The importance of accurate temperature maintenance in a cold storage facility cannot be overemphasized. Accurate temperature maintenance is one of the big challenges facing those given the responsibility of operating and maintaining refrigerated warehouses, distribution centers, and food processing and storage facilities.
Large cold storage facilities use commercial refrigeration panels in California. The panels, as well as having excellent thermal insulating qualities, are lightweight, which facilitates fast and easy installation.
Energy saving:
A commercial cold storage facility has to withstand daily use; it also has to be energy efficient. California has set “R” values for coolers and freezers. The standards established are strict, and it is possible to achieve R28 for coolers and R36 for freezers because of panel design and construction, as well as the choice of insulating material. The material used is either Polystyrene or Polyurethane depending on the specifications that have been established. Both materials are available in many thicknesses; it is the material and its thickness that determines the R-value, which in turn, establishes the units intended use.
Panel system:
Cold storage facilities and freezers are built to satisfy the needs of the customer. The components that are used are those that meet the specifics. To maximize throughput and energy, the size, and hence space in the cooler or freezer, must be carefully thought out. The placement of access doors is critical.
Pre-manufactured panels, built to specific dimensions and thermal specifications, are very easy to install once they arrive on site. Pre-manufactured commercial refrigeration panels are quick to erect, and of equal importance, easy to disassemble. Being able to dismantle the cooler means it can be transferred to a different site when and if this becomes necessary, saving the expense of constructing a new cooler or freezer.
Using commercial refrigeration panels in California expedites the completion of a refrigerated warehouse or cold storage facility. To discuss your project in detail, contact TKS Cold Storage Manufacturing & Construction.
