This trailer is designed for the transport and distribution of foodstuffs requiring a controlled temperature regime. The vehicle’s gross weight is 6,500 kg, its kerb weight is 4,730 kg, and the maximum axle load is 2 × 3,000 kg. The trailer’s overall dimensions are 6,540 × 2,200 × 2,550 mm (length × width × height).
The trailer is based on a welded steel frame consisting of I-beam side members and cross members, which is hot-dip galvanised to ensure high corrosion resistance and a long service life. The front section of the frame features mounts for three earthing rods and a compartment for two walkways. The rear section of the frame houses a spare wheel and a pair of supports. Handling of the trailer is facilitated by four transport eyes and two recovery eyes. The equipment includes a height-adjustable drawbar with a replaceable 40 mm diameter eye or a NATO-style eye, and a height-adjustable manoeuvring wheel.
The chassis is fitted with ADR axles with leaf spring suspension and drum brakes. The trailer is fitted as standard with 335/80 R20 tyres, which are suitable for use in demanding conditions.
The body is constructed from sandwich panels and is divided into three separate stainless-steel compartments designed for contact with foodstuffs. Each compartment has a capacity of 1,000 litres and is fitted with LED lighting. Two of the compartments can be operated independently as refrigeration or freezer units, with an adjustable temperature range from +5 °C to −18 °C. Each compartment contains three height-adjustable shelves with a load capacity of 100 kg. Access to the compartments is provided via side doors on both sides, which are lockable and designed to be sealed. The doors are fitted with perimeter seals, and the entire body structure is designed for easy cleaning with pressurised water. Drainage channels with removable plugs are also included.
The rear compartment is designed for transporting crates containing kitchen equipment. A generator is located at the front of the trailer to power the trailer’s electrical equipment, whilst a refrigeration and freezing unit is installed on the roof of the bodywork. The control panels for both the generator and the refrigeration unit are also situated at the front of the vehicle, allowing for convenient operation.
The braking system is a dual-line air-operated system and includes service, parking and emergency brakes. The standard equipment is complemented by a Wabco ABS/EBS system. The electrical installation utilises screwless connections and the ASS3 quick-connect system without terminal blocks. The lighting comprises ECOLED II rear combination lamps and LED position lamps. For connection to a towing vehicle, the trailer is fitted with a 15-pin electrical socket and is supplied with a 24 V to 12 V adaptor and a 12 V to 7-pin adaptor.
