ABSTRACT:
An evaporator for a transport refrigeration system configured to be mounted in a conditioned space and having a downwardly facing intake and an air discharge end adapted to discharge conditioned air horizontally. The evaporator includes a structural frame for mounting the unit. The structural frame includes first and second lateral supports extending on opposite sides of the evaporator and at least one horizontal transverse member interconnecting the lateral supports. The evaporator fan is structurally supported by the transverse member at a location in fluid flow communication with the air intake. The evaporator coil extends between the lateral supports intermediate the air discharge end and the location of the evaporator fan. The lateral supports serve as tube sheets of the heat exchanger. An outer cover for the evaporator includes a bottom portion configured to underlie all portions of the heat exchange coil and refrigeration circuit and includes an opening in fluid flow communication with the evaporator fan. The bottom portion further includes a front edge, which defines the lower portion of the air discharge opening and a rear edge which cooperates with a wall of the conditioned space to partially define the back of the evaporator. A pair of side covers are configured to be installed on right and left sides of the evaporator to enclose portions of the refrigeration circuit that extend outwardly from the lateral supports. The configuration of the bottom portion of the cover allows it to collect and dispose of all condensate from the coil and components of the refrigeration circuit.
