Carrier Refrigeration launched Transform Line, a range of modernization and retrofit solutions for truck, trailer, rail and container refrigeration systems worldwide.

“Transform Line is an exciting addition to our portfolio of Aftermarket solutions that will give our customers the ability to modernize and upgrade their existing fleets, and address future demands of electrification, energy efficiency, sustainability and digital connectivity,” says Bhasker Kaushal, VP and general manager, Sensitech and Refrigeration Aftermarket, Carrier. “Transform Line solutions come with next-generation technology that extends equipment lifespan and delivers superior performance into the future. Whether the demands are for better fuel economy, enhanced cargo quality or compliance with new regulations, we offer solutions to enhance our customers’ fleets across the lifecycle.”

Key takeaways:

  • Carrier Transicold in Europe offers the Eco-Drive power module, an aftermarket product now available through Transform Line. The retrofit solution for trucks and trailers uses a hydraulic pump connected to the truck engine’s power take-off. This drives a generator that delivers the electrical power required for the refrigeration unit, providing 100% refrigeration capacity independently of the truck engine’s speed, even when idling. The Eco-Drive range provides flexibility, as it can be used for various applications and meet the needs of customers operating mixed fleets.
  • To meet California Air Resources Board (CARB) regulations, Carrier Transicold offers engine emissions systems (EES) retrofit kits for generator sets and trailer refrigeration units built prior to mid-2023 through Transform Line. These kits ensure compliance with stringent emissions standards, helping customers operating gensets and transport refrigeration units in California maintain regulatory compliance.
  • Carrier Transicold now offers EverFRESH controlled atmosphere retrofit kits for container refrigeration units. These kits, available through Transform Line, are designed to improve the quality and longevity of transported goods, ensuring they arrive in optimal condition.
  • The Transform Line complements Carrier’s existing aftermarket parts offerings, including Performance Parts, Carrier parts designed to maintain peak performance and operating efficiency of Carrier Transicold systems; Select Line, OE replacement parts; and 20 Series, quality replacement parts for competitor units, ensuring reliability and warranty assurance for those parts.
