Carrier Transicold has upgraded the control system for its Solara trailer heating unit, which the company says is capable of generating 50,000 BTUs per hour of heating at 0 degrees ambient temperatures to protect freeze-sensitive cargo.
Carrier Transicold says its multi-temperature Vector 8600MT trailer refrigeration unit is now available with “smart” remote evaporators for easy installation along with improved reliability and operational efficiencies. Like other Vectors, the 8600MT is a diesel-electric “hybrid” and uses no drive belts.
The new Thermo King Athenia AM HVAC platform, the Athenia AMII Series, provides a 10% weight reduction and features a design that reduces installation time while enabling improvements in serviceability to reduce maintenance costs.
Carrier Transicold has introduced its ultra-high efficiency X4 Series for North America, delivering the highest refrigeration capacities currently offered in a trailer refrigeration platform, as well as compliance with Tier 4 emissions requirements from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.
