time the operator should take steps to conserve power reserve by reducing
power consumption, especially when outside temperature is high.
Suggested steps include:
•
Keep window curtains closed to reduce radiant heat that will increase cab
temperature.
•
Close curtain between cab and sleeper overnight to reduce air
conditioning load.
•
Limit the on time and number of cab lights and accessories to reduce
battery power drain.
•
Limit the on time and number of devices or appliances connected to the
optional AC Power Inverter to reduce battery power drain.
•
Plug into shore power when available. An optional power converter
provides an additional source of power that will extend operation time.
System Components
The TriPac Envidia system includes several major components:
•
Battery Box
•
Condenser
•
Evaporator/Control Box
•
HMI Controller
•
Heater (Optional)
•
1000 Watt Inverter (Optional)

Battery Box
The battery box is mounted to the truck frame rail. The battery box contains
four Thermo King NXT Absorbed Glass Mat (AGM) Deep Cycle batteries.
These batteries have been specifically designed for the TriPac Envidia
system to maximize battery life and support deep discharge cycles. They
provide increased power storage capacity for the system. The batteries are
automatically charged by the tractor's alternator when the tractor is on the
road.
Thermo King recommends that the tractor's batteries also be of the same
type as the TriPac Envidia batteries for optimum performance and battery
life.
