Abstract: A mobile environment-controlled unit, such as an over-the-road compartment trailer, having an environmental-control system, such as a refrigeration unit, powered by an alternator and having a high-voltage alternating current (AC) bus. The unit incorporates a high resistance ground scheme and can incorporate a solid-state input module to detect phase-chassis faults. This combination provides an improvement in protection for mobile applications that cannot have a voltage reference (or neutral point) solidly connected to earth ground.

Abstract: Methods and systems for feedback-based load control of a climate control system while in transport are provided. The method can include monitoring a current demand from each of a plurality of DC components of the climate control system. The method can also include determining whether the current demand for two or more of the plurality of DC components is in a discontinuous DC format. Also, the method can include, when two or more of the plurality of DC components is in the discontinuous DC format, determining a synchronization pattern for supplying power to the two or more of the plurality of DC components. Further, the method can include a DC power source of the climate control system directing power to the two or more of the plurality of DC components in the discontinuous DC format based on the synchronization pattern.

Abstract: A transport refrigeration unit (TRU) battery charging system includes a programmable transport refrigeration system (TRS) Controller, a TRU battery and a programmable battery charger (BC) programmed to transfer electrical current to the TRU battery via a predetermined current path through the programmable TRS Controller in response to a value of offset current drawn from the TRU battery by the programmable TRS Controller and subsequently communicated to the programmable BC by the programmable TRS Controller. The programmable TRU battery charger allows for a dynamic load characterization of the programmable IRS Controller and accessory loads based on programmable TRU battery charger internal shunt current measurements and programmable TRS Controller internal shunt current measurements to allow the programmable TRU battery charger to function properly with all intended modes of operation.
