A 5,000-ton low-temperature cold storage facility at Tianjin Port, covering 2,500 m2 in a steel structure measuring 75 m long by 20 m wide by 10 m high, designed for minus 18 to minus 25 degrees Celsius.

Scope supplied

  • Insulation boards
  • Cold storage doors
  • Refrigeration systems
  • Electrical control systems
  • Remote monitoring system

Why 10 m of height changes the design

A 10 m high chamber needs evaporators that can throw air the full height and depth of the racking, and a floor build-up that carries high-bay racking loads. Airflow design in tall chambers is the difference between an even temperature profile and a warm layer at the top of the racks.

Remote monitoring on a port site

Port cold storage often runs with minimal permanent staff. Remote monitoring with alarming means an excursion raises an alert immediately rather than at the next visit, which on a 5,000-ton frozen store is the difference between a service call and a claim.

See the Belt and Road customs-supervised project for how bonded and customs requirements shape port-side cold storage layouts.
