Parallel to the new EBS generation, other peripheral systems are also coming into focus. From July 2024, all newly registered trailers must be equipped with a tire pressure monitoring system. This results in numerous advantages that not only increase safety, but also contribute to cost savings and higher availability of your vehicles. elkatec™ supplies the appropriate cabling for all common tire pressure monitoring systems (in accordance with the new ECE 141 regulati on).
