Working refrigerated units run at 50-60 Hz and require three-phase power supply that’s suitable for 440/460 volts. If the Reefer site does not have the required voltage, we can provide transformers for an additional cost that can increase the 3-phase power voltage from 220/240 volts to 440/460 volts. Keep in mind that customers are responsible for grounding the power supply and providing a circuit breaker of 30 amp prior to use.

What is non-working refrigerated container?
A non-working reefer refers to a refrigerated container or transport unit that is not functioning properly or has stopped cooling. It typically indicates a failure in the refrigeration system, resulting in the inability to maintain the desired temperature for perishable goods. While it may not actively cool or provide temperature control, a non-working reefer can still serve as an insulated storage solution, offering a secure environment with insulation to protect items from temperature variations. Additional heating elements, such as an electric space heater, may be used to help maintain the internal temperature if necessary.

A refrigerated shipping container is commonly referred to as a “reefer container.” The term “reefer” is derived from the word “refrigerated” and has become a widely used industry term for containers designed to transport temperature-sensitive cargo.
A reefer shipping container is a specially designed container used for transporting perishable goods that require temperature regulation. It is equipped with a built-in refrigeration unit to maintain the desired temperature throughout the shipping process. Reefer containers are essential for preserving the freshness and quality of products like food and pharmaceuticals during transportation.
Refrigerated shipping containers, also known as reefer containers, work by utilizing a refrigeration unit attached to the container. The unit is powered either by a generator or by connecting to a power source on the ship. It fills the container with chilled air, which circulates to maintain the desired temperature for preserving perishable and temperature-sensitive cargo during transportation.
Refrigerated containers offer several benefits in shipping. They enable the transportation of perishable goods like food, pharmaceuticals, and chemicals, ensuring they remain fresh and uncontaminated. These containers provide temperature control, protecting cargo from spoilage, deterioration, and damage due to extreme temperatures. They also allow for longer transit times, enabling global trade of time-sensitive goods while maintaining quality.
Despite their advantages, reefer containers have some disadvantages. They require a power source to operate, which adds to the cost and logistics of transportation. Additionally, the refrigeration units take up space inside the container, reducing storage capacity and potentially limiting the flexibility of cargo loading and arrangement. Maintenance and repairs of the refrigeration systems can also be complex and costly.
The floor of a shipping container is commonly a 1-1/8 inch thick marine plywood. This particular type of plywood is specially designed to withstand the harsh conditions of marine environments, ensuring durability and strength. However, it is worth noting that certain containers may feature alternative flooring materials like bamboo, vinyl, or even steel.
