Growing Market

Tire Pressure Monitoring Systems (TPMS) first started appearing on vehicles in 2004, and in 2008 it became mandatory that all new light vehicles sold in the U.S.
have this important safety system. Did You Know
TPMS sensors generally last 5-10 years before the original batteries fail. From 2013 to 2017, 84 million new TPMS-equipped vehicles were added to the road – that represents 336 million replacement opportunities (even more if the spare requires service).
TPMS SENSORS

Sales Opportunities

TPMS sensors are sealed units powered by batteries, with the typical lifespan of these batteries being 5-10 years.
When new tires are being installed, reusing old sensors doesn’t make sense, as they’re susceptible to failure.
Standard® Pro Training Tip Canned tire sealants can cause immediate damage to TPMS sensors. If any type of sealant has been used, a new TPMS sensor should be installed.
When it’s time for the third set of tires, it’s time for new TPMS sensors. Original Set of Tires
On the vehicle from 0 to 35,000-50,000 miles or around 4-5 years

Second Set of Tires
On the vehicle until the odometer reads 75,000100,000 miles or the vehicle has been on the road for 8-10 years Third Set of Tires
Typically installed on an 8 to 10-year-old vehicle, when the TPMS Sensors are nearing the end of their service life

Impact on Vehicle Systems

Low air in a tire can lead to safety issues like the risk of hydroplaning, diminished brake performance, delayed steering response, and a chance of a blowoutUnderinflated tires can cost a motorist more than $200 more in fuel per year A sensor relearn procedure should be performed on any vehicle with TPMS after every tire rotation or replacement

What’s New

TPMS sensors have now become common vehicle safety equipment. Standard® is committed to regularly introducing new TPMS Sensors to cover new applications.

Manufacturing

Standard® TPMS Sensors are designed and manufactured using the latest technology to meet OE performance in compliance with all SAE2657 specifications.
Every Sensor is precision engineered for application-specific operation and a long service life. Did You Know
Our facility produces more than a million Sensors annually, earning international and national certifications including U.S. FCC, European E-Mark, Canada IC, and Taiwan NCC while meeting FMVSS138, SAE J2657, ISO9001, and IATF 16949 quality standards.

Testing and Validation

Each Standard® TPMS Sensor undergoes extensive testing to ensure performance and durability.
We subject our Sensors to SAEJ2657 certification standards including operational temperature, thermal shock, extreme temperature, humidity, frost, proof pressure, rapid deflation, contamination, salt fog, drop, centrifugal force vehicle speed, and mechanical vibration testing.
Did You Know
Our results are validated by live 168-hour on-vehicle testing at independent labs.
Standard® TPMS Accelerated Life Test
During normal usage, TPMS sensors are only active for a few hours per day. To make sure our sensor batteries last, we subject them to an Accelerated Life Test.
First, we load the TPMS Sensors in the testing chamber.
Next, we run the test 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
The result is a TPMS sensor battery that lasts, keeping this important safety feature running.

Standard® Quality

QWIK-SENSOR® Multi-Frequency TPMS Sensors combine all frequencies into a single sensor, eliminating duplication of inventory. Available with a factoryinstalled rubber or metal valve stem.
Faster programming times and longer battery life are enhancements engineered into the QS106.
Did You Know
The required sensor programming can be completed before or after installation, and while under pressure.With more than 250 SKUs, Standard® OE- Matching TPMS Sensors provide 99% coverage – the best in the industry.
Pre-programmed from the factory with exact vehicle-specific OE application software, Standard® TPMS Sensors can be directly installed. Some manufacturers use ABS wheel speed sensors to detect tire inflation changes – so check out Standard’s ABS Sensor program

Live Sensor Feature

Live Sensor Technology enables the Standard® team to update software as needed. Updates can be rolled out the same day, in as little as a few hours.
For example, a tech needed to program a sensor for a 2021 Toyota CH-R. This application was originally missing from the tool, but after a short review, our team was able to add the coverage, and the technician was able to program the sensor that same day.STANDARD® TPMS SENSORS

Standard® Pro Training Tech Tip

Every time a tire is removed from the wheel, the TPMS service parts such as valve stems, seals, nuts, washers, valve cores, and caps should be replaced, as these parts are all exposed to extreme weather, corrosion, and aging.
Standard® Pro Training Tip
A relearn should also be done each time tires are reinstalled to ensure that the proper tire location is detected.Standard® TPMS Service Kit Assortments and Tool Kits TPMS Service Kit Assortments from Standard® include the most popular service and valve kits, including valve stem rebuild kits, nickel-plated valve cores, valve caps, and valve core torque tools.
