ENGINE
Engine power for the T-1200R, T-1000R,
T-1200R SPECTRUM and T-1000R
SPECTRUM is provided by the TK376, a three
cylinder, clean and quiet diesel engine rated at
19.6 continuous horsepower (14.6 kW) at
2425 RPM.
Engine power for the T-600R, T-800R and
T-800R SPECTRUM is provided by the engine
TK370 rated at 15.0 continuous horsepower
(11.2 kW) at 2425 RPM.
Engine power for the T-500R is provided by the
engine TK270 rated at 10.0 continuous
horsepower (7.5 kW) at 2950 RPM. A belt
drive system transfers energy to the
compressor, unit fans and alternator.
ELC (EXTENDED LIFE COOLANT)
The maintenance interval for ELC is 12,000
hours. A nameplate on the coolant expansion
tank identifies units with ELC (see “Safety
Decals and Locations”). The new engine
coolant, Texaco Extended Life Coolant, is Red
instead of the previous Green or Blue-Green
coolants.
Note: The use of 60/40% pre-mixed ELC is
recommended to ensure that deionized
water is being used. If 100% full strength
concentrate is used, deionized or distilled
water is recommended instead of tap water
to ensure the integrity of the cooling system
is maintained.
CLUTCH
The centrifugal clutch engages fully at 600 ±
100 RPM on engine operation, constantly
turning the compressor, alternator, and fans at
both high and low speed. The clutch isolates
the engine from the belt drive system during
electric standby operation on Model 50 units.
RECIPROCATING COMPRESSOR
The T-500R (w/o bypass oil filter), T-600R,
T-800R and 800R SPECTRUM feature the
reliable TK214 four-cylinder reciprocating
compressor. The T-1000R and T-1000R
SPECTRUM feature the reliable TK426
four-cylinder reciprocating compressor. The
T-1200R and T-1200R SPECTRUM feature the
reliable TK430 four-cylinder reciprocating
compressor.
HMI CONTROL PANEL
STANDARD
The Standard HMI Control Panel (Human/
Machine Interface) is used to operate the unit
and display unit information. The Control
Panel is typically located in the vehicle driver's
compartment and communicates with the base
controller using a connection on the interface
board.
PREMIUM (Not available on T500R)
The Premium Truck HMI (Human/Machine
Interface) Control Panel is available as an
option on TSR-3 applications. It is used to
operate the unit, display unit information and
access all TSR-3 Maintenance and Guarded
Access Menus. The Control Panel is typically
located in the vehicle driver's compartment and
communicates with the base controller using a
connection on the interface board.
DO NOT ADD GREEN OR
BLUE-GREEN COOLANTS TO
COOLING SYSTEMS THAT USE RED
EXTENDED LIFE COOLANTS.
