Refrigerated equipment. Insulated equipment which, using a source of cold (natural ice, with or without the addition of salt; eutectic plates; dry ice, with or without sublimation control; liquefied gases, with or without evaporation control, etc.) other than a mechanical or "absorption" unit, is capable, with a mean outside temperature of + 30 °C, of lowering the temperature inside the empty body to, and thereafter maintaining it: At + 7 °C maximum in the case of class A; At ‑ 10 °C maximum in the case of class B; At ‑ 20 °C maximum in the case of class C; and At 0 °C maximum in the case of class D. If such equipment includes one or more compartments, receptacles or tanks for the refrigerant. The said compartments, receptacles or tanks shall: Be capable of being filled or refilled from the outside; and
Refrigerated equipment. 3.1.1 The empty equipment shall be placed in an insulated chamber whose mean temperature shall be kept uniform, and constant to within ± 0.5 K, at + 30 °C. The mass of air in of the chamber shall be made to circulate as described in paragraph 2.1.5 of this appendix.
3.1.2 Temperature measuring instruments protected against radiation shall be placed inside and outside the body at the points specified in paragraphs 1.3 and 1.4 of this appendix.
(a) In the case of equipment other than equipment with fixed eutectic plates, and equipment fitted with liquefied gas systems, the maximum weight of refrigerant specified by the manufacturer or which can normally be accommodated shall be loaded into the spaces provided when the mean inside temperature of the body has reached the mean outside temperature of the body (+ 30 °C). Doors, hatches and other openings shall be closed and the inside ventilation appliances (if any) of the equipment shall be started up at maximum capacity. In addition, in the case of new equipment, a heating appliance with a heating capacity equal to 35% of the heat exchanged through the walls in continuous operation shall be started up inside the body when the temperature prescribed for the class to which the equipment is presumed to belong has been reached. No additional refrigerant shall be loaded during the test;
(b) In the case of equipment with fixed eutectic plates, the test shall comprise a preliminary phase of freezing of the eutectic solution. For this purpose, when the mean inside temperature of the body and the temperature of the plates have reached the mean outside temperature (+ 30 °C), the plate-cooling appliance shall be put into operation for 18 consecutive hours after closure of the doors and hatches. If the plate-cooling appliance includes a cyclically-operating mechanism, the total duration of operation of the appliance shall be 24 hours. In the case of new equipment, as soon as the cooling appliance is stopped, a heating appliance with a heating capacity equal to 35% of the heat exchanged through the walls in continuous operation shall be started up inside the body when the temperature prescribed for the class to which the equipment is presumed to belong has been reached. The solution shall not be subjected to any re-freezing operation during the test;
(c) In the case of equipment fitted with liquefied gas systems, the following test procedure shall be used: when the mean inside temperature of the body has reached the mean ou...
Refrigerated equipment. The empty equipment shall be placed in an insulated chamber whose mean temperature shall be kept uniform, and constant to within ± 0.5 K, at + 30 °C. The mass of air in the chamber shall be made to circulate as described in paragraph 9 of this appendix.
Refrigerated equipment. A. Refrigerated Equipment shall comply with the requirements in this Section 4 and the requirements in Section 2.
B. Carrier shall ensure that all refrigerated Equipment is clean and in good repair and all gauges and/or recording instruments are operating.
C. Carrier shall ensure that, before furnishing the refrigerated Equipment for loading, that the refrigerated Equipment is pre-cooled to the temperature specified in Broker’s load tender request and that all residual heat has been removed from the refrigerated Equipment, including but not limited to, from insulation and inner lining of the refrigerated Equipment.
D. Carrier shall set and maintain the ambient interior temperature of each trailer or other refrigerated Equipment at the temperatures specified in Broker’s load tender request or bill of lading, and that are sufficient to ensure that, under foreseeable circumstances of temperature variation during transport, Products will not be adulterated or otherwise rendered unsafe (the “Operating Temperature”).
E. At any time upon Xxxxxx’s request, Carrier shall provide information regarding the temperature readings and settings in any Equipment used for food transportation. Upon completion of each shipment and at the request of Broker or the designated receiver of the consignee, Carrier shall provide the Operating Temperature and demonstrate that the Operating Temperature was maintained during transport. Unless the parties otherwise agree in writing, the demonstration must be accomplished by downloading the time/temperature data taken by the Carrier during transport. Carrier represents and warrants that it possesses the technology to comply with this Section 4(e).
5. “Shipper’s-Load-And-Count”:
A. For all Shipper’s-Load-And-Count Shipments, Xxxxxxx will be responsible for claims of shortage, unless the seal was broken while in a Carrier’s custody in violation of the Seal Policy, or to the extent caused by Xxxxxxx’s negligence, willful misconduct or breach of this Agreement. Carrier shall count the pallets and loose pieces and inspect Products for damage after seal has been broken on multiple stop loads.
B. For all Shipper’s-Load-And-Count Shipments, Xxxxxxx is not responsible for improper loading, shifting load, unless the shipment is a multiple-stop load, in which case the Carrier is responsible after the first stop to rearrange, block and brace freight to prevent shifting or damage or to the extent caused by Carrier’s negligence, willful misconduct or b...
Refrigerated equipment. Insulated equipment which, using a source of cold (natural ice, with or without the addition of salt; eutectic plates; dry ice, with or without sublimation control; liquefied gases, with or without evaporation control, etc.) other than a mechanical or "absorption" unit, is capable, with a mean outside temperature of + 30 °C, of lowering the temperature inside the empty body to, and thereafter maintaining it: At +7o C maximum in the case of class A; At -10o C maximum in the case of class B; At -20o C maximum in the case of class C; and At 0o C maximum in the case of class D, with the aid of appropriate refrigerants and fittings. Such equipment shall comprise one or more compartments, receptacles or tanks for the refrigerant. The said compartments, receptacles or tanks shall: Be capable of being filled or refilled from the outside; and Have a capacity in conformity with the provisions of annex 1, appendix 2, paragraph 34. The K coefficient of equipment of classes B and C shall in every case be equal to or less than 0.4 W/m2o C.
Refrigerated equipment. It shall be verified that the inside temperature of the empty equipment, previously brought to the outside temperature, can be brought to the limit temperature of the class to which the equipment belongs, as prescribed in this annex, and maintained below the said limit temperature for a period t such that in which is the difference between +30o C and the said limit temperature, and is the difference between the mean outside temperature during the test and the aforesaid limit temperature, the outside temperature being not lower than +15o C. If the results are favourable, the equipment may be kept in service as refrigerated equipment of its initial class for a further period of not more than three years.
Refrigerated equipment. Xxxxxxx agrees when accepting refrigerated Equipment that:
4.5.1 Fuel used in excess of that required to provide refrigeration shall be replaced by the Carrier at the time the mechanical refrigeration Equipment unit is returned. If the Carrier fails to replenish the fuel supply, the Carrier may be billed and will pay for the cost of the fuel consumed.
4.5.2 When mechanical refrigeration Equipment is unloaded, Carrier shall have the Equipment cleaned prior to return, unless otherwise agreed between Crowley and the Carrier. If the Carrier fails to steam clean, the Carrier shall be responsible as provided in Section 4.9.
