movable bulkhead:
A thick, insulated, portable wall-like
device used to compartmentalize a temperature-controlled
truck or trailer. See
bulkhead
.
Multi-Temp:
A Thermo King truck or trailer unit capable of
maintaining different set-points in multiple compartments.
no. 1 diesel fuel:
A grade of diesel fuel formulated to
prevent “jelling” in low ambient temperatures.
no. 2 diesel fuel:
A grade of diesel fuel formulated for
moderate to warm ambient temperatures.
ohm:
An electrical unit measuring the amount of resistance
(opposition to the current flow) in an electrical circuit.
pre-cooling:
1) To cool down an empty box
(temperature-controlled area) to the desired load temperature
prior to loading. 2) To cool cargo to a desired temperature
before loading.
pre-heat:
The heating of diesel engine glow plugs prior to
start-up. Some engines use an intake manifold heater rather
than glow plugs.
pre-trip inspection:
Checking the operation of a
refrigeration system before loading.
psi:
Pounds per square inch. A unit of pressure.
1 psi = 0.069 bar = 6.89 kPa.
psig:
Pounds per Square Inch Gauge. Pressure in pounds per
square inch as displayed by a gauge calibrated to zero when
open to the atmosphere.
receiver tank:
A refrigerant storage device included in
nearly all Thermo King units.
refrigerant:
The medium of heat transfer in a refrigeration
system which absorbs heat by evaporating at a low temperature
and releases heat by condensing at a higher temperature.
refrigerant oil:
A special oil used to lubricate compressors in
refrigeration systems.
remote evaporator:
A separate evaporator unit located in a
second or third compartment of a multi-temperature truck or
trailer unit.
return air bulkhead:
A structure (metal or plastic) mounted
in the front of a trailer and designed to prevent restriction of
return air flow to the Thermo King unit due to improper
loading. See
bulkhead
.
