PARKING COOLERS
FOR TRUCKS 2016
COOLAIR RTX –
THE NEW GENERATION
• Runs longer
(for up to 12 hours)
• Runs quieter
• Saves fuel
The third CoolAir generation comes with an entirely new technology to continue a unique success story.
CoolAir compressor parking coolers have been around for over ten years to improve working conditions, safety and
cost efficiency in the European utility vehicle industry. Now is the time to set new benchmarks.
The new, third generation CoolAir roof air conditioners do that in two convincing ways: CoolAir RTX 1000 provides
more cooling performance and a longer running time while consuming less energy than its predecessor model.
CoolAir RTX 2000 generates more than twice the cooling power at the same running time. All of this is possible
thanks to the use of a variable speed inverter compressor, which makes for excellent cooling performance and
amazingly efficient and quiet operation.
Despite all the technical improvements the well proven CoolAir benefits have been retained. Take the vehicle-specific
installation concept, for instance, or the option to use a CoolAir split air conditioner (p. 14), if the roof version won’t
fit, or the roof window is to be retained.

A familiar picture in parking areas: truck drivers leaving the engine running for hours to use the air
conditioner or to recharge the batteries during their resting periods. This is bad for the environment,
and it’s also against the law. Tons of fuel are wasted, and fleet operators pay dearly for it. Plus, it wears
down the engine faster. A parking cooler keeps operating costs down. Especially so if it has such an
amazingly long running time like the new CoolAir RTX 1000. Equally important to fleet owners is the
fact that it improves work safety and thus ensures that the driver and freight arrive safe and sound. Last
but not least, fitting a truck with a parking cooler helps find qualified employees and keep them loyal to
the company.

Extra-long running time or extra performance: the two versions of the new CoolAir RTX parking
cooler give every driver what he needs to enjoy relaxing breaks. The RTX 1000 creates
pleasant temperatures for up to twelve hours before the battery monitor gives advance
warning and finally cuts off the power supply to keep the engine ready to start. The more
powerful RTX 2000 uses its ample capacity to face hot temperatures in the truck cabin for up
to six hours.
Added to this, the new CoolAir is amazingly quiet in operation. The two-cylinder compressor
works unnoticeably, leaving the driver to rest perfectly and letting him enjoy all the comforts of
the parking cooler: the large, high-contrast display, the individually adjustable air distribution,
the four operating modes – and the adaptive automatic mode of the air conditioner.
The RTX series has been tested in Australia under extreme temperatures and
environmental conditions to ensure best product quality and performance.

Today’s trucks are extremely complex structures. Therefore, it is important for service technicians that
retrofit products are perfectly adapted to the vehicle at hand ... “With the two CoolAir roof systems,
installation works a treat with no need to drill a single hole. The roof units are supplied completely
preassembled, their base already includes the hole patterns of all common types of trucks. All we have
to do is insert the unit, wire it up and attach the cover frame.”

• CoolAir installation concept: fast and easy installation – 100% clean removal
when the vehicle-specific installation kits or fastening frames are used
(exception: the interior evaporator SP 950I).
• Modular CoolAir assembly kit for SP 950: freedom of choice when combining
the components; tailor-made solutions
• Elegant design: all CoolAir systems perfectly match the vehicle, inside and out

Our customers kept asking us for parking coolers with longer running times,
and for use in hot climates. This is why we offer the new CoolAir generation
in two capacity versions.
The RTX 1000 with its 1200 watts capacity and up to 12 hours running time is ideal for moderate (European) temperature
zones. The RTX 2000 was designed for 2000 watts, and it had to prove its power in the soaring Australian summer heat to
qualify for use in hot climates and at daytime.
What if the two RTX systems cannot be used, because a roof mounted structure is out of the question for constructional
reasons? Then the CoolAir split air conditioner SP 950 comes into play, optionally with a roof evaporator unit (SP 950T)
or interior evaporator unit (SP 950I). An adjustable air conditioning solution for trucks with tall cabins, roof spoilers or
roof-mounted structures.
