When customers choose refrigerated trucks, after inquiring about the chassis, they will ask about what kind of refrigeration units the configuration has. Selecting a refrigeration unit is an important part of purchasing a refrigerated truck. Now let’s learn about refrigeration units together.
- Classification of refrigeration units by place of production: Refrigeration units can be divided into imported refrigeration units and domestic refrigeration units. Imported refrigeration units generally include Thermo King from the United States, Carrier from the United States, Hanil from South Korea, etc. Commonly used domestic refrigeration units are generally Shanghai Super Cool, Guangdong K Brand, Zhengzhou Kaixue, Xiangyang Hanxue, Beijing Ice Source, Xinxiang Huatai, etc.
- Refrigerated truck refrigeration units are classified according to power sources: they can be divided into independent refrigeration units and non-independent refrigeration units.
Teach you how to choose a refrigeration unit for a refrigerated truck
Independent chillers have their own independent power source, while non-independent chillers use the power of the vehicle to brake refrigeration; that is to say, independent chillers can still work when the vehicle is turned off to ensure the low temperature in the compartment. Non-independent chillers will not work. When the vehicle is turned off, the chillers will also stop working, causing the temperature in the compartment to rise and causing the goods in the compartment to deteriorate. The choice of independent chillers or non-independent chillers depends first on the size of the chassis selected. Independent chillers are large in size and require a certain amount of installation space. They are suitable for installation on large refrigerated trucks. Non-independent chillers are small in size and are installed outside the compartment, close to the cab, without taking up space. In addition, it is necessary to choose a refrigerator for the distance of transportation. Generally, a non-independent refrigerator is used for short-distance transportation, and a non-independent refrigerator is used for long-distance transportation. - Refrigerated truck refrigeration units are divided into two types: fresh-keeping units and refrigeration units according to customer needs.
The fresh-keeping unit is suitable for the type of refrigerated truck freight: vegetables, fruits, medicines, fresh seafood, tobacco, etc. The temperature is between 2-15 degrees; the refrigerated unit is suitable for the type of refrigerated truck freight: frozen meat, ice cream, frozen dumplings, frozen seafood, fresh meat, etc. The temperature is between 0-18 degrees. The correct choice of refrigerated truck refrigeration unit can ensure the cost of the refrigerated truck, ensure the quality of the goods transported, and will not lose greater benefits due to the choice of refrigeration unit.
