ALTERNATOR operating mode (while driving)

The image shows the R2 M-0-A variant

Important Disconnect the mains plug before setting off!
  1. Switch: "Alternator" position

    Note In the case of articulated trains or semi-trailers, check whether the connecting cables (spiral cables) are plugged in; if necessary, plug in the connecting cables.

  2. Start the truck engine

While driving, the refrigeration system(s) can be operated using the universal remote control(s) in the driver's cab.

Articulated trains have a second universal remote control for operating the refrigeration system on the trailer in the driver's cab.

The refrigeration machine can be operated when the vehicle is idling during short downtime periods. However, the refrigerated body should be pre-cooled in mains operating mode. To prevent damage caused by overheating, the alternator is switched off with a temperature switch. In the event of overheating, the alternator switches off. After cooling down, the switch resets and the refrigeration system can be put back into operation.
