Refrigerated containers (refrigerated)

Refrigerated containers or reefer containers – a container with a body made of heat-insulated polyurethane foam, equipped with a refrigeration unit that maintains the temperature inside the refrigerated containers in the range from -25 ° C to +25 ° C.To date, the most well-known manufacturers of refrigerated containers are several companies:

Carrier Transicold Ltd – refrigerated brand CARRIER;

Thermoking Corporation – refrigerated brand THERMOKING;

The construction of refrigerated containers

Refrigerated container has two basic building blocks : a housing unit and refrigerator . Refrigerated containers housing consists of a carrier frame and polyurethane foam sandwich panels with an outer coating of duralumin sheet (thickness – 2.0 mm ) and the inner surface of the sheet- shaped food-grade stainless steel ( thickness – 0.6 mm). Paul refrigerated containers made ​​of aluminum T-shaped profile with the strength , designed for use in the treatment of ordinary goods warehouse truck.

Doors are made of the same as the body of polyurethane sandwich paneneley and fitted with special locks, allowing hermetically sealed container cargo bay .

Refrigeration unit disposed in the housing end supports automatically in the container in a predetermined temperature range from +25 ° C to -25 ° C and supplied from a 3-phase electrical supply 360/460V and 50 Hz.

The electronic control unit allows you to install and maintain in automatic mode: temperature, humidity, set the frequency of the defrost cycle, control the operation of the basic units and fix their failure or malfunction. Currently refrigerated container units basically operate with refrigerant (“refrigerant”) “R-134A”, “R-409A”, “R-401A”.
