Carrier Transicold unveils enhancements for electric vector TRU family

Carrier Transicold, part of Carrier Global Corp., offers its new Vector 8200 is an all-electric, engineless transport refrigeration units (TRUs) for single or multi-temperature trailer storage. It uses electricity from the grid or other external sources, adjusting its power draw to changes in a facility’s electrical supply. It features four remote evaporator choices that provide the flexibility to cool one-, two- or three-compartment trailers. Meanwhile, the next-generation Vector eCool system has a new power management architecture that maximizes energy efficiency from regenerative and grid-supplied electricity. This helps fleets balance their power generation, consumption and cooling needs. The eCool uses in-wheel electric motors to generate up to 160 kilowatt-hour (kWh) peak power and transforms the energy into electricity to run the TRU or charge the system’s 45-kWh battery. Vector eCool is North America’s only all-electric refrigerated trailer system that fully regenerates while the unit is in motion, the company says. Carrier Transicold also showcased its complete line of eCool TRUs, including Supra eCool electric TRUs for straight trucks and the all-electric Neos 200e for small delivery vehicles.
