Phillips Industries Introduces New Combination Single and Dual Pole CHARGE-BOX

&nbsp Phillips Industries Introduces New Combination

Single and Dual Pole CHARGE-BOX™

 

Santa Fe Springs, CA (February 25, 2010)  Phillips Industries has introduced
their new CHARGE-BOX™, a STA-DRY® Nosebox with both single and dual pole charging
sockets. The Phillips CHARGE-BOX™ offers the flexibility many fleets, particularly
leasing fleets, require to provide power to trailers with liftgates, which
commonly have either a single or a dual pole connector.  The Phillips CHARGE-BOX™
is an innovative solution for a fleet that uses tractors with dual and single
pole liftgate cables.  Since the Phillips CHARGE-BOX™ contains both a single
and dual pole socket, the fleet is guaranteed to have the right tractor every
time. The CHARGE-BOX™ was developed by Phillips Industries to provide a solution
that fleet managers need to eliminate the high cost of pairing trucks and trailers
with the correct liftgate or auxiliary power connections.  

 

The STA-DRY® Nosebox has an impact-resistant non-corrosive, nylon housing with
steel reinforced mounting collars.  The single and dual pole sockets with solid
brass pins are enclosed in zinc die-cast housings for durability.  Mounting
holes at each socket location are elongated for adaptability and each socket
lid has a stainless steel hinge pin and spring for long life. 

 

Phillips combination single and dual pole CHARGE-BOX™, (Part No. 16-77712)
can be specified on new trailers or purchased through authorized Phillips distributors.
