1 INTRODUCTION

Introduction

CiDRA’s AIRtrac Mobile System is the first and only device to

continuously measure and report the air content of wet concrete in a

truck mixer drum while being transported from batch plant to job site.

This manual covers the basic installation, setup, operation and

maintenance of the AIRtrac Mobile System.

In all cases, local safety and operating practices take precedence over

the information contained within this document.

AIRtrac Mobile System, Hardware and Equipment

The AIRtrac Mobile System hardware consists of a drum-mounted

sensor, chassis-mounted receiver module, in-cab mounted display,

cellular telematics module, battery charger and associated

cables/connectors.

The sensor is mounted to a hatch adapter panel that replaces the

existing drum access hatch as shown in Figure 1. Numerous hatch

adapter panels are available to fit various truck mixer drum style.

The sensor is powered by a rechargeable battery and communicates

wirelessly to the receiver module which is mounted on the back of the

truck cab or to the truck frame as shown in Figure 2.

The in-cab display shows concrete air content (%), concrete

temperature (F or C), drum speed (rpm) and sensor battery charge

level (% remaining) as shown in Figure 3.

The telematics module uses cellular communication to transmit

measured data to a secure cloud server where it can be accessed

through web-based portal or through an API.

The battery charger is located inside the truck cab and is powered by

the truck 12 VDC power.

Note: The AIRtrac Mobile sensor housing is made of hardened

material that is well suited for the high abrasion environment inside a

concrete mixer. However, to prevent damage that would require

sensor replacement, care must be taken not to strike the face with a

jackhammer, chisel, etc.
