Two new models have been added to the Thermo King T-series line of refrigeration units for straight trucks . The new T-600R and T-800R feature reciprocating compressor technology for efficient operation and field-repairable design.

“All T-Series units are designed to address critical fleet issues like temperature management, fuel consumption and life cycle costs,” said Scott Bates, truck product manager. “The T-600R and T-800R deliver leading performance in these key areas.”

T-Series units include increased capacity over previous models and the TSR-2 control system with diagnostic capabilities. In addition, the units feature fuel saving technology and a lower life cycle cost using the SmartPower electric standby option, said Thermo King, which cuts fuel use and emissions by allowing the unit to operate on electric power while at a dock.
