MINNEAPOLIS — Thermo King has announced the addition of a new group of products to its growing line of PrimAir air management systems.

Acccording to Anup Shetty, aftermarket marketing manager for ThermoKing, the following PrimAir products are now available at Thermo King dealers, joining the current lineup of PrimAir standard return air bulkheads:

• Heavy duty return air bulkheads offering “industry-leading” material strength and thickness for maximum durability for the most demanding applications, such as dairy product transportation, ThermoKing said.

• Chute systems with “industry-leading” tear resistance and material tensile strength for increased durability.

• Insulated bulkheads that are durable and lightweight bulkheads for creating multiple temperature zones within a trailer.

• Two-piece return air bulkheads that help reduce short-cycling and maintain uniform product temperatures and can be removed, cleaned and re-attached in under a minute.

• Split air chute system designed to provide uniform temperature throughout the entire trailer. The unique diverter evenly distributes air to each side chute, which then guides the air to the rear of the trailer.

All PrimAir air management systems allow customers to better manage the flow and temperature of air within trailers, maintaining cargo quality, improving food safety and lowering operating costs, Shetty said.

 “The PrimAir product portfolio is designed to make Thermo King dealers a ‘one stop shop’ for their customers’ air management needs,” Shetty said. “These products are available exclusively at Thermo King dealerships.” 8
