Advanced Charging Technologies unveils Polarlink to help fleets cut fuel use and lower TRU operating costs
Key takeaways
- Polarlink gives fleets a connected electric power source that cuts diesel use during parked TRU operation.
- The system’s weatherproof, continuous-duty design supports reliable TRU performance across harsh environments.
- ACTview connectivity enables real-time monitoring, reporting, and cost tracking to improve TRU operational management.
Advanced Charging Technologies (ACT) recently launched Polarlink, a connected power source for transport refrigeration units that reduces fuel consumption, lowers operating costs, and supports longer equipment life while trucks are parked. The company, which provides power solutions for fleet and logistics operations, delivers Polarlink with 25 kW of output power (30A max) to support electric TRU operation while reducing noise, emissions, and maintenance demands.
Polarlink is engineered for consistent performance in harsh environments, featuring a NEMA 3R enclosure that resists rain, dust, and temperature extremes from 122 degrees Fahrenheit to -40 degrees. The system is designed for continuous duty across distribution centers, cold-chain sites, and logistics yards.
Cloud-connected and cellular-enabled, Polarlink provides operators with real-time visibility through ACTview, enabling remote monitoring, energy measurement, automated reporting, and billing support. These tools help facilities track usage, manage cost recovery, and support data-driven decision-making. Polarlink is available through ACT’s authorized dealers and partners.
"Polarlink delivers the reliability refrigerated operations require," Michael K. Nelson, president of ACT, stated. "It provides a connected power source that eliminates diesel use during idle operation, parking, supports continuous performance, and enhances operational efficiency for fleets."
