Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

• The Fransen Group UK, of Kiddeminster, has taken delivery of the first new Bonallack high-volume, 26 metric pallet capacity, refrigerated semi-trailer built to the latest C and U regulations, in a contract rental deal with Trailerent.

The Maxi, 26 Coldsaver 3000 reefer offers a 21% increase in cubic capacity over earlier models and includes a number of special features. Powerful airflow through internal ducting is provided by a D298 Halo remote evaporator, linked to a Fetter underslung refrigerated unit.

This system, combined with a 6x2 Daf tractive unit fitted with a top-mounted sleeper pod, provides the extra space needed to handle 26 metric pallets within a 15.5metre overall length.

A low-profile fifth wheel coupling and a shallow trailer swan neck also allows the trailer's internal height to be increased yet stay within the 4 metre legal maximum.

The top sleeper Daf tractive unit couples up easily to the Maxi 26 Coldsaver 3000, which has a deep king pin position, with two alternative settings for when coupling up with other tractors.

The new BonaHack reefer is based on an M&G triaxle chassis with air suspension, L3 metre axle spacing and a lifting axle.

Body side walls and roof are produced by Bonallack using the company's own injected polyurethane composite panel design. The reefer carries an ATP class C certification.
