The DHU processes information from its sensors providing the driver with early warnings of any potential problems. Each unit operates on its own unique code; therefore the signals transmitted by one vehicle will not interfere with another. The unit is completely sealed and maintenance-free.With the premise that ‘prevention is better than a cure’, the driver is able to change the faulty tyre, brake or bearing well in advance of a problem occurring, that may have resulted in serious, costly damage.Non-response from the driver results in SMS messages sent at 3 predetermined critical pressure levels to separate cell phones.
