New Look ThinLINE® and PrimeLINE® Units

PrimeLINE models 561-2xx and greater along with ThinLINE models 541-5xx and greater have a new look (shown below), which is the result of our continuous drive to improve efficiency while also reducing overall weight and improving serviceability.

NaturaLINE™ Unit Introduction

Carrier Transicold has announced a new addition to the family of NT models, the NaturaLINE unit, to be available in the second half of this year. This article previews some of the key features of this new unit in order to provide insight into the unit’s operation, utilizing CO2 (R744), a natural refrigerant.

Evaporator Motor Adapter

With the release of the 54-00585-20 evaporator motor in 2002 (refer to bulletin CTR-SER02-10), an adapter was included with the motor for use with units that originally were equipped with motor p/n 54-00548-00. This adaptor is no longer included with the motor and can be purchased separately (p/n 54-00585-21).

Unit Model Number Configuration

When moving a controller from one platform (ThinLINE / EliteLINE™ / PrimeLINE) to another you should always load the appropriate (recip/scroll) operation software followed by model configuration.

ERR1 Reminder

In June 2011, Carrier Transicold released software version 5352 to address aging of the flash memory on older Micro-Link® 3 controllers (3+ years). With this, we also posted on the website software that can be used to reset a controller with an active ERR1.

Software Release Update

Listed below are the most current software release versions for operating and working with Carrier Transicold container units. Prior to upgrading units you should seek agreement from the equipment owners.
