Thermo King Offers New Service for Smarter and More Efficient Fleet Operations

Thermo King Offers New Service for Smarter and More Efficient Fleet Operations

Thermo King launched  the TracKing SmartConfig, a new service part of the Connected Solutions remote temperature monitoring systems offering. The TracKing SmartConfig gives transporters a quick, easy and effective way to set up one or more refrigeration units and associated telematics to perform pre-programmed operations like pre-cooling, defrosting, running a pre-trip etc. The new service allows customers to eliminate repetitive, complex and error-prone tasks by creating command templates that can be triggered at a specific time or location.

“TracKing SmartConfig is our response to our customers’ feedback to make their job easier and more efficient by putting the data and connectivity to work,” said Raluca Radu, product manager Connected Solutions at Thermo King. “We believe the TracKing SmartConfig will be a game-changer in how transport professionals, from planners, fleet managers to drivers deal with the multiple and repetitive tasks associated with the refrigeration units. They can now use TracKing SmartConfig for one of for a fleet of hundreds of units, and benefit from better performances, efficiencies and cargo security regardless of the type of transported goods.”

With Thermo King’s TracKing SmartConfig customers can among others:

  • Gain efficiencies and reduce human error by scheduling recurrent activities such as pre-cooling, defrosting or running a pre-trip

  • Customize their cargo’s journey and receive event notifications based on location (geo-fence) and time, sent to specifically authorized people

  • Schedule end-of-trip reports for the customers

  • Send two-way commands to any number of units at specific times or locations.

Case Study – Effect of Louvers or diffusers on air flow distribution and cooling time on a meat log during Chill cycle

By Kushal Aurangabadkar An experimental analysis was conducted on a cooler space measuring 3.66 m × 6.096 m (12.0 ft × 20.0 ft), equipped with an ammonia refrigeration coil, five 30 cm (12 in.) fans, and five diffusers. The study measured airflow patterns, cooling rates, and heat transfer efficiency in meat storage by testing two configurations:

Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) for Modular Refrigeration Systems in Life Sciences Distribution Centers

by Ramez Naguib, P.E. Introduction Life sciences distribution centers are under immense pressure to deliver consistent temperature control, comply with increasingly stringent regulations, and optimize operational efficiency. Traditional built-up refrigeration systems often prove cumbersome, costly, and slow to implement. In contrast, modular, factory-assembled refrigeration systems have emerged as a compelling alternative. Drawing on lessons from
