TriPac
Thermo King's electric
TriPac Hybrid Auxiliary Idle
Reduction and Temperature
Control System is available
with the company's Closed
Loop Cooling option designed
to reduce installation com-
plexity. An emergency tractor
alternator backup allows
TriPac to run independently of
the tractor's cooling system,
making the unit suitable for
drivers who frequently oper-
ate in warm climates.
