HALO Tire Inflator
Product Information
The Halo Tire Inflator is a completely mechanical, rotary pump
designed for dual or wide-base tires on tractors and trailers. It
is an easy-to-install, bolt-on device that can be mounted in 5-10
minutes per wheel-end without the need for connection to an onboard
air compressor. The Halo is not intended to replace regular
pressure-checks and tire maintenance practices as specified by the
FMCSA in their Compliance, Safety, Accountability (CSA) Program.
Aperia encourages users to take care of their tires and Halos for
their safety.
Product Usage Instructions
Pre-Trip Inspection:
- Visually check that there is no severe damage to the
system. - Check that all screws, washers, bolts, and nuts are present.
This includes cracked, bent, melted, corroded, or shattered system
components. - Visually check that the hose(s) are attached to Halo and tire
valve stem(s). - Measure tire pressure using the T-stem valve on the hose.
Warning: Do not operate the vehicle with severely
damaged system components, missing hardware, loose hoses, or flat
tires as it poses a safety risk.
Measuring Tire Pressure:
Use the T-stem valve on the hose to measure the tire pressure or
deflate/inflate the tire manually. Warning: Do not use the
Aperia service port on the Halo to inflate a tire as it could lead
to severe leaks.
Roadside Calls:
The Halo and hoses must be removed when a wheel is removed, but
the bracket can remain installed. If the technician is unfamiliar
with the Halo, show them the Roadside Removal Instructions provided
in the packet or on the Aperia Literature Webpage.
