With the rapid development of the domestic cold chain logistics market, the market demand for refrigerated trucks continues to expand. Among them, small refrigerated truck models are small, flexible and convenient for transportation, and are mostly used for cold chain transportation of vegetables, fruits, fresh milk, fresh meat and other products in urban areas.

In the process of using small refrigerated trucks, there are often many misunderstandings. If transport personnel who are unfamiliar with small refrigerated trucks ignore these issues, it is easy to cause losses in cold chain transportation of goods.

The Chongqing refrigerated truck editor has compiled a list of common misconceptions in the use of small refrigerated trucks to help you avoid risks during cold chain transportation.

1. The larger the refrigeration capacity of the refrigeration unit, the better

The cooling capacity is not the only criterion for measuring a refrigeration unit. Although the larger the cooling capacity of a small refrigerated truck, the faster the cooling speed of the box and the lower the engine horsepower consumed.

However, the larger the cooling capacity of a small refrigerated truck, the more electricity it consumes. Once the generator's power generation cannot meet the demand, it is easy for the battery to lose power and not start a fire. Therefore, when installing a refrigeration unit on a small refrigerated truck, it is recommended to match the appropriate cooling capacity as much as possible.

2. Goods packing does not require pre cooling in advance

The insulation box of the refrigerated truck plays a role in insulation, and the refrigeration machine mainly maintains the temperature of the goods. Therefore, before packing the goods, they need to be pre cooled to the normal storage temperature. Small refrigerated trucks need to discharge the heat inside the compartment in advance, and the pre cooling temperature of the vehicle is consistent with the temperature of the goods.

3. The goods can be packed randomly without any requirements

Before packing the goods, the small refrigerated truck needs to be placed in a cool place for pre cooling. When loading the refrigerated truck, pallets need to be used for transportation to ensure bottom cooling and circulation ventilation. There should be some gaps around the goods and refrigerated compartment to ensure air circulation inside the compartment.

4. Is it better to lower the temperature when transporting fewer goods

The refrigeration capacity required during the transportation of small refrigerated trucks is related to the size of the goods. The less goods transported, the larger the space inside the carriage, and the higher the demand for refrigeration capacity. Conversely, the larger the volume of goods transported, the more refrigeration capacity they contain, the lower the demand for refrigeration capacity, and the faster the cooling speed.
