Specifications of Refrigerated Goods Transport

The specifications of reefers used for the transportation of refrigerated goods include:

1. Temperature control: Reefers have the ability to maintain a consistent temperature range, typically between -30°C to +30°C, depending on the specific requirements of the cargo.
2. Humidity control: Reefers are equipped with humidity control systems to maintain the appropriate level of humidity required for the cargo.
3. Air circulation: Reefers have air circulation systems to ensure proper ventilation and prevent the buildup of moisture inside the container.
4. Insulation: Reefers are insulated to maintain the desired temperature range and prevent temperature fluctuations during transportation.
5. Power supply: Reefers require a power supply to operate the temperature control and humidity control systems. They can be powered by the ship’s electrical supply or through an onboard generator.
6. Capacity: Reefer containers come in standard sizes of 20 feet and 40 feet, with a maximum height of 8 feet, 6 inches. The capacity of a reefer container varies depending on the specific model and can range from 28 to 70 cubic meters.
7. Compliance: Reefers used for the transportation of refrigerated goods must comply with international standards and regulations, including those set by the International Maritime Organization (IMO), International Chamber of Shipping (ICS), and International Organization for Standardization (ISO).

Overall, reefers are designed to provide a controlled environment for the transportation of perishable goods, ensuring that they arrive at their destination in optimal condition. The specialized specifications of reefers, including temperature control, humidity control, and air circulation, help to maintain the quality and freshness of the cargo during transportation.
