Author(s) : SHARP A. K.

Type of article: Article

Summary

AN AIR TEMPERATURE IS DISPLAYED ON THE CONTAINER'S TEMPERATURE RECORDER, BUT PRODUCE TEMPERATURES USUALLY DIFFER FROM THIS VALUE, ESPECIALLY DURING THE FIRST FEW DAYS OF THE JOURNEY. PRODUCE TEMPERATURES CAN BE MONITORED FROM OUTSIDE THE CONTAINER, USING THERMOCOUPLES INSTALLEDWHILE PRODUCE IS BEING STOWED INTO THE CONTAINER. THE PAPER GIVES DETAILS OF HOW THERMOCOUPLES SHOULD BE PREPARED, INSTALLED AND MONITORED, AND HOW ERRORS IN TEMPERATURE READINGS MAY OCCUR.
