1.What are my refrigerated truck body’s length, width and height?

Guchen Thermo can supply different transport refrigeration units for big trucks, small trucks, big cargo vans and small cargo vans.

2.What is the ambient temperature and cargos required temperature?

The ambient temperature is higher; the cooling capacity is bigger for cargos. For most of Guchen Thermo truck freezer units, the units' temperature is low to -30℃ for transporting deep frozen or frozen cargoes. Also, for those who just want to transport fresh foods, the truck chiller units may be OK for usage. Of couse, different cargos may need different transporting temperature, you also should take ambient temperature and open doors frequency into consideration. For example, fruits and vegetables needs 4-8℃ for fresh transportation; ice cream needs -25℃; Fresh frozen raw meat needs -10℃. If you have no idea for what temperature you should set, please feel free to contact our professional and experienced sales staff for advice: info@guchenthermo.com

3.What is transport refrigeration unit installation stype that I choose?

Guchen Thermo can supply different types of truck refrigeration installing for different truck types. For example, the van refrigeration units mount the condenser on the roof top of vans; for most of truck refrigeration units, we can supply condenser front mounted units, but as for some of trucks, which have no enough place to mount condenser in the front, so Guchen Thermo can supply TR-550 truck refrigeration units with condenser under mounted types.

4.Do I use my units for long-distance transportation or inner city transportation?

As for the long-distance transportation, most of our customers are worried about that their truck anchors on the half road if they use the traditional units (vehicle driven types) which will result in big loss. That is because the vehicle driven units’ cooling system relies on vehicles to generated power for refrigerating air.  But Guchen Thermo can supply diesel engine driven truck refrigeration units for help. The diesel engine driven truck refrigeration units has its own independent cooling system, so when truck engine stops, cooling system continues!

5.What is standby system and do I need a standby system?

Standby system can help you save more fuel consumption to reduce transportation cost. As for the traditional truck reefer units, customers can equip an external standby system for truck refrigeration, but it may be complex to install standby system. In order to solve the problem, Guchen Thermo will launch our new moedel of truck refrigeration---- integrated electric standby system truck refrigeration units, included into TR-450S, TR-550S and TR-760S model.
