What is a refrigerated truck used for?
1 Answers
A refrigerated truck is a closed compartment transport vehicle used for transporting frozen foods, dairy products, vegetables, fruits, vaccines, medicines, etc. It is also a specialized refrigerated transport vehicle equipped with a refrigeration unit and a polyurethane insulated compartment. Below is a related introduction: 1. The function of refrigerated trucks: The emergence of refrigerated trucks has enabled many perishable foods such as fruits, meat, and frozen desserts to be transported over long distances under frozen and fresh-keeping conditions. 2. Classification of refrigerated trucks: Refrigerated trucks are divided into two main categories: refrigerated trucks and railway refrigerated cars. Refrigerated trucks are mainly used for food transportation within cities, such as transporting frozen desserts, fresh fruits, fish, and meat from factories to various stores, and sometimes also for medium and short-distance intercity refrigerated transport. Railway refrigerated cars are responsible for medium and long-distance refrigerated food transport tasks. 3. Refrigeration methods of refrigerated trucks: Some refrigerated trucks use ice refrigeration to cool, which means placing a mixture of large blocks of ice and salt in the compartment of the refrigerated truck. This can maintain the internal environment temperature below -8℃. However, this refrigeration method can only last for a limited period. For long-distance refrigerated transport, a series of ice and salt replenishment stations must be set up along the transport route to continuously replenish the ice source and maintain the refrigeration effect.
