Spireon FL FLex Can Track Trailers in Mixed Fleets

The Spireon FL Flex is a modular trailer tracking solution that enables a mixed fleet to deploy a single small footprint device across its full range of trailers and adjust the unit to meet the specific needs of each asset.

By configuring FL Flex with options such as door, cargo, temperature and other trailer sensors, as well as solar panels to maximize up-time, fleets can streamline the deployment asset management capabilities.

In addition to offering more I/O ports for different types of sensors, the small size of the new device makes it easy to hide, enabling discreet tracking and tamper-proof connectivity. Tamper detection delivers real-time alerts when any attempt is made to remove or disconnect the GPS device.

The extended-life battery can be recharged with solar panels installed on the roof or nose of the trailer, providing continuous battery recharge without having to connect to an external power source.
