Tyre Pressure Monitoring System
Modern Tyre Pressure Monitoring System for commercial needs
TPMS - Tyre Pressure Monitoring System for Commercial Vehicles
Tyre Pressure Monitoring System – TPMS
Under inflated tyres increase the vehicle drag, and can decrease fuel efficiency by as much as 8%. Temperature variations can upto variation in tyre pressure. A 5C drop in temperature can cause tyre pressure to reduce by 2%
Monitoring tyre pressure can increase fuel efficiency, decrease consumption, reduce maintenance issues and increase tyre lifetime. It can also detect punctures and tyre damage reducing the probability of accidents and severe damage.
Reduce fuel consumption
Controlling tyre pressure reduces fuel consumption and increase efficiency
Reduce accidents
Punctures on large vehicle tyres, can cause accidents. Prevent accidents protecting the driver, vehicle and consignment
Save Money
Save money by reducing fuel consumption, less maintenance and increase tyre lifetimes

This enables you to get all the cutting edge location based service from Yatis and a TPMS.Avoid accidents, reduce fuel cost, increase tyre lifetime while monitoring the vehicle and driver
Why tyre pressure is important!
The air pressure in your tyres supports the entire weight of your vehicle. Maintaining the correct tyre pressure is essential for keeping your vehicle, the driver, the consignment it is carrying and other road users safe. It goes a long way in improving vehicle performance, decreasing fuel costs and ensuring you get the most life out of your tyres. Unfortunately it’s one of the most common aspects of a car that driver neglect.
Under inflated tyres i.e. tyres with low pressure is a major cause of tyre failure. Under inflated tyres cause too much of the tyre to touch the road, increasing friction and wear. Visually you cannot identify that a tyre is under inflated. A tyre doesn’t need to look a little flat to be under inflated, it is best to have a TPMS monitoring them. A tyre with 25 per cent of the air let out of it looks like a fully inflated tyre.
- Increased rolling resistance which makes the engine work harder
- Uneven tread wear, with the edges of the tyre wearing out faster
- Poor braking performance
- Increased fuel consumption due to the rolling resistance
Over inflated tyres on the other hand give you a bumpier ride, compromises handling and creates uneven tread wear. There is a myth that the more your tyre is inflated, the better fuel economy is. This isn’t true. It is best to keep the tyre inflated to its correct level.
Frequently Asked Questions
TPMS Basics
A Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) is an electronic safety system that continuously monitors tyre air pressure and temperature, alerting drivers in real time when values fall outside safe limits.
TPMS is critical for vehicle safety, fuel efficiency, tyre life, and accident prevention. Low tyre pressure can lead to blowouts, reduced braking efficiency, and increased fuel consumption—especially in commercial and fleet vehicles.
There are two types: Direct TPMS – Uses sensors installed inside each tyre to measure real-time pressure and temperature (used in Yatis TPMS). Indirect TPMS – Uses ABS data to estimate pressure (less accurate, not suitable for fleets).
Once installed, TPMS works automatically. Pressure and temperature data are displayed on a dashboard screen or mobile/web platform, and alerts are triggered when thresholds are crossed.
You may drive short distances cautiously, but the vehicle should be inspected immediately. Driving with low tyre pressure increases accident risk and tyre damage, especially for heavy or commercial vehicles.
Vehicle Compatibility & Installation
Check your vehicle dashboard for a TPMS warning icon, review the owner's manual, or inspect the tyres for installed sensors. Most commercial vehicles require aftermarket TPMS.
No. Many commercial vehicles, trucks, buses, and trailers do not come with factory-fitted TPMS and require an aftermarket system like Yatis TPMS.
Most factory-fitted systems in premium vehicles use direct TPMS. Yatis TPMS also uses direct sensor technology for high accuracy and real-time alerts.
Yes. Drivers and fleet managers can monitor tyre pressure and temperature through the display unit or software dashboard provided with the TPMS system.
Sensor Replacement & Maintenance
Sensor replacement should be done by trained technicians to avoid tyre damage and ensure correct sensor calibration, especially in commercial vehicles.
Replacement requires tyre removal and proper sealing. While technically straightforward, professional installation is recommended for accuracy and safety.
Yes. New sensors must be paired or programmed with the TPMS control unit to ensure correct data transmission and alert accuracy.
Costs vary by sensor type and vehicle. In India, TPMS sensor replacement typically ranges from ₹1,500 to ₹4,000 per sensor, depending on specifications.
Activation is done via the TPMS display unit or software pairing process during installation. Some systems auto-learn, while others require manual calibration.
No. Sensors can be replaced individually. However, in fleet vehicles, replacing sensors together may reduce maintenance downtime.
For vehicles where TPMS is mandated by safety or fleet policy, disabling it is not recommended and may violate safety regulations or insurance conditions.
Cost & Value
TPMS system costs depend on vehicle type, number of tyres, sensor quality, and software features. Commercial-grade TPMS systems generally range from ₹6,000 to ₹25,000+.
TPMS sensor prices in India typically range from ₹1,500 to ₹4,000 per tyre, depending on durability and technology.
Yes. Replacing a faulty sensor restores safety alerts, prevents tyre failure, and reduces long-term maintenance and fuel costs.
Yes. Ignoring TPMS warnings can lead to tyre blowouts, accidents, increased fuel usage, and costly downtime—especially in commercial and logistics vehicles.
