Carrier Transicold released the new Supra 950MT truck refrigeration unit, which delivers the highest capacity performance found in a multi-temperature refrigeration system for straight trucks

, according to the company.

The Supra 950MT system has a cooling capacity of 20,500 Btu/h at a setpoint of 0 degrees at 100-degree ambient conditions. As a split system, it uses separate SlimLine evaporators for each of two cooling compartments within the cargo area. Without a host evaporator at the front, truck owners have greater flexibility configuring compartments.

Electrical systems were redesigned to be simpler, more efficient and more robust for improved reliability and serviceability. Heating functionality no longer requires a separate capacitor module, making the system easier to install.

The new unit features a dual-purpose standby motor. Rather than having separate components, the motor also works as an induction generator, providing power to run heaters and fans. Standby capability allows the unit to be plugged into a power supply when stationary, eliminating the need to consume diesel fuel during loading and unloading.

The Supra 950MT unit also includes an improved belt tensioning system, an extended oil drain fitting and other features for ease of service. The unit's housing has a more streamlined appearance while also offering better acoustics, viewing ports for checking fluid levels without opening doors on the unit, and grab bars on both sides that provide convenient grips for service technicians.
