Thermo King Trucks Transitioning to Lower-GWP Refrigerant
Thermo King, a strategic brand of Trane Technologies, has announced that R452A refrigerant will be the standard option on single and multi-temperature truck refrigeration units manufactured in North America. The transition continues Thermo King’s journey to provide more sustainable options for customers.
The new lower Global Warming Potential (GWP) R452A refrigerant is available with Thermo King’s T-Series of large self-powered truck refrigeration units for Classes 5-7 as well as the manufacturer’s larger capacity direct-drive V-Series truck refrigeration units for Classes 1-4, which offer frozen and deep-frozen setpoints. Thermo King previously announced the same option for its Precedent trailer units in January 2022.
