General Description
General Features
Thermo King’s Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning (HVAC) systems
provide cooling, dehumidifying and heating of the air.
Units contain refrigeration circuit. The refrigeration medium is charged/
transported by a compressor via installation pipes & hoses. Components are
arranged for easy access and service through removable covers.
The units, compressor and other accessories are controlled by an Electrical
control system. This Control system allows driver to control the operating
conditions via Controller (also called driver panel) located on
the bus’ dashboard.
Different applications need different control solutions, and Thermo King’s
controllers have been developed to meet those needs.
Thermo King’s range of bus HVAC controllers allows the operator to easily
and accurately control the climate in his vehicle and ensure the comfort of
his passengers, independent of outside conditions.
Easy to read displays present just enough information to monitor
temperature set-point and system parameters. Touch buttons and analogue
dials offer an intuitive interface for fine tuning of cooling, heating and
ventilation.
Diagnostic features are built-in to reduce maintenance and repair costs.
Each bus is different in terms of structure, ambient conditions, operator and
passenger needs. Thermo King not only has a wide portfolio of different
driver panels but also the expertise to customize the software for most
streamlined HVAC functionality in a bus fleet.
