What types of refrigerated vans are there?
There are four main categories of affordable refrigerated vans:
Insulation-only van – An insulation-only van has a cargo area that is lined with a 50-millimetre layer of insulation. The type of insulation varies and is usually either Styrofoam or polystyrene. Insulated panel vans are not used for food but are more in use for non-edible items that need refrigerating.
Chiller conversion van – Chiller vans are insulated with a 50-millimetre layer of insulating material and also have a chill refrigerator. These vans are used for items that need refrigerating but not freezing.
Semi-freezer conversion van – A semi-freezer van has a 75-millimetre layer of insulation and a refrigeration system with either hot-gas defrost or reverse-cycle defrost. You can keep food as low as -10 to -15 degrees Centigrade.
Full-freezer conversion van – These full-freezer vans have a 75-millimetre layer of insulation and reinforced doors. The refrigeration systems are either reverse-cycle or hot-gas defrost. You can keep products at -20 degrees Centigrade with these existing features.
Temperature, transportation and logistics.
Refrigerated vehicles are vital for transportation, logistics and businesses that require temperature-controlled environment.
The role that refrigerated vehicles play in many businesses is underrated. Maintaining the temperature of the items that you are delivering is essential to the success of your business. Glacier Vehicles can offer exceptional advice on the reliable refrigerated vehicle would suit your business best. We can also advise you on the size that will match your cargo capacity, as we have a wide range of controlled vehicles from small to medium to large.
Glazier Vehicles offers knowledge on how to maintain a temperature-controlled refrigeration vehicle. Temperature control can lead to success or it can deeply affect your business. Our refrigeration units are especially suitable for businesses in the fish industry, or businesses that deal with the delivery and sale of flowers. If you are a business that is responsible for the delivery of a large number of items, our refrigerated trucks are suitable for keeping your stock at a cool temperature, preventing your stock from losing its value.
How refrigerated van unit work?
Glazier Vehicles does not only deal with the sale of refrigerated vans, we also do van conversion by adding an insulation lining kit 75 mL of thick material. In today’s market, there are many low-cost materials being used that are not suitable for refrigerated vehicles, and that could be the end of your business if you install these into your temperature-controlled van.
Glazier Vehicles offers high quality refrigerated vehicles for sale. The surface that is used inside the refrigerated van is lined with thick layers of impenetrable polymer foam, thus preventing any external heat from entering the cooling compartment. After the insulation foam has been applied, the inner parts of the van are then applied with another layer that ensures the polymer foam will not be harmed in the process of storing and unloading stock from the vehicle.
Protective coating
First is Wet lay – it consists of liquid polymer that will solidify as soon as it makes contact with air. Once dry, it will then become a tight and soft white layer that is also hygienic and washable. Dry lay – this entails fitting solid tiles into the insulated compartment. This is less efficient due to it not filling in the gaps the way in which Wet lay does.
Using the power that the vehicle’s engine generates, the refrigerated vans would use a drive mechanism in order to run the refrigeration compartment. The freezer inside the refrigerated van is accessible and easy to understand for refrigerated van users. Inside the refrigerated van, you will find an evaporator, a compressor, and the condenser.
A condenser, could be described as a backward radiator. Rather than emitting heat, it attracts heat through a metal pipe which is then met with a coolant liquid that will circulate through it. That liquid will then become gas and is then transferred over to the compressor. The compressor’s job is to compress that gas up to where it meets high-pressure, which is then passed on to the evaporator. The evaporator will maintain low temperature by forcing any external air via the pressured gas, which will then turn it back into a liquid and will finally make its way back through the system.
Refrigerated vehicles at Glazier Vehicles are held high in standards when it comes to safety and reliability, which allows the cooling compartment to maintain specific conditions of 30°C to -18°C. In the loading space of the vehicle you will find logging temperature data units that pick up on the temperature of the van.
