Author(s) : HANSEN I.
Summary
The article describes what it claims to be first recently developed ammonia refrigerating plant for reefers. The following areas are discussed: ammonia as refrigerant in comparison with the traditional CFC/HCFC refrigerants; construction of refrigerating plant and the special technical requirements; special safety problems and the solutions to them; control, supervision and alarm system for refrigerating plant and cargo holds and preparations for controlled atmosphere. Special precautions are necessary for construction, which should be executed as a brine system with a separate and airtight compressor room equipped with a comprehensive ventilation system and a washing system for absorption of ammonia in the event of leakage.
