In the hot summer, the temperature in the cab of a truck can usually reach 40°C to 50°C. During the driving process, it is good to say that once the vehicle is turned off and the air conditioner is turned off, the cab instantly becomes a steam room. Parking air conditioners have gradually become a rigid demand product for truck drivers.
How to avoid illegal modification when installing parking air conditioner?
At present, the parking air conditioner industry is still in the early stage of development, and the parking air conditioner is not a necessary part of the vehicle, so the proportion of vehicles installed before leaving the factory is extremely low. 90% of parking air conditioners are installed at the request of the user after the vehicle enters the circulation link. In our country, there are strict requirements for vehicle modification. How to avoid illegal modification when the truck is equipped with parking air conditioner?
First of all, do not install ordinary household air conditioners on the truck. Although the price of installing ordinary household air conditioners is cheap, this kind of air conditioner has the risk of spontaneous combustion due to the circuit load, and it is mostly prohibited by the traffic control department. In reality, there are basically two types of external air conditioners for trucks that are recognized by the traffic control department and have low safety risks: one is dedicated on-board air conditioners. Generally, low-profile trucks without air conditioners are reserved for additional air conditioners when they leave the factory. After purchasing a low-profile version of the truck, you can ask a professional manufacturer to install a special on-board air conditioner for the truck. The second is an independent air conditioner. This kind of air conditioner comes with an engine, a generator or an energy storage device. It does not need a truck to provide power when it is running. The air conditioner can also work normally when the truck engine is turned off.
At the same time, when installing a parking air conditioner on a truck, it must be noted that the air conditioner installed cannot affect the safety of the vehicle, block the driver’s line of sight, and weaken the structural strength of the body. Before installing air-conditioning on the vehicle, it is best to go to the local vehicle management office to register and file to ensure the legality of the installation.
What should I do if the battery power is insufficient when the parking air conditioner is installed?
The parking air conditioner is powered by a battery, even if it is parked for a long time, it will not affect the use, which solves the problem of high temperature in summer. In addition to the parking air conditioner, the battery must also meet the requirements of the truck engine to start, and take into account the power supply of various household appliances in the truck. A parking air conditioner battery with a large capacity and a large amount of stored power is a necessary product to meet the electricity demand of on-board electrical equipment.
Ordinary or low-quality truck batteries will gradually age after being used for a period of time. There may be problems such as virtual power, high voltage, and low power, which may cause the vehicle to fail to find a fire. Therefore, the installed parking air conditioner must have an undervoltage protection function. When the battery is detected to be out of power, it can be intelligently powered off to ensure that the vehicle starts and runs normally.
