What is difference of reefer and tractor fuel?

Reefer fuel is specifically used to power refrigeration units on trucks and trailers that transport perishable goods, ensuring they remain at the required temperature during transit. Tractor fuel, on the other hand, refers to the diesel used to power the truck's engine for driving. While both types of fuel are essential for the transportation of goods, they serve different functions within the logistics process. Additionally, reefer fuel often has specific formulations and regulations to meet environmental and efficiency standards.


How much fuel does a reefer use per hour?

The fuel consumption of a refrigerated truck, also known as a reefer, can vary depending on several factors such as the size and age of the vehicle, the type of refrigeration unit used, and the operating conditions. As a rough estimate, a typical refrigerated truck with a diesel-powered refrigeration unit may use around 1-2 gallons of fuel per hour while the refrigeration unit is running. It's also worth noting that when the reefer is not running and the cargo is being transported at ambient temperature, the fuel consumption will be similar to that of a regular truck.

Do the dual fuel tanks on a 2011 Freightliner Business Class still work simultaneously as before or is one of those tanks for the reefer on refrigerated models?

Both of those fuel tanks are for the power unit. Rest assured of that. The reefer units will have a separate fuel tank for that unit, typically located under the chassis behind the cab. Don't be fooled by the lack of a crossover between the two fuel tanks - the crossover system is obsolete, and no longer used. Both of those tanks feed the engine, still.
