The cold inflation pressure is the tire pressure when the air in the tire is “cold,” roughly the same temperature as the air outside of the tire.
The Halo mounts directly to the axle cap or hub cap using a bracket similar to that of a hubodometer.
An experienced tech, someone who has installed 1 or 2 Halos, can outfit an entire tractor or trailer in 20-30 minutes.
The Halo is compatible with the majority of class 7 & 8 tractors and trailers, box trucks, buses, and refuse vehicles.
The Halo will be compatible with the majority of class 7 & 8 tractors and trailer wheels, hubs and tires. The Halo device currently is NOT recommended for use on wheels with convex shape (e.g. the steer positions of Class 7 & 8 tractors/buses). The convex shape of the Steer tire wheel end makes the Halo device more difficult to safely mount via a bracket system. We are exploring options for this wheel position and should have a solution in the future.
The Halo will operate effectively for 500,000 miles or 10 years, depending on the vehicle’s annual mileage, under normal operating conditions.
The Halo weighs approximately 5 lbs. and will not cause wheel imbalance issues because it is mounted near the center of the wheel end (like a Hubodometer). In our real-world testing with numerous fleets spanning more than two years and driving over eight million miles, there has not been any incident where the Halo device caused noticeable wheel balance issues of any kind.
The hoses and connectors are similar to those used in central tire inflation systems. They are road tested and proven to be reliable and robust for this type of application.

Ask your Aperia Sales representative for further information. Extended warranty plans can be quoted for large purchases.

The Halo Connect is a one time purchase of $850 for your hardware. The monthly connectivity fee is $10 a month.
80 – 120 PSI
We set PSI for you before shipping out your Halo. We then seal the Halo for life. This way no salt, dust, mud can get inside. Therefore the set point cannot be altered once set.
