Carrier introduces display for refrigerated haulers

Carrier Transicold’s Dual-View Temperature Display is an external temperature and status indicator that provides a reverse image in the rearview mirror so it appears correctly for drivers at a glance.

The Dual-View Temperature Display, an optional accessory, mounts on the front corner of a refrigerated trailer, behind the driver for easy visibility in the mirror. The driver can verify the temperature inside the trailer without having to leave the cab to check the unit controller, the company says. Large amber LED numerals show temperature in up to three zones in Fahrenheit or Celsius.

As a “dual-view” device, the display can be switched from reverse to normal view for yard monitoring of parked trailers. The bright display is said to be easy to read in direct sunlight and automatically dims to reduce glare for evening and night viewing.

“The Dual-View system is more than just an easy-to-read display,” says Jason Forman, senior product development manager for Carrier Transicold’s Performance Parts Group. “It provides independent verification of box temperatures via its own sensor, or sensors in multi-temp applications. It also shows refrigeration unit status ― cool, heat, defrost or warning.”

Sealed electronics protect the unit from weather and high-pressure water spray. The Dual-View Temperature Display is compatible with most Carrier Transicold and competitive trailer units, and has a two-year limited parts warranty.
