Safety Precautions

Thermo King recommends all services be performed by a Thermo King dealer. However, there are several general safety practices you should be aware of:

DANGER: Always turn the TriPac Envidia HMI Controller OFF while refueling the truck. Fuel vapors could ignite if they come in contact with TriPac Envidia electrical or heater components.

DANGER: Hazardous Voltage! The compressor and compressor controller operates with 220Vac 1 phase voltage. Voltages of this magnitude can be lethal. All service should be performed only by a certified Thermo King technician.

WARNING: Always wear goggles or safety glasses when working with or around the air conditioning system or battery. Refrigerant or battery acid can cause permanent damage if it comes in contact with your eyes.

WARNING: Exposed coil fins can cause painful lacerations. Service work on the evaporator or condenser coils is best left to a certified Thermo King technician.

WARNING: Turn the unit HMI Controller Off before opening the Battery Box or inspecting any part of the unit.

CAUTION: Do not connect other manufacturer’s equipment or accessories to the Thermo King Envidia unit. This could result in severe damage to equipment and void the warranty!

Safety Precautions

Inverter Operation Warnings

DANGER: Do not use an inverter in life support or health care applications where a malfunction or failure of the inverter could cause failure of a life support device or medical equipment or significantly alter the performance of that equipment.

DANGER: Potentially lethal voltages exist within the inverter as long as the battery supply is connected. During any service work, the battery supply should be disconnected.

DANGER: Do not connect or disconnect batteries while the inverter is operating from the battery supply. Dangerous arcing may result.

CAUTION: Protect against possible electrical shock hazards. If the inverter is operated in wet or damp conditions a user-supplied, portable GFCI (ground fault circuit interruptor) must be connected between each inverter receptacle and the equipment it powers.

CAUTION: You may experience uneven performance results if you connect a surge suppressor, line conditioner or UPS system to the output of the inverter.

Safety Precautions

Refrigerant Oil

Observe the following precautions when working with or around refrigerant oil:

WARNING: Always wear goggles or safety glasses to protect eyes from refrigerant oil contact.

WARNING: Protect skin and clothing from prolonged or repeated contact with refrigerant oil. Rubber gloves are recommended.

WARNING: Wash thoroughly immediately after handling refrigerant oil to prevent irritation.

Refrigerant

Although fluorocarbon refrigerants are classified as safe, observe caution when working with refrigerants or around areas where they are being used in the servicing of your unit.

DANGER: Fluorocarbon refrigerants may produce toxic gases. In the presence of an open flame or electrical short, these gases are severe respiratory irritants CAPABLE OF CAUSING DEATH.

DANGER: Fluorocarbon refrigerants tend to displace air and can cause oxygen depletion which could result in DEATH BY SUFFOCATION. Provide adequate ventilation in enclosed or confined areas.

WARNING: Fluorocarbon refrigerants evaporate rapidly, freezing anything they contact if accidentally released into the atmosphere from the liquid state.

Safety Precautions

First Aid

First Aid—Refrigerant

Eyes: For contact with liquid, immediately flush eyes with

large amounts of water. Seek prompt medical attention.

Skin: Flush areas with large amounts of warm water. Do not apply heat. Wrap burns with dry, sterile, bulky dressing to protect from infection or injury. Seek prompt medical attention.

Inhalation: Move victim to fresh air and restore breathing if necessary. Stay with victim until emergency personnel arrive.

First Aid—Refrigerant Oil

Eyes: Immediately flush eyes with large amounts of water

for at least 15 minutes while holding the eyelids open. Get prompt medical attention.

Skin: : Remove contaminated clothing. Wash thoroughly with soap and water. Get medical attention if irritation persists.

Inhalation: : Move victim to fresh air and restore breathing if necessary. Stay with victim until emergency personnel arrive.

Ingestion: : Do not induce vomiting. Immediately contact local poison control center or physician.

Introduction

There is nothing complicated about operating and maintaining your Thermo King unit, but a few minutes studying this manual will be time well spent.

Performing pre-trip checks and enroute inspections on a regular basis will minimize on-the-road operating problems. A regular maintenance program will also help to keep your unit in top operating condition. If factory recommended procedures are followed, you will find that you have purchased the most efficient and dependable temperature control system available.

All service requirements, major and minor, should be handled by a Thermo King dealer for four very important reasons:

• They are equipped with the factory recommended tools to perform all service functions

• They have factory trained and certified technicians

• They have genuine Thermo King replacement parts

• The warranty on your new unit is valid only when the repair and replacement of component parts is performed by an authorized Thermo King dealer.

IMPORTANT: This manual is published for informational purposes only and the information furnished herein should not be considered as all-inclusive or meant to cover all contingencies. If more information is required, consult your Thermo King Service Directory for the location and telephone number of the local dealer.

Unit Description

TriPac Envidia is an all-electric, battery based Auxiliary Heating and Cooling Temperature Management System. TriPac Envidia allows drivers to reduce unnecessary truck engine idling, conserve diesel fuel and save money.

TriPac Envidia’s air conditioning provides sleeper compartment cooling in hot conditions. An optional fuel-fired air heater provides sleeper compartment heating in cold conditions. The all-electric operation and noise-dampening construction provides quiet operation for uninterrupted rest.

Thermo King’s patented battery charging technology automatically maintains and charges the TriPac Envidia batteries when the tractor is on the road.

Optional Shore Power Converter provides the capability of running the TriPac Envidia system or charging the batteries if 115 Vac 15 Amp electrical power is available.

NOTE: The system is designed for overnight driver comfort. Several hours of drive time are needed to charge the TriPac Envidia batteries before the next TriPac Envidia operation. Layover of more than one night may exhaust the TriPac Envidia battery reserve.

Unit Features

• Easy to operate HMI Controller.

• Superior truck cab sleeper compartment cooling.

• Quiet and efficient variable speed hermetic (sealed) air conditioning compressor.

• Smart Charger Modules (SCM) ensures proper charging and discharging of the TriPac Envidia and tractor batteries to promote maximum battery life.

• Optional diesel fuel-fired sleeper compartment air heater.

• Optional 1000 Watt inverter for on-board appliances.

• Optional Shore Power converter to extend operating time and recharge batteries.

Unit Description

Suggestions to Maximize Run Time

Maximum climate control time is controlled by the total available power reserve in the TriPac Envidia and truck batteries. To achieve maximum run time the operator should take steps to conserve power reserve by reducing power consumption, especially when outside temperature is high. Suggested steps include:

• Keep window curtains closed to reduce radiant heat that will increase cab temperature.

• Close curtain between cab and sleeper overnight to reduce air conditioning load.

• Limit the on time and number of cab lights and accessories to reduce battery power drain.

• Limit the on time and number of devices or appliances connected to the optional AC Power Inverter to reduce battery power drain.

• Plug into shore power when available. An optional power converter provides an additional source of power that will extend operation time.

System Components

The TriPac Envidia system includes several major components:

• Battery Box

• Condenser

• Evaporator/Control Box

• HMI Controller

• Heater (Optional)

• 1000 Watt Inverter (Optional)

• AC/DC Shore Power Converter (Optional)
