| REEFER SERVICE |
|
 |
Good Operating Practices ensure products maintained and delivered in optimum |
| condition. |
|
Good Packaging is important for protection of products. |
|
Use Solid-Side Packaging for Frozen products and Vented-Side Packaging for |
| Fresh products. |
|
Packaging must be crushproof. |
|
Ensure electric socket matches with the reefer plug(380v). |
|
Close the door, set thermostat to desired temperature. |
|
Precool container for 1.5 hours to remove residual heat. |
|
Turn unit OFF while loading. |
|
Load quickly and efficiently. |
|
Close the door, turn unit ON after loading. |
|
Products must be precooled to desired temperature in cooling storehouse. |
|
Check product temperature during loading. |
|
Reefers are designed to maintain product temperature, not lower it. |
|
Poor Air Distribution is one of primary causes of product deterioration, even |
| when unit capacity is more than adequate. |
|
Obstructions anywhere around load can result in product "Hot Spots". |
|
Proper Air Circulation demands unobstructed paths on all six sides of the load. |
|
Cargo must be stacked on double-faced block pallets. |
|
Do not use plastic wrap on fresh produce pallets - it prevents air circulation |
| reaching the load. |
|
Do not obstruct T-floor under the load. |
|
Do not load products in front of the evaporator outlets - this will block the |
| airflow. |
|
Blocking the load results in insufficient airflow. |
|
Do not load products to exceed the height limit(red line). |
|
Inside of the container must be clean. |
|
T-Floor must be free of shrink wrap and paper debris. |
|
Debris can either block air circulation or be sucked into evaporator . |
|
Turn unit OFF while doors are open. |
|
Keep "door open" duration to a minimum . |
|
