Truck Road & Standby 18 Tonne
Introducing The Truck Road & Standby
The EX703 is a cost-effective box body refrigeration system for 18 tonne temperature controlled vehicles where a 3 phase standby is required. Suitable for boxes up to 8m long, it allows you to carry more products by offering temperature control without an independent diesel drive unit. It is class leading in performance, lightweight and have distinctive stylish looks.
A vehicle engine driven compressor powers the units. Compressor mount kits are available for a wide variety of vehicles.
An in-cab controller with digital display monitors and controls the temperature and defrosting whilst providing a constant load space temperature readout.
The stylish aerodynamic design utilises plastic covers for the condenser and the evaporator.
A vehicle engine driven compressor powers the units on truck drive.
Features & Benefits
The EX703 can operate as a chill or freeze system. Simply set the temperature you require and all functions are fully automatic.
Each EX703 unit has heat available if required. The controller simply has to be configured for this to be activated.
Approximately 190 KG installed. Much lighter than an independent diesel drive option.
Designed specifically for 18 tonne box body vehicles.
Dual evaporator systems are used for fixed freeze/chill compartments with an evaporator for freeze section and a second evaporator for the chill section avoiding cross contamination of air from one compartment to another. Talk to a GAH applications specialist for assistance in selected these systems.
Whilst cooling the load space, moisture in the air collects on the evaporator coil. GAH chill units have an automatic, hourly off cycle defrost to keep the coils free of frost. GAH freeze units have hourly, automatic and fast reverse cycle defrost for closer temperature control which allows the unit to cool for more minutes per hour.
