A device (10) for filling a pneumatic tire and sensing the air pressure therein has a check valve (20) disposed within a valve stem (126b) and a pressure sensing switch which is temperature compensated to adjust for air pressure changes within the tire due to changes in ambient temperature. Substantially perfect compensation can be achieved, within a limited range of operation, whereby the set point pressure versus temperature characteristic will track with the related tire pressure versus temperature characteristic. A sealed capsule (110) is assembled and pressurized prior to installation within the device. A manual set point calibration feature is provided. The switch can be employed independently of, as well as in conjunction with, the check valve.
