- Complete with the Schmitz Cargobull S.CU d80 cooling unit
- With space for 36 roller containers or 22 Euro pallets
- With TrailerConnect® trailer telematics as a standard
June 2024 – The single-axle S.KO CITY refrigerated box body semi-trailer is especially suited to town centres and urban areas. It has space for 36 roller containers or 22 Euro pallets, regardless of whether it is being used to transport fresh or frozen goods. Its mechanical forced steering system delivers greater manoeuvrability and less tyre wear. It has flexible uses, thanks to its low overall height, with an internal height of 2,250 mm. Equipped with the Schmitz Cargobull S.CU d80 cooling unit with its proven, robust and emission-optimised diesel engine, it is ideal for inner-city food distribution. This transport of different products is characterised by frequent loading and unloading operations and driving in a busy urban environment. Like all Schmitz Cargobull vehicles, the S.KO CITY is fitted with the TrailerConnect® trailer telematics system as a standard.
Within the Schmitz Cargobull cooling unit range, the S.CU d80 transport cooling unit is designed for the volume market. With its proven and durable 4-cylinder diesel engine technology, providing up to 14,000 watts of cooling, or 10,500 watts of heating capacity. It can be used in all markets, especially in countries with interior-quality diesel fuel. Fuel consumption is reduced, thanks to the variable speed control of its diesel engine. Its microchannel condenser ensures greater reliability at high outside temperatures, short defrosting cycles, and high heating capacity for fast defrosting. Another important feature is its compliance with the strict noise emission regulations that apply in residential areas. Its standard Silence Kit makes it the quietest transport cooling unit on the market today (94.9 dBA) and significantly reduces loading and unloading noise emissions during the night and morning hours. The S.CU d80 is available as a MonoTemp version.
Advantages in many respects
The S.KO CITY with its proven FERROPLAST body is primarily used in food logistics. Flexible equipment packages give transport firms the chance to adapt the trailer to their transport and logistics needs. Its optimised airline floor is non-slip, easy to clean, and complies with hygiene standards. The body itself features vertical telescopic beams over its entire length, which can be quickly and simply fixed in the airline floor to secure loads. High scuff rails protect the interior, while LED interior lighting improves visibility and working conditions. Temperature conditions remain constant, thanks to the three-part insulated sliding curtains in the cargo area. A 2.5-t standard tail lift completes the list of fitted equipment, ensuring improved reliability and lifting efficiency.
S.KO CITY semi-trailers are equipped with dynamic ramp protection, which ideally protects the vehicle from damage when the trailer is reversed onto a ramp. At the same time, stainless steel roller bumpers compensate for the change of height of the trailer when it is approached by a forklift.
The design of the central electrical box has also been updated, making all electrical connections easily accessible. All electrical connections with full documentation are thus located in one place when retrofitting new electrical options and functions. This simplifies the process.
The S.KO CITY provides many options that contribute toward enhanced safety. They include a reversing camera and a working spotlight on the upper edge of the rear frame. There are also two LED reversing lights and additional safety lamps at the rear. Flashing side marker lights are also attached on the right and left of the vehicle. Snow and ice sheet profiles on the roof, with a V-shaped rain deflecting strip, protect the cargo and other road users, while the acoustic warning system reduces the risk of accidents when reversing.
