26th October 2022

Customers can now benefit from highest cooling capacity in its segment, powerful airflow for truck bodies up to 8m long, low weight and size, and precise temperature control for fresh, frozen and heating applications.

Thermo King®, a leader in transport temperature control solutions and a brand of Trane Technologies, today introduced the new models within its C-Series for small, medium, and large trucks and vans. With the new C-550, C-650, and C-750 single temperature refrigeration units, the Thermo King C-Series now suits vehicle bodies of up to 50m3. The new Thermo King C-Series offers the high performance needed for full spectrum city distributions with fresh, frozen, and heating modes.

The compressor-driven Thermo King C-Series is suited to the rigorous demands of multi-drop distribution runs, offering powerful cooling and heating capacity to protect the load even when the ambient temperature reaches extreme highs or lows. Improved airflow maximizes the internal air circulation to protect the load within vehicle bodies up to 8 meters long. The Thermo King C-Series comes in a compact design with low weight and size to allow customers to maximize their payload volumes.
