Abstract
A refrigerant evaporator assembly suitable for remote mounting to a ceiling of a trailer compartment having a served space to be conditioned. The evaporator assembly is modular, including an evaporator module, a cover module, and an evaporator blower module. The evaporator and cover modules cooperatively define a tubular housing having first and second open ends, with the blower module removably closing the second open end. A grille covers the first open end. The evaporator module includes a base member which functions as a support base for the evaporator module during assembly of the module and as a drain pan in the refrigerant evaporator assembly. The cover module functions as a support base for the evaporator coil when the evaporator assembly is mounted to the ceiling of a trailer compartment.
