EELLEECCTTRRIICCAALL SSHHOOCCKK

Take IMMEDIATE action after a person has received an electrical shock. Get quick medical assistance, if possible.

The source of the shock must be quickly stopped, by either shutting off the power or removing the victim. If the power

cannot be shut off, the wire should be cut with an non-conductive tool, such as a wood-handle axe or thickly insulated

cable cutters. Rescuers should wear insulated gloves and safety glasses, and avoid looking at wires being cut. The

ensuing flash can cause burns and blindness.

If the victim must be removed from a live circuit, pull the victim away with a non-conductive material. Use wood, rope,

a belt or coat to pull or push the victim away from the current. DO NOT TOUCH the victim. You will receive a shock from

current flowing through the victim’s body. After separating the victim from power source, immediately check for signs

of a pulse and respiration. If no pulse is present, start CPR (cardio pulmonary resuscitation). If a pulse is present,

respiration might be restored by using mouth-to-mouth resuscitation. Call for emergency medical assistance.

Recovering/Removing Holding Charge from Host Unit

IMPORTANT NOTICE — CHECK HOST UNIT BEFORE PROCEEDING

Units built after 01/17/22 — have a 35–70 kPa (5–10 PSIG ) holding charge of Nitrogen.

This holding charge does not need to be recovered.

Units built prior to 01/17/22 — have a 35 kPa (5 psi) holding charge of R-404A refrigerant.

This holding charge of approximately 1 kg (2 lbs.) of refrigerant must be recovered.

IImmppoorrttaanntt:: SSEEVVEERREE CCOOMMPPRREESSSSOORR DDAAMMAAGGEE will result from operating the host unit’s engine before completing the

entire system installation which includes:

• Remove the holding charge from the host unit

• Remove the holding charge of nitrogen from the remote evaporators

• Connecting and soldering all refrigeration tubing from the host unit to the remote evaporators

• Leak testing the system

• Evacuation and clean-up of system

• Charging the system with refrigerant.

NNoottee:: When recovering the rreeffrriiggeerraanntt holding charge, the host unit must be placed in the Evacuation Mode to open

the normally closed solenoid valves throughout this procedure. See “Leak Check, Evacuation and Charging

Procedures,” p. 67.

1. Set refrigerant recovery device to recover vapor.

2. Recover refrigerant vapor from the host unit to 0 kPa (0 psi) from the receiver outlet valve and suction service valve.

3. Remove the manifold gauge lines from the receiver outlet valve and suction service valve. Leave service valves

open to port to acts as vents.

IImmppoorrttaanntt:: Before proceeding, make sure all of the holding charge from host unit has been removed to prevent

personal injury!

NNoottee:: It is important to minimize the amount of time the refrigeration tubes are uncapped and open to ambient

conditions. Always keep the tubes capped until ready to connect and solder refrigeration lines.

4. Unsolder caps from the hot gas, liquid, and suction tubes on the host unit.

NNoottee:: ONLY remove the caps from both suction tubes if required for your application.

Important Installation Requirements

EEVVAAPPOORRAATTOORR LLOOCCAATTIIOONN

• The best air flow is achieved when the evaporator is installed an equal distance from each side wall.

• It is recommended that moving bulkheads not be allowed closer than 1229.4 mm (48.4 in.) or 1 pallet + 4.00 inches

from the evaporator ((DDeettaaiill II)).

• The minimum clearance from the bottom of to the top of the cargo and all sides of the evaporator except the

evaporator outlet should be 101 mm (4.00 in.) ((DDeettaaiill II)).

NNoottee:: This minimum clearance does not refer to the trailer LOAD LINE.

• The evaporator should be located a minimum of 51 mm (2.00 in.) from the trailer wall ((DDeettaaiill IIIIII)).

DDEEFFRROOSSTT DDRRAAIINNSS

• The defrost drain tube should be offset 35.5 mm (1.4 in.) from the mounting holes ((DDeettaaiill IIII)).

• The evaporator must be properly mounted to provide a slope towards the drain. This is accomplished by adding

one 3/8 in. and one 3/16 in. washers on the drain side and only one 3/8 in. washer on the other side at each

mounting surface ((DDeettaaiill IIIIII)).

• Defrost drains must exit the evaporator at a 45° angle and have a minimum downward gradient of 267 mm (10.50

in.) from the trailer ceiling to the top of the drain in the trailer wall ((DDeettaaiill IIIIII)).

WWAALLLL DDRRAAIINN TTUUBBEE RREEQQUUIIRREEMMEENNTTSS –– ((DDeettaaiillss IIII aanndd IIIIII))

• Drain Tubes should be made of CPVC (Chlorinated Polyvinyl Chloride) thermoplastic.

• Drain Tubes should be 1.00 in ID (inside diameter)

EELLEECCTTRRIICCAALL WWIIRRIINNGG

IImmppoorrttaanntt:: DO NOT CUT THE SENSOR HARNESSES!

• All electrical harnesses must secured by clamps at least every 600 mm (24.00 in).

• Additional harnesses (options, etc.) can be secured with tie bands to the harness that are secured with clamps.

TTRROOUUGGHH LLOOCCAATTIIOONN –– ((DDeettaaiillss IIVV-- VVIIII))

• The OEM and Dealer should discuss trough locations based on application before the trailer is built.

• Only one trough is required.

• The trough should be located in such a way as to allow for proper routing of the suction tube(s). Three compartment

trailers may have two suction tubes in the trough.

• A ceiling trough is recommended. If that is not possible, a wall trough should be located to allow the lowest suction

tube to be at least 25 mm (1.00 in.) above the remote evaporator suction fitting once secured to the trough.

RREEFFRRIIGGEERRAANNTT TTUUBBIINNGG aanndd CCOONNNNEECCTTIIOONNSS

• Thermo King requires the use of bulk rolled refrigeration grade tubing and tube benders to reduce fittings and

solder joints where applicable.

• The use of large radius bends is preferred over copper fitting joints.

• It is important to minimize the amount of time the refrigeration tubes are uncapped and open to ambient conditions.

Always keep tubes capped until ready to connect and solder.

• Always check tubes and copper fittings for obstructions prior to assembly and soldering.

• The use of 15% silver solder for joining all remote refrigeration tubes is required.

• Suction and liquid tubes are to be insulated when outside the trough. Hot gas tubes are to be 100% insulated.

• All refrigeration tubing must be secured by clamps at least every 600 mm (24.00 in.).

• All dual evaporator installations require two suction tubes ((DDeettaaiillss VV aanndd VVIIII)).

• Configuration X installations require two suction tubes: 1–1/8 in. for Zone 2 and 7/8 in. for Zone 3.

• Configuration Y installations require two suction tubes: 7/8 in. for Zone 2 and 1–1/8 in. for Zone 3.

• Configuration Z installations require 1–1/8 in. suction tubes for both Zone 2 and Zone 3.

• All soldering of tubes should be done according to the best practices solder document, Section 16 of the Certi-Tech

Professional Manual.

• It is required that nitrogen or another inert gas be used to purge the tubes while soldering. This prevents oxidation

and formation of scale inside tubes.

IImmppoorrttaanntt:: The following procedures should be followed to correctly purge the tubes with nitrogen when soldering.

1. Midseat the suction and discharge service valves on the host unit.

2. On one remote evaporator in each zone, connect a 6 power source to the HGS and SOL terminal strip. This activates

the Hot Gas Solenoid to allow nitrogen to flow.

3. Connect a nitrogen supply hose to the access port on the same remote evaporator that the power source was

connected. Make sure the supply hose fitting has a Schrader valve depressor to open the Schrader valve on the

access port.

4. Adjust the nitrogen flow to 5–10 CFH.

5. The nitrogen supply and 6 volt power source must be maintained while soldering the remote and host unit

connections.

• In lane configurations, care must be taken to avoid the inner walls obstructing return air to the host. Not only is host

performance impaired, but temperature management will suffer if the return air does not over the return air sensor.

DDOOOORR SSWWIITTCCHHEESS

• Door switches are recommended for all multi-temperature installations. Door switches automatically turn off

remote evaporators when the corresponding door is opened. This helps reduce the entry of warm, moist air into the

load space.

DDOOOORR CCUURRTTAAIINNSS

• It is always recommended to use a good quality insulated curtains on all doors to help limit the amount of warm,

moist air from entering the load space during door openings.

FFUULLLL LLEENNGGTTHH LLAANNEESS

• Always consider using a Precedent DE (Dual Evaporator) unit where full length lanes are required. This is the most

efficient and cost effective solution for these demanding applications, and a product unique to Thermo King.
