Fish haulier nets improved fuel efficiency with Carrier’s Vector 135004 November 2015

Fresh fish transporter The Real McKay has extended its fleet with six new trailers, equipped with Carrier Transicold Vector 1350 units.

The new mono temperature units are mounted to tri-axle Gray & Adams trailers and join 33 Carrier Transicold-cooled reefers already in service with the operator.

With its lightweight design – weighing 643kg – the Vector 1350 enables hauliers to maximise payload. Each Vector 1350 system is powered by a 1.1-litre engine, which is up to 30% more fuel efficient than its predecessor, the Maxima, and holds approximately one third less refrigerant, thanks to its microchannel condenser coil.

The Real McKay’s latest trailers are expected to cover 150,000km a year and will be in operation seven days a week, transporting full loads of fresh fish across the UK and Europe.
