3.5 INTELLISET
Products carried or stored in a refrigerated compart-
ment require a multitude of refrigeration unit settings
that must be checked and, if required, reset each time
a new product is loaded. The APX control system
offers the settings necessary to meet these require-
ments. IntelliSet is a feature that allows pre-selection
and naming of the necessary settings for over 30 differ-
ent products. The operator may then call up the set-
tings by simply selecting the assigned IntelliSet name.
For example: A load of apples may require setting the
control system for continuous operation at 35°F (1.7°C)
with a defrost every 3 hours while a load of cheese
may require the same operation with setpoints ranging
from 35°F to 42°F (1.7°C to 5.6°C) and a load of ice
cream requires Start-Stop operation at -22°F (-30°C)
with defrost at 12 hour intervals. The settings required
for each product may be entered into the control sys-
tem and then locked so they cannot be changed. In the
case of the load of cheese, the
range of setpoints may
be locked, leaving the operator the ability to change the
setpoint within the locked range.
When a load of apples is going to be picked up, the
operator simply selects “APPLES” from the IntelliSet
menu; for cheese, “CHEESE” is selected; for ice
cream, “ICE CREAM” is selected. With each selection,
the control system automatically re-programs the set-
tings to provide the best temperature control, fuel econ-
omy, and performance for that particular product.
NOTES
1. The above settings are examples of possible
settings. Factory IntelliSets are available from
your authorized Carrier Transicold Truck/Trailer
dealer
2. IntelliSet may be pre-programmed as “IntelliS-
leep” which allows Sleep Mode to be entered by
simply changing to that IntelliSet.
3. Range Protect may be applied to as many Intel-
liSets as desired. Range Protect is designed to
prevent freezing or overheating of non-sensitive
cargo by locking the unit in Start-Stop Operation
when the compartment temperature is in the
preset range (default range is 35 to 70°F, 1.6 to
21.1°C). Range Protect offers increased fuel
savings over normal Start-Stop Operation.
