Hello all,
I'm trying to spec a condenser section for a small (internal diam 1.85m x 3.55m x 1.35m ) fridge trailer I'm building. And looking for some advise on what sort of compressor would be best suited?
Basically I built one and I rent it out as a portable cold store, mostly for weekend events and cold store break downs. Most of the time the required temperature is around +2 for fresh food and drink. But on the odd occasion I get asked for a freezer, so now I'm building a second trailer what should I do?
Do I spec a frozen LBP unit capable of -18C and run it at +2 most of the time, what damaged could it do to the compressor if any, running outside of its parameters? Or spec a over duty MBP unit and on the odd occasion set it to run at -18C.
The first trailer has a MBP open type condenser section and the unit is well over duty as the unit came up second hand at the right time and right price so I made it fit rather than spec'd it for the cold store. But it does all work well for how it gets used.
Any advise or ideas welcomed.
Thanks
