UNIT DESCRIPTION
UNIT DESCRIPTION
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The T-Series unit is a microprocessor based
transport temperature control system that uses
the TSR/TSR-3 Truck HMI microcontroller to
manage system functions.
The unit is front-mounted, diesel powered
cooling and heating system designed for
straight trucks. The unit mounts on the front of
a truck with the evaporator portion protruding
into the box. It is designed for use with chlorine
free R-404A refrigerant. The SPECTRUM
condensing unit mounts on the front of the
truck cargo compartment. Remote evaporators
are used to control temperatures in up to three
individual cargo compartments.The basic
models provide the following:
Model 30: Cooling and hot gas heating on
engine operation.
Model 50: Cooling and hot gas heating on
engine operation and electric standby
operation. Electric evaporator heaters are
optional.
Engine power for the unit is provided by a
diesel engine. Optional electric standby power
(Model 50) is provided by an electric motor.
A clutch on the diesel engine isolates the
engine during electric standby operation.
The continuous monitoring function of the
TSR/TSR-3 microprocessor optimises the
unit’s performance, reducing fuel consumption
and unit down time. The unit has a self check
feature that can be run before the daily
distribution route to identify possible
malfunctions.
The built-in CYCLE-SENTRY, an exclusive
Thermo King feature, automatically starts and
stops the unit according to temperature
demands.
