VeriLocation

Companies wishing to have low cost but effective trailer tracking can now benefit from VeriLocation's new PLC tracking system for minimal cost. Traditional trailer tracking requires the fitting of a complete independent GPS device such as VL-Fleet , however due to trailers not having an independent power supply and the high cost per device this option is rarely taken up. With this in mind VeriLocation have developed a small device which sends the trailers ID over the power loom and through the Susie connector to the tractor unit where a reader box is listening for the ID. This ID is then used along with the GPS data from the tractor unit to provide a "virtual" location used by the trailor. As no wiring is required and no specialist equipment apart from the ID box the cost of the system is offered at a fraction of the cost of a GPS solution but with exactly the same information i.e. where is my trailer, where has it been and what vehicle was it connected to.
