Thermo King: Product Enhancements On The Direct Drive Range

Thermo King has made some significant improvements on the B-100 and V-series multi-temp ranges. There’s a newcomer to the B-100 range – the all new B-100 30. Here are some key facts:

• Adds electric heating option to the current B100 10 (R134a)
• Same compact dimensions, same high performance
• Constant electrical cooling and electrical heating capacities
• Cooling and heating capacities independent from the vehicle engine & ambient temperature
• Compatible with vehicles equipped with original AC system
• No drive kit necessary  so no vehicle modification necessary
• Ideal for home delivery and pharma “last mile” applications.

There’s a software enhancement for all Spectrum models in the V-series range which will bring some important benefits - it’s called Zone Priority:

• Prioritises either cooling or heating in the chosen compartment
• Pulldown will be up to 40% faster
• Highly flexible:  user can choose which compartment to prioritise and do it automatically or manually, or turn off the function.

The September launch of the new V-500 Spectrum ES500 & ES100N has already won significant orders on account of these significant advantages:

• Narrower evaporator means much more flexibility
• Ideal for home delivery applications which use very small compartments
• No loss in total capacity when compared to other V-500 Spectrum configurations.
