ATTENTION! ATTENTION! This is the lates news on CARB!
Precedent S-Series units are evergreen CARB compliant, requiring no DPF or additional emissions system, now or in the future.
“Currently, the Thermo King Precedent S-Series models meet ULETRU, which include the S-600 and S-600M.”

Did you know?
According to CARB's ruling, Carrier's EES/DPF system (required for CARB compliance) cannot be installed on units that consume lubricating oil at a rate greater than one quart per 200 hours of engine operation. Additionally, the engine must also operate on fuel with a sulfur content of no more than 15 parts per million by weight, and no lubrication oil or other oil may be mixed with the fuel.
Can your business afford to take that kind of risk?
Trailer TRU owners that wish to avoid the cost of compliance with the in-use standards at a later date may want to consider new TRU models that meet ULETRU. ARB now lists the TRU models that meet the ULETRU in-use standard on the TRU Website (see link below).

CARB Trailer Requirements
The basic features of the Regulation include:
- Compliance schedule – The Regulation is effective in 2010 and features a progressive compliance schedule that differs between small and large fleets and between new and existing equipment.
- Standards – CARB modeled the Regulation after the voluntary standards of SmartWay. With respect to trailer aerodynamics, the regulation requires that 53' trailers must be equipped with aerodynamic technologies that have been verified under SmartWay to increase fuel efficiency by at least 5%, for dry vans, or 4%, for reefers.
- Exemptions – The Regulation includes exemptions, notably for short-haul vehicles and non-box-type trailers.
- Early compliance – Fleets that achieve compliance ahead of schedule receive credit toward compliance in later years. Fleets in early compliance also accelerate the benefits of fuel savings.
