Infrared Tire Temperature Monitoring
The TMU01 uses infrared temperature measurement to monitor tire surface temperatures without physical contact.
Up to 8 configurable temperature measurement channels can be used on each sensor, allowing users to collect detailed temperature information across the tire surface.
The adjustable refresh rate of up to 50 Hz provides frequent temperature updates for track testing and performance analysis.
The standard 110° × 6° field of view provides broad measurement coverage, while the optional 55° field of view can be used when a more focused measurement area is preferred.
Wireless Operation
The TMU01 is designed as part of CANchecked's wireless tire temperature monitoring system.
The sensor wirelessly transmits measured temperature data to the compatible CANchecked wireless receiver, which can then integrate the information into a compatible CAN Bus display or monitoring system.
Its wireless design eliminates the need for a dedicated sensor cable running from the tire area to the vehicle's monitoring equipment and allows the sensor system to be transferred between compatible vehicles.
Rechargeable Battery
The TMU01 features an integrated 250 mAh rechargeable battery and can provide up to 15 hours of active track use per charge.
The battery is rechargeable through USB-C, making the sensor convenient to recharge between track sessions.
Sensor Construction
The TMU01 uses a compact aluminum/polyamide housing designed for demanding automotive and motorsport environments.
The sensor measures 64.0 × 42.0 × 17.5 mm, weighs approximately 57 g, and features an IP65 rating for protection against dust and water exposure.
Replacement Application
The TMU01 is supplied as a single replacement sensor.
A complete CANchecked wireless tire temperature monitoring system typically uses four TMU01 sensors, with one sensor positioned at each corner of the vehicle. This replacement unit can be used to replace an individual sensor without replacing the complete monitoring system.
Optional Accessory
A sensor protection lens kit is available separately to provide additional protection for the infrared sensor components.
Installation
The TMU01 is designed for simple wireless installation and can be transferred between compatible vehicles.
Position the sensor according to the manufacturer's recommended installation location and pair it with the compatible CANchecked wireless receiver and monitoring system. Configure the desired measurement channels and refresh rate before use.
