SAFETY

Your Carrier Transicold refrigeration unit has been designed with

the safety of the operator in mind. During normal operation, all
moving parts are fully guarded to help prevent injury. During all
pre-trip inspections, daily inspections, and problem
troubleshooting, you may be exposed to moving parts; please stay
clear of all moving parts when the unit is in operation and when the
unit main power switch is in the RUN (1) position.
WARNING
Under no circumstances should ether or any other
starting aids be used to start engine.
AUTO-START/STOP
Your refrigeration unit is equipped with Auto-Start/Stop, a valuable
fuel saving feature. When the unit is set for Auto-Start/Stop
operation it may start at any time and without warning. When
performing any check of the refrigeration unit (e.g., checking the
belts, checking the oil), make certain that the main power switch is
in the OFF (0) position.
ENGINE COOLANT
The engine is equipped with a pressurized cooling system. Under
normal operating conditions, the coolant in the engine and radiator
is under high pressure and is very hot. Contact with hot coolant can
cause severe burns. Do not remove the cap from a hot radiator; if
the cap must be removed, do so very slowly in order to release the
pressure without spray.
REFRIGERANTS
The refrigerant contained in the refrigeration system of your unit
can cause frostbite, severe burns, or blindness when in direct
contact with the skin or eyes. For this reason, and because of
legislation regarding the handling of refrigerants during system
service, we recommend that, whenever your unit requires service
of the refrigeration system, you contact your nearest Carrier
Transicold authorized repair facility for service.
BATTERY
This unit utilizes a lead-acid type battery. The battery normally
vents small amounts of flammable hydrogen gas. Do not smoke
when checking the battery. A battery explosion can cause serious
physical harm and/or blindness.

FEATURES - MICROPROCESSOR CONTROLS

This refrigeration unit is equipped with a wide range of features that

are designed to improve reliability and temperature control within
the load space.
MICROPROCESSOR CONTROLS
The microprocessor controls incorporated into this unit are the
most reliable control system available in the industry. They are also
designed to be the easiest to use, offering great flexibility in control,
yet minimal user input for normal operation -- a true “set it and forget
it” design.

1. Display window -- shows set point, box temperature, operating

mode, alarm displays.
2. Function Change key -- accesses unit set-up
displays. Refer to Page 7 for Function Settings.

62--02698 4
 3 And 4. The UP ARROW and DOWN ARROW keys are
used to alter the set point. Press the up or down arrow
keys until the desired set point is displayed on the left side
of the display window. When the correct set point is displayed,
press the ENTER key to confirm the setting.
The UP ARROW and DOWN ARROW keys are also used to
change the unit functions and scroll through the FUNCTION and
UNIT DATA screens.
5. The ENTER key confirms changes made to unit
operation and changes the set point after using the arrow
keys to adjust it. If the ENTER key is not pressed, the set
point and functions will revert to the previous settings.
6. The main unit RUN/STOP (I = Run / 0 = Stop) switch
controls the unit operation. When switched to the Run (I)
position, the unit will start in the operating mode last
entered (Road or Standby). The set point will be at the last set point
entered on the keypad.
7. The ROAD key puts the unit into Road (or diesel
engine) operation when standby operation has been
previously selected.
8. The CITY SPEED key toggles the unit between City
Speed and normal operating modes. When City Speed is
selected, the unit will run only in low speed except during defrost
cycles. This feature is useful in areas where noise is restricted.
9. The MANUAL DEFROST key places the unit in a
defrost cycle when evaporator coild temperature is cold
enough. Under most conditions it is not necessary to defrost the
unit manually as it is equipped with an air switch and defrost timer to
defrost on demand. Manual defrost may become necessary due to
ice accumulated on the evaporator coil during frequent door
openings in humid environments.
10. The BUZZER OFF key temporarily turns off the
FAULT ALARM buzzer. The buzzer indicates that a
condition exists that may affect the temperature of the
load; for example, the unit failed to start automatically, or
the box temperature is out-of-range.
11. The STANDBY key places the unit in Standby (or
electric motor) mode when the unit has been operting in
road (or diesel engine) mode.

5 62--02698
 12. The PRETRIP key initiates a check of all normal
operating modes. The temperature inside the box must
be below 5_C ¦ 1_C (35_F ¦ 2_F) to start this check.
Upon initiation, the unit will cycle through all operating modes at 30
second intervals. The display will show “PPPP” at the beginning
and will show various unit data during the pre-trip cycle. Upon
completion of the pre-trip cycle the unit will be placed into the
defrost mode.
13. The AUTO-START/STOP key toggles the unit
operating mode between Auto-Start/Stop and
continuous run. When the unit is set for Auto-Start/Stop
operation, the unit will run until the box temperature reaches set
point and then cycle off (after the minimum run time has been met)
until further cooling or heating is necessary. When in the continuous
mode, the unit will cycle between heat and cool as required to
maintain the set temperature in the body. If the set point is below
--12_C (10_F) the unit will not heat, it will run continuously in low
speed cool. When set for continuous run operation the unit does not
shut off unless the Run/Stop switch is moved to the Stop (O) position
or a unit fault occurs.
14. Unit Data -- pressing this button scrolls the
i display through the various operating condition
displays: engine temperature or battery voltage, for
example. A more complete description of the
function of this key is found later in ”Unit Data”
Section.
15. Fault Alarm -- this LED illuminates when a unit fault has been
detected.

FEATURES - SOLID-STATE CONTROLS

SOLID-STATE CONTROLS
As an alternative to the Microprocessor controller, Carrier
Transicold offered a Solid-State control system. This system is a
more conventional one that is started and stopped manually.
Below is the solid-state control panel:

The solid-state control system is designed for simple operation

while offering the maximum number of features possible.

9 62--02698
 GLOW/DEFROST SWITCH
When held in the upper position (GLOW) the glow plugs in
the engine are energized, bringing the combustion
chamber to a temperature that is sufficient to ignite the fuel
when the starter is engaged. When this switch is moved
momentarily to the lower (DEFROST) position, the unit is
place in the defrost cycle.
START/RUN/STOP SWITCH
This switch, when held in the up (START) position,
engages the engine’s starter.
When released it moves to the center (RUN) position. In
this position the unit will run in either the engine or standby mode,
depending on which is selected on the ROAD/STANDBY switch.
ROAD/STANDBY SWITCH
When placed in the upper position this switch enables the
unit to operate on the diesel engine contained in the unit.
In the lower position, the unit will operate in the standby
(electric) mode. In order to operate in this mode, the unit
must be connected to an acceptable power source.
WARNING
Under no circumstances should ether or any other
starting aids be used to start engine.

TEMPERATURE SELECTOR
The temperature selector is used to select the temperature at which
the product is to be held. It is simply rotated until the small arrow
points to the required temperature.
ROAD HOUR METER
Keeps track of the number of hours that the engine operates for
maintenance purposes.
STANDBY HOUR METER
Tracks the number of hours the standby motor in the unit runs.

62--02698 10
 This symbol represents the hour meter or running time
meter. The solid-state control system is equipped with two
running time meters; one for road operation, which is
indicated by the road symbol next to the meter, and the other
meter accumulates timer during operation in standby mode.
This indicates operation in the over-the-road operating
mode. When the switch is placed in this position, the unit
will operate the on the diesel engine. The hour meter
marked with this symbol will accumulate hours when the engine is
running.
This is the symbol representing standby operation. When
the ROAD/STANDBY switch is placed in this position, the
unit will operate in the standby (electric) mode of
operation and the standby hour meter will accumulate hours.
COOL light -- when this is illuminated on the control panel,
the unit is operating in the cool mode. The temperature
inside the body is being lowered to the required set point.
HEAT light -- when illuminated the unit is operating in the
heat mode. The temperature in the body is being raised to
the desired set point.
DEFROST -- when this light is on, the unit is in a defrost
cycle in order to remove ice build-up from the evaporator
coil. In this mode, the temperature on the thermostat
display may rise above set point for a short period of time. This in
normal and the temperature will again start to fall when the defrost
cycle is completed and the unit returns to the COOL cycle. During
defrost air is not circulated inside the body.

11 62--02698
PRE-TRIP INSPECTION

The pre-trip inspection should be performed before picking up any

load. This inspection is essential to anticipate and help minimize the
possibility of “over-the-road” problems. These checks take only a
few minutes.
1. Place the unit’s main switch in the STOP (0) position.
2. Fuel -- drain any water and impurities from the sump of the
refrigeration unit fuel tank by opening the drain-cock located on
the bottom of the tank (if so equipped). Close the valve when
only pure fuel emerges. Check the fuel level in the tank,
ensuring that the fuel supply is adequate for unit operation.
Refuel if necessary.
3. Belts -- Check the belt tension by depressing the belt with your
thumb, near the center of the longest free run of each belt.
Under moderate pressure each belt should deflect
approximately 6 mm to 13mm (1/4 inch to 1/2 inch). If the belts
deflect more than this they should be tightened (loose belts
may slip, generating heat and reducing belt life). If the belts are
too tight they should be loosened; tight belts can reduce
bearing life.
4. Battery -- on unit equipped with serviceable batteries, the level
of the electrolyte in each of the cells should be checked. If the
level is low, distilled water should be added to the correct level.
Most units, however, are equipped with low or no-maintenance
batteries; these should be
inspected to ensure that the
connections are clean and tight,
and the battery hold-down should
be checked for tightness.
5. Engine Oil -- the engine oil should
be checked last since it is
necessary for oil to drain from the
block and into the oil pan to obtain
a correct reading. Remove the
dipstick, wipe it off and re-insert it
fully into the engine block. Once
again, remove the dip-stick and
MARKS ONLY observe the oil level; it should be
NO WORDING somewhere between the full and

62--02698 12
 add marks. If it is below the add mark, add oil until the level is
correct.
6. Over-all Unit -- visually inspect the entire unit for leaks, loose
bolts, frayed, loose, or broken wires, etc. The radiator and
condenser coils of the unit should be free of dirt, bugs,
cardboard, or any other debris that may obstruct airflow across
the coils. The evaporator (located inside the body) should be
free of debris also, especially stretch-wrap, which is often used
during transport to prevent cargo shifting.
7. Truck body -- The body should be inspected prior to loading.
Check the door and vent seals for damage and wear. Inspect
the entire interior and exterior of the body for damage; check
for damage to the inner and outer skins of the body. Damage
to the insulation may compromise the unit’s ability to maintain
the product temperature by increasing the amount of heat gain
across the truck body.

15 62--02698
PRODUCT LOADING

BEFORE LOADING:
D Pre-cool the body. This will remove much of the heat from the
inside of the body, and give the product better protection when
it is loaded.
D Place the unit in a defrost cycle immediately before loading. This
will remove moisture accumulated on the evaporator coil.
DURING LOADING:
D Turn the unit off!
D Check product temperature during loading.
D Ensure that the air return and supply opening remain
unobstructed.
D Leave approximately 4 to 5 inches between the load and the front
wall for air return to the unit.
D Leave at least 10 to 12 inches between the top of the load and
the
ceiling to ensure that there is nothing to prevent airflow to the
rear of the body
D Load product on pallets to provide free air return to unit and
improve product protection.
Proper air circulation in the truck body, air that can move around
and through the load, is a critical element in maintaining product
quality during transport. If air cannot circulate completely around
the load, hot spots or top-freeze can occur.
The use of pallets is highly recommended. Pallets, when loaded so
air can flow freely through the pallets to return to the evaporator,
help protect the product from heat passing through the floor of the
trailer. When using pallets, it is important to refrain from stacking
extra boxes on the floor at he rear of the trailer, this will cut off the
airflow.
Product stacking is another important factor in protecting the
product. Products that generate heat -- fruits and vegetables, for
example -- should be stacked so the air can flow through the product
to remove the heat; this is called “air stacking” the product.
Products that do not create heat -- meats and frozen products --
should be

62--02698 16
stacked tightly in the center of the trailer. All products should be kept
away from the side-walls of the body, to allow air flow between the
body and the load; this prevents heat filtering through the walls from
affecting the product.
It is important to check the temperature of the product being loaded
to ensure that it is at the correct temperature for transport. The
refrigeration unit is designed to maintain the temperature of the
product at the temperature at which it was loaded; it was not
designed to cool warm product.

17 62--02698
RECOMMENDED TRANSPORT TEMPERATURES

Below are some general recommendations on product transport

temperatures and operating modes for the unit. These are included
for reference only and should not be considered preemptive of the
