Overworking your vehicle in extremely hot conditions is never a good idea. Whether it's your personal car, a fleet vehicle, or agricultural equipment, some temperatures are simply too hot to be safe. Operating for extended lengths of time can also cause temperature overloads.

Safe operation of fleet, industrial, and agricultural vehicles is a must. Having the ability to monitor the impact of environmental conditions will help you keep your fleet vehicles in good condition. Environmental factors play a large role in operating safely and efficiently. Work and fleet vehicles a subject to wear and tear like any car, so you need to be in-the-know about extreme heat.

The RoadWatch Temperature Monitoring System is the perfect tool for road temperature monitoring. RoadWatch will equip your operators with accurate surface temperature information. This sensor system informs you of the road temperature so you can make the necessary safety adjustments.

Multiple Applications

The RoadWatch system will alert you when the road temperature is unsafe for use. The benefit: saving your equipment from damage, and making sure the job you're doing is efficient. RoadWatch can help with:

• Tire Protection: High-heat road conditions can cause tire damage. It can also lead to overheating vehicles, equipment and operators.
• Paint Adhesion: Looking for optimal road temperatures for paint application? This system provides accurate readings that will tell you if it's safe to apply road paint.
• Surface Applications: Salt spread mix ratios change depending on the temperature of the road surface that they're applied on. RoadWatch allows you to monitor surface temperatures and adjust salt recipe ratios for proper application.

RoadWatch offers a user-friendly interface that allows for mounting in multiple locations. It is calibrated for life, eliminating the need for constant adjustments and allowing you to concentrate on the road.

High-Quality Bullet Sensors

his temperature monitoring system kit includes the sensor head, extension cable, and temperature display. It features highly-accurate Bullet Sensors. These robust sensors are:

• Fully-Sealed: The sensor connectors are mated inside a protective sleeve. This sleeve has no screws or openings on the sensor face, which minimizes the chances of damage or exposure.
• Environmentally Tested: The sensor has been tested under varying environmental conditions to ensure durability and performance.
• Quick Learners: The updated sensor adapts quickly to changing conditions and delivers timely and accurate results. (100 millisecond response time)
• Cost-Efficient: The RoadWatch system promises longevity, ensuring a low lifetime cost.
• Integration Capable: RoadWatch can function as a standalone unit or be integrated with other (already existing) vehicle controls.

The RoadWatch Bullet Sensor comes factory-calibrated at 0.96 emissivity and offers an accuracy of +/-1%. The sensor can measure surface temperatures ranging from -40 to 212 degrees Fahrenheit (-40 to 100 degrees Celsius), and air temperatures from -40 to 122 degrees Fahrenheit (-40 to 50 degrees Celsius), with a swift response time of just 100 milliseconds.

Cables are heat-shielded to protect the system components. The easy-to-service sensor and display assemblies are also easy to access.

Backwards Compatibility

The RoadWatch system is also backwards compatible. It can be used with existing cables, connectors, displays, and RS-232 Convertors. You won't have to upgrade your entire system to incorporate RoadWatch. It's a durable and cost-effective choice to upgrade your vehicle's safety features - no mods needed.
