Solutrans 2021: Thermo King introduces battery system for E200 cooler
The Irish cooling unit specialist Thermo King is further pushing the electrification of cooling systems and has introduced a battery storage system for the first time at the Solutrans trade fair in Lyon, intended to be combined with the E-200 electric cooling machine. This aims to enable reduced-emission or emission-free city deliveries with a closed cooling chain, even if the driver stops for a delivery, takes a break, or needs to park the vehicle for an extended period. The new battery unit is suitable for medium-sized electric and conventionally operated delivery vans and trucks. The new lithium-ion battery (Li-ion battery) is offered by Thermo King in 1.8 kWh and 3.6 kWh versions and is self-produced.
"We have developed our own lithium-ion battery to fully integrate it into the E-200 machine system and to enable our customers to fully leverage the benefits of patented, intelligent, and sustainable energy management," advertises Eneko Fernandez, Truck Product Manager at Thermo King.
Unlike typical small truck solutions for diesel combustion engines, the E-200 cooling machines deliver constant performance in up to two cooling zones independent of vehicle engines and work with both electric and conventional vehicles, Fernandez further outlines the advantages.
Emission-free Delivery in the City of Trumpf
Emission-free delivery is particularly essential for home deliveries and other urban transports with frequent deliveries and door openings, short driving distances, and repeated stops in traffic. The solution should also be compatible with the start/stop functions of conventionally powered vehicles.
The manufacturer sees the following unique features:
- A single control system and integration into the Thermo King telematics system
- A single charging plug and battery charger physically integrated into the condenser for quick, easy, and clean installation on the driver's side
- Sleek design for easy installation under the passenger seat of most vehicle models
- Simultaneous cooling and charging of the battery in standby mode
- Full cooling performance when the vehicle is idling
- Full compliance with R100 safety requirements for transport applications by the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe (UNECE) and certified for electromagnetic compatibility with vehicles in accordance with UNECE R10.
What does that mean?
For electric vans used in refrigeration, the energy-consuming cooling unit was usually the bottleneck - manufacturers of cooling units are currently addressing this issue - and it appears to be solvable.
