"We hear all the time about boat trailer tires or heavy-duty tires blowing out on the highway, causing – at a minimum – very hazardous conditions," says Greg Iorfida, national sales manager of the JDI Dynamic Division. "These new TPMS Retro Kit sensors provide critical pressure and temperature information that could prevent a lot of these incidents."
