To ensure your refrigerated shipping container will keep performing at its optimum state, please use the below guidelines.
It is important to place your refrigerated container in a position that it can get adequate air flow atleast one metre from any wall. Ideally, place your refrigerated container out of direct sunlight.
Connect your refrigerated container to a 32amp, 415V power outlet then tighten the locking ring. Take note that a 20amp outlet may not be suitable under extreme conditions.
Your refrigerated shipping container will approximately use 18amps on start up and continue use 8amps whilst running.
Hose down or air clean the condenser on a monthly basis to ensure it’s fins are clean. If the fins are not maintained it will reduce performance, increase power usage and the refrigerated container will eventually stop functioning if not looked after.
Is is important to monitor the refrigerated shipping container’s digital readout. ECC can fit dial thermometre in a prominent position if need be.
For Hard Frozen Operation load frozen products only. Do not load products at ambiant temperatures. Make sure that the refrigerated container is not loaded above the ‘red line limit’ shown inside the container. For safety reasons, switch your refrigerated container off before entering. Install plastic stip curtain in the entry way if regular entry is required. This will reduce the temperature from rising. At temperature below 10 o, the refrigerated container will self regulate to maintain your set temperature.
