1 / 12Phoenix Ultra XL Trailer Refrigeration Units
The Carrier Phoenix Ultra XL runs a fuel-efficient 2.2-liter direct-injection diesel engine (CT4-134DI) with the longest factory oil change intervals in the industry.
Full Description
This is a used Carrier Transicold Phoenix Ultra XL trailer refrigeration unit, part of Carrier's Ultra platform. Typical units in this condition run in the 5,000-8,000 hour range; units are inspected before sale and run and cool properly. Installation is available and can include fresh engine service, new belts, a new battery, and a 6-month warranty. Doors are fitted to the unit but are removed during transport. Forklift loading is available at pickup. Ultra XL is built around Carrier's most fuel-efficient engine option in the platform: the 2.2-liter, direct-injection CT4-134DI, a low-friction design with the longest factory-approved oil-change intervals in the industry — extended to 4,000 hours on synthetic oil. The unit pairs this engine with Carrier's 05G compressor — a 40-CID, 6-cylinder design with PosiLube oil-pressure protection for full lubrication even in subzero temperatures, and dual-ringed pistons to reduce blowby and maintain efficiency over time. Airflow is rated at 3,350 CFM with balanced distribution. UltraFresh 2 capacity and temperature control comes standard, holding cargo within about 2°F of setpoint at setpoints above 10°F. The exterior uses DuraShell composite skins and doors, a lightweight material that resists rust, denting, warping, fading, and peeling. A microprocessor controller runs fully automated diagnostic pretrips and is sealed with O-rings and dip-coated boards for water resistance. Automatic Start/Stop cuts fuel consumption by up to 75% by running the engine only as needed to hold cargo temperature, and the DuraDrive belt-drive system allows one-step belt replacement with up to 50% longer belt life than conventional systems. The unit can run on either HCFC R-22 or HFC R-404A refrigerant.

Common Questions
How does the deposit and reservation process work?
A refundable deposit of up to $1,000 (or the item's full price if it's lower) holds this unit and locks the quoted price for 48–72 hours while we confirm availability and arrange delivery. If your order doesn't move forward, the deposit is fully refunded.
Do you deliver, and does it cost extra?
Yes, we deliver nationwide. Delivery is coordinated after reservation and quoted based on your location and the unit's size, so it isn't included in the listed price.
What's your return policy?
Returns are accepted within 7 days of delivery. Return shipping and any related costs are the customer's responsibility.
Can I write this purchase off as a business expense?
Businesses may qualify to deduct the full purchase price in the year it's placed in service under Section 179, rather than depreciating it over several years. Rules and limits vary, so this isn't tax advice — talk to your accountant about your specific situation.
