REFRIGERATION EQUIPMENT

Type of refrigeration equipment required depends on vessel, purpose of use and environment. For example, merchant marines, offshore and fishing fleets all require different functions from refrigeration. Even in offshore installations, different systems are required for different environments such as fixed platforms, semi-submersibles, or floating rigs and vessels.

Type of refrigeration equipment required depends on vessel, purpose of use and environment. For example, merchant marines, offshore and fishing fleets all require different functions from refrigeration. Even in offshore installations, different systems are required for different environments such as fixed platforms, semi-submersibles, or floating rigs and vessels. Various types of products include marine water chillers, condensing units, self-contained units, refrigeration systems for provision rooms and also custom-made units. If seeking refrigeration equipment in a fishing vessel, then requirements are vastly different to the leisure craft owner. Freezing and chilling solutions are critical for business, more so if methods are eco-friendly and enable longer work periods. Similarly, different types of refrigeration systems apply to different types of recreational boat owners, for example, weekend sailors, vs. those who are going to be spending long stretches cruising, vs. those who spend more time docking. The first could seek evaporator plates for rapid cooling, the second would find energy efficiency in holding plate systems which store thermal energy and the last would find many options in AC/DC systems, ice-box conversions, etc. Less
