Carrier Transicold introduced the Vector 8200, an all-electric, engineless refrigeration unit with single and multi-temperature capabilities designed for trailers used as stationary cold storage.
“As companies seek to manage their operating costs and impact on neighbors and the environment, the Vector 8200 is a quiet, durable, intelligent all-electric solution for single- or multi-temperature trailer storage,” says Arthur Pluta, electrification product manager, Truck Trailer Americas, Carrier Transicold.
Key takeaways:
· The Vector 8200 uses electricity from the grid or other external power sources, eliminating the fuel consumption, emissions, noise and operating costs associated with a diesel-powered engine and generator.
· Its TRU-Demand E-Drive energy management system monitors the power draw and adjusts to changes in a facility’s electrical supply, maintaining voltage during brownout conditions and preventing grid strain when multiple units restart after power outages.
· Four remote evaporator choices provide flexibility to cool one-, two- or three-compartment trailers.
- The Vector 8200 delivers up to 58,000 BTU/hr at 35°F, ensuring reliable temperature control for sensitive cargo. It also provides electric heating and defrost.
- It features IntelliSet technology with ProductShield for precise temperature management; and provides comprehensive fleet intelligence, monitoring and two-way control capabilities.
- The Vector 8200 features a fully hermetic electric scroll compressor, high-efficiency microchannel condenser, maintenance-free AC fan motors and an electronic expansion valve. Options include a high-power 40-amp battery charger and a TRU-mounted solar charging system.
