Parking Air Conditioner: How long can it run when parked – TKT HVAC

What is parking air conditioner? What is parking cooler?

As the name suggests, parking air conditioner refers to an air conditioner that can still run when the vehicle is parked, providing the driver with a comfortable rest environment. It is an electric air conditioner. It runs on the DC power supply of the vehicle battery and regulates and controls the temperature, humidity, flow rate and other parameters of the vehicle environment. According to the voltage of the vehicle battery, it is divided into 12v parking air conditioner and 24v parking air conditioner. It is also known as parking cooler.

Air Conditioner for Truck, RV, Van, etc.

They are usually used on trucks, RVs, vans, agricultural machinery, and construction machinery. The parking AC mainly consists of a condenser, evaporator, electronic control system, compressor, fan and piping system. In addition, because the roof conditions of different commercial vehicles are different. Therefore, they are divided into rooftop air conditioner and split air conditioner according to the installation location.

How long does a parking air conditioner last approximately when it is parked?

Concept

The calculation of this involves some electrical knowledge. Let me first briefly introduce the basic concepts.
Battery capacity (Ah): The amount of current provided by the battery in 1 hour.
Battery energy (Wh): The total energy that the battery can provide, calculation formula: battery energy = battery capacity * battery voltage.
Power (W): The rate at which work is completed or energy is transferred per unit time. Calculation formula: Power = Current * Voltage.
Therefore, the running time of the parking air conditioner is calculated by: time = (battery capacity * battery voltage) / air conditioner power.

Calculate 

Now we start to calculate the usage time of TKT truck parking air conditioner. Taking our hot selling air conditioner as an example, the maximum compressor power is 860w, the evaporator is 144w, and the condensing fan is 120w. The highest total power is 1124w. The diesel heavy truck batteries I learned are usually 24v, 200ah. Suppose we take this as an example, (200*24)/1124=4.27. It’s about 4 hours and 18 minutes. This is the running time under the highest load condition. TKT HVAC parking air conditioner is a variable frequency air conditioner with smart energy saving function. Therefore, the actual usage time is much longer than this time.
If you want to ensure 8 hours of use time a night, I have 2 suggestions. Option 1: Reduce the wind speed, select a reasonable air conditioner temperature, reduce the operating power of the air conditioner, and extend the operating time. Option 2, add an battery.
