Характеристики контейнеров

Рефрижераторные контейнер (Рефконтейнеры, Reefers)

Это контейнеры с термоизолированным корпусом, оборудованные рефрижераторной установкой, которая поддерживает внутри рефконтейнера температуру в диапазоне от -25°С до +25°С. Они предназначены для перевозки и (или) хранения грузов с определённым температурным режимом, например, для скоропортящихся грузов. Некоторые рефу модели ThermoKing могут достигать низкую температуру от -35°C.
Наша компания RS Container Group предлагает рефконтейнеры основных производителей — Carrier, Thermo King, Starcool, Daikin. На наш взгляд в настоящее время в основном используются именно эти типы рефрижераторной техники. Года выпуска могут быть в диапазоне 2002-2020.
У каждого производителя есть свой модельный ряд, в основном обусловленный годом выпуска и имеющий определенные преимущества или акценты.
Основные модели с которыми мы работаем:

Carrier
Carrier has a long 30 year history and a lot of experience. They are reliable and offered in several modification. Normally it`s spare parts are mostly available and easy to find original and produced by alternative producers. Of course, the older model is, the more and cheaper spare parts can be found.
With years and improvement in technology Carrier present new models, features and machinery look. New compressor types are extremely productive but almost impossible to repair and must be changed in full, comparing to the older models. Carriers are good for static use and transportation.
Prices for this machinery are normally always higher, comparing to other producers.

Thermo King
Thermo King models are widely used and has relatively low repair costs. They are relatively resistant to the constant power fluctuations. Some models can produce low temperatures (declared range is -30/+30), partly due to the type of gas they are using and machinery in newer models. Special models can go even down till -60 degrees, but of course they are not cheap. We would recommend to use older models of Thermo King for static work, not transportation, especially railway.

Daikin
Reefer containers, equipped with Daikin machinery are relatively not expensive. The same refers to the spare parts which together with their durability make Daikin highly attractive. Defrosting process in Daikin models is made using hot gas, this system allows to limit extra heat from outside to the camera and reduces defrosting time. Newer Daikin model (ZESTIA) has completely new engine and some “interesting” unique features. We would not recommend to use this models for transportation of commodities which require positive temperatures, especially in the winter period, with low outside temperatures. This is a drawback of hot gas defrosting system. Daikin has promised to fix this problem in nearest future.

Starcool
Starcool is the “youngest” producer among these four. Company producing Starcool containers is the daughter company of globally largest reefer container carrier Maersk Line.
Starcool models are extremely economical, saving around (50% of energy) due to the special construction of compressors. Processors are simple and easy to use. Wide range of features and controllers, allowing to carry different types of products – flowers, fruits and vegetables.
Price is very competitive.
There is no really known problems with this machinery, may be except not very large spare part availability. We have heard about some problems with compressor frequency controller.

Main types of compressors used in modern reefer containers.
Reciprocating compressors or piston compressors – this type of compressor work much like an internal combustion engine. Of course there were no combustion stage as in the case of vehicle engines. In case of piston compressors, they are loud and create considerable vibration. However these compressors can be fully dissembled, repaired in case of need, assembled and ready for work again. Scroll compressors-these compressors are energy efficient and lightweight. Scroll compressors use one fixed and one moving scrolls, coupled to the motor. These type of compressors produces less noise and almost no vibration but in case of damage, which does not happen very often, has to be replaced fully, no repairs can be made.

Дженсеты (GenSet, генераторная установка)

Дженсет — это мобильный (обычно – дизельный) генератор электричества для рефрижераторного контейнера. Использование дженсета позволяет перевозить или хранить реф-контейнеры при отсутствии постоянного источника электропитания. Как правило, дженсеты используются при перевозках на автомобильных и железнодорожных платформах.

Контейнерный дизель-генератор предназначен для бесперебойной подачи электропитания на рефрижераторный или танк-контейнер при перевозке его автомобильным или железно-дорожным транспортом. Он представляет из себя два смонтированных в единое целое агрегата — дизельный двигатель (с собственным топливным баком и системой охлаждения) и электрогенератор (выдающий необходимые для контейнеров 460 В).

Специальные контейнеры (Open Top, Hard Top, Flat Rack, Platform,Bulk, Ventilated)

Специальные контейнеры предназначены для перевозки и хранения нестандартных грузов по размеру, весу и способам погрузки и хранения.
