Bartec USA announced new products as part of the launch of the Rite-Sensor. Rite-Sensor is Bartec’s programmable, single part, multi-frequency, replacement TPMS sensor. According to Bartec CEO, Scot Holloway, “Not only does Rite-Sensor have great coverage, it was designed, based on our automotive OE expertise, for seamless operation with our TPMS Tools. If you have a Tech400SD or newer, simply update your tool to Release 60 and you are ready to go with Rite-Sensor.”
According to Bartec, because Rite-Sensor is a single part solution, a tire service business can greatly reduce inventory costs. Because Rite-Sensor is programmable, a technician can configure the sensor as needed, based on vehicle make, model, and year. Rite-Sensor programming is accurate because of Bartec’s unique VINdicate feature found on the Pro Series TPMS tools; connecting a Tech400Pro to the OBD-II port detects the vehicle identification number (VIN). From there, a technician can set up the tool and program a Rite-Sensor. According to Steve Long, Bartec’s director of operations, “Bartec’s process-oriented approach to TPMS sensor programming means working with and using the Rite-Sensor is very easy and very fast!”
Bartec has announced a variety of new products that now include the Rite-Sensor. Tool and Rite-Sensor bundles for the Pro Series TPMS tools are available. The Tech400Pro bundle comes with 12 Rite-Sensors and the Tech300Pro (activation only) comes with 8 Rite-Sensors. Also available is an array of Rite-Sensor and Software Certificate Bundles. Owners of a Tech400SD, Tech500, Tech300Pro, Tech300Pro/C, or Tech400, can purchase a software update certificate and receive Rite-Sensors as part of the offer.
