Description

Overview

The Thermo King SLX SLXe SLXi expansion tank replaces the coolant reservoir on compatible trailer refrigeration units in the SLX family. It stores coolant within the engine cooling circuit and lets operators check level and condition during routine service. Because cooling system reliability matters on temperature-controlled fleets, this replacement tank gives workshops a direct way to restore a damaged or ageing reservoir.

Features

• Plastic coolant reservoir for SLX, SLXe and SLXi applications
• Supports routine coolant checks and service access
• Suits front-mounted trailer refrigeration unit layouts
• Replaces worn or cracked tanks on the listed series

Specifications and Materials

This Thermo King SLX SLXe SLXi expansion tank uses a plastic reservoir body for the engine cooling system on the SLX, SLXe and SLXi unit range. It suits SLX, SLXe and SLXi applications, and the SLXi platform uses a water-cooled engine and a coolant expansion tank as part of normal servicing. Part number: TK-12-1028-AM.

Compliance and Safety

Always let the unit cool before service work, because the expansion tank cap should not be removed while coolant remains hot. Use the correct coolant type and follow the service procedure for the unit specification. Also inspect the tank body, hose connections and cap sealing area before you return the unit to service. If heat has damaged the original tank or cracks have formed, replace it early so coolant loss does not create bigger cooling system problems.

Trailer Applications

The Thermo King SLX SLXe SLXi expansion tank suits fleets that run front-mounted trailer refrigeration units across the listed series. It fits refrigerated trailers used for food, produce, chilled freight and other temperature-sensitive loads. It also helps workshops complete cooling system repairs when a damaged reservoir prevents reliable servicing or steady coolant control.
