1 IntroductionOverviewIf the MTIS Indicator Light Comes ON DuringOperationThe Standard Meritor Tire Inflation Systems(MTIS) by P.S.I. The Meritor Tire Inflation Systems (MTIS) by P.S.I. usecompressed air from the trailer to inflate any tire that falls below thesystem air pressure setting during operation.Air from the existing trailer air supply is routed to a control box, theninto each axle. Refer to Figure 1.1. The axles act as conduits todistribute air through rotary union assemblies at the spindle ends,which then distribute air to each tire as needed. If a tire is leaking,check valves in the tire delivery lines prevent loss of pressure in theremaining tires.The MTIS indicator light on the front of the trailer will come ON toalert you if there is an excessive amount of air flow through thesystem, which can be caused by a leaking tire or a looseconnection, or both. If the indicator light comes ON duringoperation, immediately find a safe place to bring the tractor andtrailer to a complete stop. You must repair components that causedthe air leak before returning the vehicle to service.Standard MTIS does not eliminate the need to perform wheel-endmaintenance at regularly-scheduled intervals.WARNINGIf the ThermALERT system activates during vehicleoperation, you must repair or replace components that causedthe wheel end to overheat before returning the vehicle toservice. You also must install a new thermal screw, which isnot reusable. Otherwise, the indicator light will continue toremain ON during vehicle operation, even though the wheelend has been repaired. If you ignore the indicator light, andanother wheel end overheats during operation, seriouspersonal injury and damage to components can result.The MTIS with the ThermALERT system detects when air isescaping from the axle’s thermal plug and out through the hubcaptee vent, which occurs if a wheel end is operating at an abnormallyhigh temperature. The MTIS indicator light will come ON to alert youthat air flow through the system is excessive.1.Immediately find a safe place to bring the tractor and trailer toa complete stop.2.Inspect the trailer hubs for air leaks.3.Listen for the ThermALERT system’s audible sound at thewheel end. If you hear the sound, the wheel end is overheated.Do not operate the trailer until the wheel-end components arerepaired. If a wheel end overheats during operation, it canseparate from the vehicle. Serious personal injury and damageto components can result.4.If you do not hear the ThermALERT system’s audible soundat the wheel end, inspect the tires for damage. Repairdamaged or leaking tires before returning the vehicle toservice.The MTIS with the ThermALERT SystemThe MTIS with the ThermALERT system detects when air isescaping from the axle’s thermal plug and out through the hubcaptee vent, which occurs if a wheel end is operating at an abnormallyhigh temperature. The MTIS indicator light will come ON to alert youto immediately find a safe place to bring the tractor and trailer to acomplete stop.Air escaping from the tee vent produces an audible noise, whichhelps you to identify the wheel end that is overheated. Do notoperate the trailer until the components are replaced.The MTIS ThermALERT system does not eliminate the need toperform wheel-end maintenance at regularly-scheduled intervals.If the MTIS Indicator Light Comes ON Whenthe Air System is ChargingWhen you start a vehicle, the MTIS indicator light initially may comeON while the air system is charging. However, if the indicator lightstays ON for more than 10 minutes, a tire may be damaged and losingair pressure. Inspect the tires for damage and air leaks. Repairdamaged or leaking tires before returning the vehicle to service.2Meritor Installation and Maintenance Manual 14P (Revised 06-06)Indicator LightAn indicator light mounted on the front of the trailer comes ON whenthe system delivers an excessive amount of air due to a leaking tire,tire inflation system component, or if equipped with aThermALERT system, a wheel end operating at an abnormallyhigh temperature.An MTIS system with a ThermALERT system will also have aThermALERT system decal installed at the indicator light on thetrailer.

1 IntroductionWheel-End AssemblyStator and Through-TeeFigure 1.2STANDARD MTISTHERMALSCREWThe stator is located inside the axle spindle and the through-tee isattached to the hubcap. Pressurized air passes from the stationaryaxle interior to the rotating hub through a tube extending from thethrough-tee into the stator. A dynamic seal, located in thethrough-tee, allows rotation without loss of air pressure.HosesA hose is a flexible valve stem extension which mechanically opensthe tire valve stem and allows air to pass into a tire. A check valvelocated at the knurled end of a hose allows air to flow in only onedirection-towards the tire. This protects each tire from loss of airpressure if the tire inflation system, or any tire, loses air pressureduring operation.MTIS withThermALERT AXLE PLUGAXLE PLUG4006188aFigure 1.2ControlsSelf-Draining FilterThere are two sizes of tire inflation system hoses: short, for 17- and19-inch wheels; and long, for 22.5- and 24.5-inch wheels.The self-draining filter automatically removes liquids andcontaminants from the air system.Tee VentFlow Sensing SwitchThe tee vent ensures that there is no pressure buildup in the wheelend. If the MTIS is equipped with the ThermALERT system, airescaping past this vent will produce an audible sound whichindicates that the wheel end has been operating at an abnormallyhigh temperature.Deflector ShieldThe deflector shield helps prevent any contaminants such as dirtand water from entering the wheel end.HubcapThe hubcap features six vent holes designed to prevent pressurebuildup in the wheel end. Working with the tee vent and thedeflector shield, the wheel-end interior is allowed to vent whilecontaminants are prevented from entering the wheel end. Hubcapsfor oil-lubricated wheel ends typically have a side fill plug for addinglubricant.Press PlugThe press plug is used in axles with hollow spindles to seal off thepressurized axle interior from the wheel end and provide a means ofholding and securing the stator.Refer to Figure 1.2 for a comparison of the standard MTIS axle plugand the ThermALERT system axle plug.WARNINGThe standard MTIS can have a control box with either a blackflow sensing switch or a grey flow sensing switch. Bothcontrol boxes mount to the trailer in the same way. However,MTIS equipped with a ThermALERT system must have acontrol box with a grey flow sensing switch, which is moresensitive to air flow than the black switch.If a ThermALERT system has a control box with a black flowsensing switch, replace it with a control box that has a greyswitch. Otherwise, the indicator light may not come ON if awheel end overheats. Serious personal injury and damage tocomponents can result.The flow sensing switch illuminates the indicator light when thesystem delivers an excessive amount of air to either a leaking tire, aleaking tire inflation system component; or if equipped with theThermALERT system, a wheel end operating at an abnormallyhigh temperature.The control box for the standard MTIS can include a flow sensingswitch that is either black or grey. The control box for the MTIS withthe ThermALERT system must include a grey flow sensingswitch. Both control boxes mount to the trailer in the same way.Meritor Installation and Maintenance Manual 14P (Revised 06-06)3

1 IntroductionDrain PetcockFigure 1.3HOLLOW SPINDLEThe drain petcock is used to manually exhaust pressure from thetire inflation system. This enables you to perform maintenance oneither the trailer axle components or the tire inflation system.WELSHPLUGSystem Pressure Adjustment KnobThe system pressure adjustment knob is used to adjust system airpressure. The system air pressure should be adjusted in accordancewith the tire pressure required.Shut-Off Valve4000407aThe shut-off valve stops air delivery to the system.Figure 1.3Pressure Protection Valve (PPV)The pressure protection valve (PPV) ensures that air is available forother trailer functions. Air will not be delivered to the tire inflationsystem until the trailer air system is charged to at least 80 psi(551 kPa). The PPV also maintains air tank pressure if a tire or a tireinflation system component is damaged.Solid Spindle AxleMost solid spindle trailer axles have a forged spindle welded to theaxle tube. If you’re unsure of the axle type, contact the axlemanufacturer. Figure 1.4.Figure 1.4Installation and Maintenance InformationSOLID SPINDLEUse the procedures in this manual to install the tire inflation systemon either new trailer axles at original equipment manufacturers orin-service axles at fleets.The tire inflation system can be installed onto trailer axlesmanufactured either by Meritor, Holland, Hendrickson, Ingersoll,Dana, Eaton or Sudisa. When installing the system, follow themaintenance instructions provided by these various manufacturers.For trailer axles manufactured by Meritor, refer to MaintenanceManual 14, Trailer Axles. To obtain this publication, refer to theService Notes page on the front inside cover of this manual.Trailer axles may be manufactured with either hollow or solidspindles. Additionally, Meritor provides axle models prepped forinstallation of the standard tire inflation system and theThermALERT system. The system installation sequence isdifferent depending on the axle type. Refer to the information in thefollowing sections.Hollow Spindle AxleMost hollow spindle trailer axles have a spindle that’s integrallyformed out of axle tube material. A welsh plug is pressed into amachined recess in the end of the spindle. If you’re unsure of theaxle type, contact the axle manufacturer.

2 Assembly and InstallationWARNINGUse a brass or synthetic mallet for assembly and disassemblyprocedures. Do not hit steel parts with a steel hammer. Piecesof a part can break off. Serious personal injury and damage tocomponents can result.CAUTIONThe installed press plug must be seated square to the end of thespindle and inset at or below any chamfer in the axle spindlebore. A press plug that is flush with the end of the spindle is notseated correctly. Damage to components can result.19. Use a four-pound brass or synthetic mallet to drive the pressplug into the spindle bore, until the drive adaptor bottoms outsquarely on the end of the spindle. The drive adaptor sets thepress plug installation depth. There will be a definite change inthe sound and feel of the hammering when the drive adaptorbottoms out. The tire inflation system can be pressurized30 minutes after installation of the press plug.
