Unit Description
Introduction
The Thermo King TriPac Auxiliary Heating & Cooling
Temperature Management System allows drivers to reduce
unnecessary truck engine idling, conserve diesel fuel and save
money. TriPac provides truck engine preheating, battery
charging and truck cab sleeper compartment climate control.
By using TriPac, drivers can reduce fuel cost, rest comfortably
during stops and comply with local, state and federal anti-idle
laws. Reducing unnecessary truck engine idling also reduces
engine wear and extends engine maintenance intervals.
TriPac’s own diesel engine uses an automatic start/stop feature
for additional fuel efficiency.
TriPac’s two-cylinder diesel engine is EPA Tier 2 approved.
An automotive type air conditioning compressor is used for
sleeper compartment cooling. A fuel-fired air heater provides
sleeper compartment heat in cold conditions. Voltage sensing
automatically charges the truck batteries from TriPac’s 12-volt
alternator. Noise dampening construction assures quiet
operation. Truck engine preheating provides easier cold-
climate starts by exchanging coolant between TriPac and the
truck engine. Optional Closed Loop Cooling allows the TriPac
to operate independently of truck engine coolant. An optional
inverter provides 120-volt power to operate on-board
appliances. The optional Arctic package aids truck engine
startups in cold weather by sensing low coolant temperature.
The TriPac is started to heat the coolant as required.
