UN R141: Revised proposal for the 01 series of amendments
Document WP.29/2021/10/Rev.1
1 February 2021

Text prepared by the experts of TF TPMSTI in order to align with the provisions of European Union Regulation 2019/2144 and to introduce the TPMS requirements for all vehicle categories, including trailers. The proposal addresses the communication interface protocol of TPMS between towing and towed vehicles of categories N2, N3 and O3, O4, respectively (described in Annex 5 on the basis of the ISO bus requirements) in alignment with UN R13 and ISO updates. The proposal further corrects and clarifies provisions across TPMS, TPRS and CTIS.

4. (e) | UN Regulation No. 141 (Tyre pressure monitoring system)

25. The experts from the Task Force on Tyre Pressure Monitoring System and on Tyre Installation (TF TPMSTI) reported on their progress (GRBP-75-11) and introduced a proposal that aimed at implementing the requirements for a Tyre Pressure Refill System (TPRS) and a Central Tyre Inflation System (CTIS) (ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRBP/2022/2 and GRBP-75-10). The expert from CLEPA suggested further amendments (GRBP-75-33 and GRBP-75-34).

26. GRBP adopted the proposal, as amended by GRBP-75-10 and GRBP-75-33, and requested the secretariat to submit it for consideration and vote at the June 2022 sessions of WP.29 and AC.1 as draft Supplement 2 to the 01 series of amendments to UN Regulation No. 141.

The expert from TF TPMSTI presented further amendments to UN Regulation No. 141 that introduced an alternative procedure for type approval of trailers (vehicles of categories O3 and O4), regarding their Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS), Tyre Pressure Refilling System (TPRS) and Central Tyre Inflation System (CTIS) (ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRBP/2021/20). GRBP adopted these proposals, as amended by GRBP-74-37, and requested the secretariat to submit them for consideration and vote at the March 2022 sessions of WP.29 and AC.1 as part of draft Supplement 1 to the 01 series of amendments to UN Regulation No. 141.
