Thermo King recently introduced two inexpensive products: a remote fuel-level indicator and an anti-theft.

The Thermo King Fuel Display is a remote fuel level indicator that's offered in two mounting options: corner or flush. Both options can be used on trailers with any brand of refrigeration unit and require a 12-volt power supply.

The Fuel Display's display screen is designed with high-visibility LEDs and an auto dim feature for easy viewing from the cab or the yard. The unit is epoxy-sealed for extreme weather protection, and includes electronics that eliminate fuel sloshing.

An integrated sensor kit for Thermo King's uP-VI and SR-2 (Smart Reefer2) controllers, which produce alarm codes in low-fuel situations is optional.

Also new from Thermo King is an Anti-Siphon Device designed to prevent fuel theft. Once attached to the fuel receptacle, the device self-locks by catching the bottom of the 3.5-in. neck to prevent removal. It has a 60 gpm flow rate and is easy to install, according to the company.
