Groupes monoblocs amovibles. Cette forme d’équipement a entre autres avantages celui de n’ exiger aucun travail de montage frigorifique sur le véhicule; l'ensemble monté en usine se fixe sur le camion, à la partie supérieure avant, au-dessus de la cabine du conducteur. Cette fixation se fait par boulonnage rapide et facile. [...] Les groupes monoblocs existent sous de nombreux modèles différents permettant la réfrigération de petits camions de distribution jusqu'à celle de remorques et de semi-remorques constituant de véritables chambres froides mobiles. 1, record 2, French, - groupe%20monobloc%20amovible
