Cold storage is an indispensable part of the supply chain of goods, especially in the food and pharmaceutical industries. Cold storage installation process It's not just about building a storage space. frozen but also must ensure standards of temperature, humidity and product safety. This article, Tan Long will go into detail step by step in cold storage installation process standards, from basic construction to installation of control systems and maintenance after completion.
Learn about what cold storage is?
Cold storage is a key element in the supply chain of goods and food, helping to maintain temperatures lower than the outside environment to preserve goods safely and quality. In addition to food, cold storage Also used to store pharmaceuticals, medical equipment and agricultural products.
Cold storage can be designed as a small room or a large warehouse. Thanks to cold storage, the import and export of goods becomes more convenient and popular, ensuring compliance with product preservation conditions and standards.
Standard cold storage installation process at Tan Long
Step 1: Build a ventilation foundation for the cold storage
The process of building a ventilation foundation for cold storage need to be based on the predetermined size. In addition, the installation location also plays an important role. During operation, the cold temperature from the insulation system will be transmitted to the ground, leading to the formation of tiny water droplets. If used for a long time, a lot of accumulated water can reduce the insulation efficiency of the panel.
Therefore, before cold storage installation, the construction of the eel is necessary to create a gap between the warehouse floor and the ground. Some technical standards for the construction of the eel include:
- Distance between eels: 300mm.
- Width and height of each eel: 100mm.
- Width of the surrounding eels: 200mm.
- Eel head vent: 50mm.
- The planes of the eels must be evenly aligned.
Step 2: Install warehouse floor panels
Cold storage floor panels are installed on the ventilation system, ensuring the insulation and durability of the warehouse. The panels are tightly connected together through clamps and reinforced with a specialized silicone layer to ensure tightness.
Points to note when installing warehouse floor panels:
- Ensure slit between the two edges of the panels ranges from 3 – 5mm.
- Keys camlock must be tightened to provide stability.
- Regular check straightness and right angle of the panels to ensure accuracy and aesthetics.
Careful installation will contribute to the longevity and performance of the cold storage.
Step 3: Install wall panels for cold storage
Step 3 in cold storage installation process is the installation of wall panels for cold storage. This process can be done in parallel or after the completion of the Installing the base panel, depending on the specific installation conditions. The wall panels are connected together by clamps and covered with Special silicone for cold storage.
Step 4: Install ceiling panel
In the process cold storage wall panel installation, if conditions permit, the cold storage technical team will also proceed. Parallel ceiling panel installationThis installation will be carried out along the length of the cold storage.
Step 5: Install the pipe
During installation warehouse shell, the installation of pipes is also carried out simultaneously. The pipes must be arranged parallel or perpendicular to each other and tightly fixed on the supports. They need to be Insulate with superlon or foam with the correct thickness according to the specified drawing to ensure aesthetics.
Step 6: Install the condenser system and compressor assembly
The installation standards for the condenser and compressor unit must comply with the following:
- Compressor unit, condenser, water pump and cooling tower must be mounted on iron frame or concrete foundation at least 150mm. The frame or foundation must be flat and have drainage grooves.
- Air or tower cooled condenser The radiator must be placed at least 200mm from the wall.
- Water cooled condenser must be placed at least 500mm from the wall at both ends.
- Compressor should be placed lower than the evaporator.
- Cooling water and chilled water pipes must be installed so as not to form steam traps.
- The drain pipe of the condenser in the warehouse must have a slope greater than 15%.
Step 7: Install the warehouse shell
The installation of the cold storage shell can be carried out in parallel with the installation of the cooling system and compressor unit. The installation will continue until the completion of the part. cold storage shell.
Step 8: Cut the cold storage door
Based on the drawings confirmed with the customer cold storage door installation location, technical team of cold storage will proceed to cut the cold storage door.
Step 9: Install cold storage door
Cold storage usually has two main types of doors: swing doors and sliding doors. Depending on the installation space and usage needs, choose the appropriate door type.
- For open doors: Make sure the lock and hinges are sturdy, and the door opens and closes smoothly and comfortably.
- Heating resistance: Must always be active when the cold storage is operating.
- Cold joint: Must be sealed to prevent cold air from escaping.
Step 10: Install aluminum V corners inside and outside of cold storage
Aluminum V accessories Installed precisely and carefully to increase the solidity and aesthetics of the cold storageThis helps to minimize moisture seepage through the corners of the wall and cold storage floor.
Step 11: Install the control cabinet
This step is considered the final step in the cold storage installation process. In this step, the control cabinet will be connected to the control electrical system, along with the cold storage's power system. This allows the machine cluster and condenser to operate most efficiently and save electricity.
Complete cold storage system meets standards
In the final steps, you need to install accessories such as temperature gauges, pressure balancing valves, alarm bells, cold storage lights, bell switches, etc. completely and in the correct positions according to the design drawings.
At the same time, after completion cold storage installation steps, you need to check all the joints in the warehouse and then shoot silicone between the slots and joints of the parts in the cold storage as the final step.
Cold storage installation process has been done in a standard and tight manner. From the installation of aluminum V-bars, cold storage door According to the drawing, to the installation of accessories and joint inspection, all are done carefully and according to the correct procedure. The firing silicone Finally between the slots and joints helps ensure the tightness and efficiency of the cold storage.
