Thermo King Introduces Smaller and Lighter Bulkhead Evaporator and New Split System Solutions

All of these systems are compatible with the slim-line condenser system which was released last year. The condenser provides the industry's most compact solution and the lowest profile, measuring just six inches above the roof. 

Rooftop placement of the condenser reduces installation time and lessens refrigerant charge because it can be installed directly above the evaporator toward the rear of the vehicle. Reduced hose and harness lengths and the solution's modular design also contribute to reduced installation time. Placing the condenser on the rooftop instead of in the traditional skirt location also removes it from exposure to road heat and debris, and reduces the chance of collision damage.

All SLR, SA and BE series systems are available with three different controllers: Standard, the ClimaAire 1D with diagnostics, and the Intelligaire III microprocessor with advanced diagnostics and J1939 CANBus communication capability. The SA-400, SA-600, SA-800, and BE-550 are all manufactured in the United States to allow for a minimal lead-time and to ensure that they meet all Buy America requirements.
