Refrigerated Trailer Tracking

Refrigerated trailer tracking includes electronics and sensor technology installed on a reefer trailer, which facilitates the remote monitoring and control of temperature sensitive products and assets. The Par trailer tracking system use Global Positioning System (GPS) modules for precise location of the trailers while combining a communications module such as satellite or cellular transmitters to communicate the location temperature, and other critical data to fleet managers and other interested parties. Data becomes information as refrigerated trailer status, health, and location, information becomes readily accessible via the internet.

Par LMS' refrigerated trailer tracking system provides essential real-time information about refrigerated trailers' status, location, temperature, fuel levels, battery and history. The owner of the vehicle, or any responsible third party cold chain stakeholder, utilizes this information to provide the most reliable and protected services to shippers and consumers of perishable commodities. The Par LMS solution is 100 percent compatible with both Thermo King® and Carrier® brand refrigeration units.

Critical reefer alarms, excessive dwell and low fuel alerts are automatically generated and transmitted as "alert messages" to manager's e-mail and cellular text message accounts in real time. Such pro-active management of refrigeration assets allows transportation managers to react and respond to issues before they become problems.

One of the highlights of Par LMS' refrigerated tracking trailer system is the recording and management of refrigeration unit temperatures including trailer's set points, supply temperatures, return temperatures and ambient temperatures.

Par's back office systems system independently monitors fleets of refrigeration units for unacceptable temperature variances, fuel shortages, low battery levels, excessive dwell, abuse, and hundreds of other fault codes. Serious fault codes and unacceptable usage are automatically reported to management via e-mail and text message alerts as well as posted on fleet web pages.

Par LMS' tracking solutions deliver a high return-on-investment (ROI) in a very short time period by providing clients with critical visibility and control of their fleet assets, while simultaneously giving them the flexibility to rapidly deploy new assets and distribution strategies. Information is power, and the Par systems provide the most important information to the appropriate people in the timeliest manner.
