Dearman will collaborate with Paneltex, one of Britain’s leading commercial vehicle bodybuilders, to demonstrate the high-performance, zero-emission transport refrigeration unit (TRU) that has been developed in a collaboration between the two companies.
The Dearman system will be found on a Paneltex semi-trailer on the Paneltex stand 3A110 at the upcoming Commercial Vehicle Show 2018, which will be held April 24-26 at the NEC Birmingham.
Focusing on home delivery and urban transport is the theme of the Paneltex stand at this year’s show. Using the groundbreaking liquid nitrogen-powered Dearman Engine, the system offers superior performance, zero emissions and quiet operation.
A TRU powered by a secondary diesel engine can emit up to six times as much nitrogen oxide (NOx) and almost 30 times as much particulate matter (PM) as a Euro 6 heavy goods vehicle engine. However, the Dearman TRU eliminates all emissions of NOx and PM, providing improved air quality, while reducing carbon footprint and noise.
David Rivington, Dearman senior director, said, “Dearman is looking forward to exhibiting our groundbreaking TRU on the Paneltex stand at the CV Show. 21,000 visitors attended last year’s CV Show, and this is a major opportunity for us to show local authorities and fleet operators how we can help them cut their emissions, especially with the increasing need to tackle air pollution.
“Clean systems must deliver performance, be cost-effective and zero-emission,” he said. “That is exactly what the Dearman transport refrigeration unit delivers, and we look forward to showcasing this with Paneltex at Britain’s biggest road transport event.”
