What sort of unit is the Elinge C4?

A monoblock engine-driven refrigeration unit: the condenser sits above the cab, the evaporator under the body roof. By volume the C4 covers bodies up to 20 m³ at −20 °C and up to 30 m³ at 0 °C, which is why it goes on medium-tonnage trucks. The full range is on the Elinge page.

How this body is built

The vehicle is built on a JAC N75, assembled in Kazakhstan by Allur chassis. The engine is Cummins ISF3.8, diesel. Gross weight 7,490 kg, so the driver needs a category C licence.

Body type — refrigerated body, sandwich panel.

The interior lining is galvanised sheet. Doors: hinged rear, a folding ladder.

The refrigeration unit is Elinge C4 — cooling and heating. Operating range: down to −20 °C. Fitted equipment: body lighting, a chequer-plate aluminium kerb along the bottom of the walls, an aluminium side guard, mudflaps.

Why it is built this way

Walls and ceiling are lined with galvanised sheet — the factory standard for a van body: it shrugs off moisture, takes a pallet-corner knock and is replaced in sections rather than whole panels.

Who it suits

A body with a refrigeration unit carries anything perishable: meat and fish, dairy, ready meals, flowers, medicines. The unit holds the set temperature while parked too, so the truck also suits distribution runs with long stops.

We will build the same — to your size and your chassis

This body is not a catalogue item but a project we actually built. We will make the same one to your dimensions: length, width and height are calculated for your cargo and the chassis payload, rather than fitting the cargo to a ready-made size.

We also fit it to your own chassis: bring the vehicle, we take the frame dimensions, build the body, mount it and hand it over with the conversion paperwork.

If you are still choosing a chassis, we have the same body on other bases as well: Chevrolet Labo, DongFeng C31, FAW 1027, GAZelle Business 3302. They differ in payload, frame length and licence category.

FAQ

FAQ about the JAC N75 reefer

Yes, but the chassis will go by a different name. The JAC N75, N80 and N90 are one platform whose permitted gross weight rose step by step: 7,490 kg on the N75, 7,950 kg on the N80 and 9,030 kg on today’s N90. The engine and the body mounting points are the same, so the body carries over exactly.

A monoblock, engine-driven refrigeration unit: the condenser above the cab, the evaporator under the body roof. By volume the C4 covers a body of up to 20 m³ at −20 °C and up to 30 m³ at 0 °C, which is why it goes on medium-duty trucks. The whole range is on the page Elinge.

So the driver can see the duty without leaving the cab or opening the body doors. On long-haul runs that is the only way to notice the unit has drifted out of its duty before the cargo spoils. We mount the panel on the dashboard next to the climate controls.

A folding ladder: stowed it sits flush against the rear bar, deployed it lets you step into the body without a ramp. On a medium-duty truck the body floor is high, and at sites with no dock a loader would otherwise have to pull themselves up by hand.

Category C: the gross weight is 7,490 kg, already past the 3,500 kg threshold. If you have no category C drivers, look at our projects on light chassis — light trucks run on a category B licence.

The price is made up of the body and the unit. The unit is quoted from the Elinge price list, the body from its configuration: length, panel thickness, doors, interior fit-out. Leave a request or write on WhatsApp and we will send a quote. COND does not publish prices for bodies.

COND is a factory with its own WMI manufacturer code, so we issue the full set of conversion paperwork and the entry in the vehicle passport.
