SENSORS
Receiving critical sensory data about your trailers has never been easier.
TrackPoint's Tr/IPSNET™ sensors communicate wirelessly with the Tr/IPS™ MCU,
meaning no holes drilled and no wires run in your trailers.
Receiving critical sensory data about your trailers has never been easier. TrackPoint's Tr/IPSNET™ sensors communicate wirelessly with the Tr/IPS™ MCU, meaning no holes drilled and no wires run in your trailers.
Temperature Sensor
The Tr/IPSNET™ temperature sensor measures temperature inside a refrigerated
compartment. The self-contained wireless sensor can be placed in any
location in the refrigerated compartment, and a sensor can be installed in
each compartment of a multi-compartment reefer.
The sensor measures temperature in the compartment every minute, and can be
configured for your specific requirements to automatically send messages at
regular intervals. In addition, the sensor can send alert messages when the
temperature varies by a configurable amount.
- Measurement frequency: 1 minute
- Automated reporting interval: Configurable, from 15 min – 24 hours
- Temperature variance reporting: Configurable, as tight as ±5°F
- Temperature measurement range: -15°F to +160°F (-25°C to +70°C)
- Battery life: 2-5 years, depending on configuration
- Measurement accuracy: ±2°F over the operating range, typical
- Installation: Peel-and-stick or screw-mount
Cargo Tracking Sensor 
The Tr/IPSNET™ cargo sensor uses ultrasound technology to detect objects in the nose of the trailer. The sensor detects the presence of objects in the nose of the trailer, and sends messages based on transitions between Full and Empty, as well as configurable levels between full and empty. Multiple sensors can be placed in the trailer for LTL or similar applications. The sensor is self-calibrating to allow for installations in a wide variety of trailer configurations.
The cargo sensor features advanced algorithms to prevent false load transition messages. The sensor determines the load status every 15 minutes, and confirms the measurement after 5 minutes if a change in status is detected. Additionally, the sensor will only determine load status if the trailer is not in motion to eliminate measurement errors.
Measurement pattern: ~8 foot diameter at the trailer floor
Measurement frequency: 15 minutes
Confirmation period: 5 minutes
Operating temperature range: 32F to +160°F (0°C to +70°C)
Battery life: ~3 years
Installation: Peel-and-stick or screw-mount
- Measurement pattern: ~8 foot diameter at the trailer floor
- Measurement frequency: 15 minutes
- Confirmation period: 5 minutes
- Operating temperature range: 32F to +160°F (0°C to +70°C)
- Battery life: ~3 years
- Installation: Peel-and-stick or screw-mount
Door Sensor
The Tr/IPSNET™ door sensor uses a magnetic sensor to determine when the
trailer doors are opened or closed. With each instance, the sensor sends a
wireless message to the Tr/IPS™ MCU mounted on the trailer, which then adds
the standard GPS date, time, location, and device status, and sends the
message to the CONNECT™ web application.
- Measurement frequency: Instantaneous
- Measurement distance: Make/break at < ¾"
- Operating temperature range: -15°F to +160°F (-25°C to +70°C)
- Battery life: ~3 years
- Installation: Peel-and-stick or screw-mount to trailer door and
inside wall
