Unit Description
Unit Overview
The Thermo King SLXi is a one piece, self-contained, diesel powered, air cooling/heating units
operating under the control of the SMART REEFER 3 (SR-3) programmable microprocessor
controller. The unit mounts on the front of the container with the evaporator extending through
an opening in the front wall.
The unit features the quiet running Thermo King TK486V engine, and the Thermo King X430P or
X426CSLS reciprocating compressor.
•
Model 30: Cooling, heating (hot gas) and defrost (hot gas) on engine operation.
•
Model 50: Cooling, heating (hot gas) and defrost (hot gas) on engine operation and electric
standby operation.
Power is provided by a water-cooled, direct injection diesel engine. The compressor is connected
directly to the engine on the Model 30. A centrifugal clutch transfers power from the engine to
the compressor on the Model 50. Belts transfer power to the fans and alternator.
During electric standby operation (Model 50 only), an electric motor drives the compressor, fans
and alternator using belts. The centrifugal clutch on the engine isolates the engine from the
compressor during electric operation.
