ECargosens
The load monitoring system eCargosens (hereinafter - “System”) for vehicles with air suspension is designed to monitor the load of every axis of the vehicle’s chassis based on the measurement of the air pressure in the air suspension’s system.
The eCargosens system consists of one eCargosens DS central unit (hereinafter - “central unit”) and several measurement units or eCargosens Air sensors (hereinafter - “Sensor” or “Sensors”). The number of Sensors installed on the vehicle depends on the number of axes the vehicle has
The Sensors measure the air pressure and - subsequently - the weight (load). The central unit perfoms the function of receiving data from sensors via the BLE 5.0 LR channel (data transfer protocol - Escort BLE eCargosens) and their further transmission to a tracker device (for example, a GPS/GLONASS navigation terminal) via RS-485 interface (data transfer protocol - LLS).
More detailed technical specifications (central unit) are presented in the device's data sheet.
More detailed technical specifications (sensor) are presented in the device's data sheet.
Operating and data transmission principles
The Sensors must be connected to the air suspension system of the vehicle. They measure the air pressure in the air suspension and calculate the weight that is distributed onto a particular axis based on a calibration table that must be created and saved in their memory.
