3-temperature capability for the SPECTRUM TS.

Adding Flexibility to the SPECTRUM Thermo King has improved the ideal solution for multi-temperature multi-drop distribution with the addition of three-compartment capability to the SPECTRUM TS truck temperature control range.

The SPECTRUM TS combines Thermo King's unique scroll compressor A scroll compressor, also known as scroll pump and scroll vacuum pump, uses two interleaved spiral-like vanes to pump or compress fluids such as liquids and gases. The vane geometry may be involute, archimedean spiral, or hybrid curves.  system with the highly efficient SPECTRUM S-2 and S-3 evaporators and the new SPECTRUM l in-cab controller. Previously only available in a two-compartment configuration, the SPECTRUM TS three temperature option offers additional flexibility to carry frozen, chilled chill

Thermo King's TS range of scroll compressor units for trucks is already renowned for its excellent temperature management capabilities and rapid pull-down and recovery times, combined with excellent fuel economy. The SPECTRUM TS, using the S-2 and S-3 remote evaporators, assures these same results to operators requiring multi-temperature capability. Fast temperature recovery ensures that even on busy multi-drop operations, temperature variation in each zone is kept to an absolute minimum.

Temperatures in all three zones can easily be monitored and controlled with the SPECTRUM TS controller Designed after extensive consultation with the fleet owners and main users of the equipment the drivers themselves the SPECTRUM TS controller provides multi-zone monitoring on one screen, and specifically addresses driver needs with simple pushbuttons, an easy to read screen and a choice of languages. These features translate into a competitive edge for the operators requiring less training and offering reductions in the number of errors made and down-time.

Other advantages offered by the SPECTRUM TS include "whisper See WISPr.  quiet" operation, and reduced maintenance costs, with Thermo King's exclusive EMI (ElectroMagnetic Interference) An electrical disturbance in a system due to natural phenomena, low-frequency waves from electromechanical devices or high-frequency waves (RFI) from chips and other electronic devices.
