Truck, Trailer Refrigeration – Carrier Transicold 06DR241BCC060
Carrier Transicold’s new compressed natural gas (CNG)-powered Supra multi-temperature truck refrigeration unit has just received PIEK certification, with a noise level below 60 dB(A). Noise reduction is particularly important for truck deliveries in high density urban areas in the morning or late at night, as more municipalities across Europe enact noise ordinances. This award-winning Supra unit is ideal for urban distribution, offering fresh and frozen multi-temperature applications in up to three compartments.
Nighttime hours are ideal for urban delivery so quiet refrigeration units are key. Because traffic is less dense, route times can be significantly shortened, reducing fuel consumption and carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions, and decreasing the risk of accidents. Nighttime distribution also gives retailers more delivery options, which can help them better manage inventory levels to satisfy customer needs.
Designed to use a single fuel source for both the engine on a CNG-powered truck and the refrigeration unit, the Supra unit requires just a single refill point, which can save time and money and help increase operator productivity. Fitted with an independent tank for the refrigeration unit, it has full autonomy, maintaining cold chain integrity even when the truck is idling or stopped.
