System Overview
• The Aeris tire inflation system is designed to automatically inflate tires that are below the target
pressure setting. The system uses air from the trailer’s compressed air tank. The compressed
air tank pressure setting must be higher than the targeted tire pressure setting. Failure to have
the air tank pressure above the target tire pressure prevents proper operation of the inflation
system.
