Platal – other models: the collective page of semi-trailers outside the named ranges, refrigerated and tank bodies of the Link range, gross vehicle weight from 1.25 to 44 t, lengths up to 13.7 m

This page gathers the Platal semi-trailers the register could not assign to a named range. Several model names point to refrigerated and tank bodies: KRK-LINK and KUEHL-LINK carry the German word for cooling in their name, FRACTANK points to a tank body, and alongside these stand the plain designation Link, TSE-LINK and the types CSL40, SP24/12,0EL, ST34ZL and TPA18/6.2 under the collective term Mobilsysteme.

The register lists 12 versions here with kerb weights from 860 to 30,000 kg, gross vehicle weights from 1,250 to 44,000 kg, lengths from 7,700 to 13,700 mm and widths from 2,330 to 2,600 mm.

With gross weights up to 44 t and a focus on refrigerated and tank bodies, this collective page is dominated by semi-trailers for temperature-controlled and liquid goods, as used in food and tanker haulage, alongside lighter mobile-system trailers. Loaders value the shared platform, on which refrigerated, tank and dry-freight bodies can be combined with the same chassis.

Buying used, refrigerated semi-trailers call for a check of the insulation's tightness, the condition of the refrigeration unit and door seals; tank bodies need the internal coating, valves and inspection seals checked; every model needs the frame and axle units checked for corrosion, plus the brake system and air suspension. Spare parts run through the specialist trade for refrigerated and tanker vehicles.

What to check before buying

  • Search the frame and welds at the axle mounts — that is where cracks start.
  • Check the brakes and the last inspection in the papers.
  • Work the gross weight against the towing vehicle before buying.
  • Compare the chassis number with the papers.
  • Look at the floor, cover or body from the inside — rust does not show from outside.
