How to Select the Configuration for Cold Storage Installation?

The quality of cold storage installation determines the refrigeration effect and service life of the cold storage. Therefore, when choosing a cold storage installation company, it is necessary to compare the detailed cold storage configurations in multiple aspects to ensure the quality of cold storage installation from the source. In other words, we should pay special attention to the quality of the selected equipment. For example, we can consider multiple aspects such as performance, brand, energy consumption, and after-sales service to select and determine the appropriate cold storage configuration. So, how should we consider it specifically? Let's learn about it together.

Configuration of refrigeration system
As the core system of the cold storage, the refrigeration system is a crucial link in the cold storage installation project. It mainly consists of four major parts: compression system, condensation system, evaporation system, and regulating valve. There are also auxiliary parts such as fans, conduits, and meters. It is worth noting that the professionalism and rationality of these equipment and auxiliary parts are very crucial. In addition, the selection of refrigerants in the entire refrigeration system cycle is also quite important. The supply amount and the number of times of entering the evaporator should be controlled according to needs to obtain suitable low-temperature conditions.

Selection of compressor
Small cold storages often use fully enclosed compressor units, while medium and large cold storages often use semi-hermetic compressors as the main ones. It is worth noting that the barrel pump unit is also the main configuration of large cold storage machine rooms. Thanks to the efficient refrigeration capacity and pleasant energy saving of the barrel pump unit.

Selection of evaporator
The selection of evaporator is the core of questions such as "Is an air cooler better or a row of pipes better?" that customers care about when consulting about cold storage installation. In the selection of evaporators for cold storages, air coolers are often selected as evaporators for high-temperature cold storages. Their characteristic is fast cooling speed, but they are easy to cause water loss of refrigerated products. While for medium and low-temperature cold storages, evaporation coils made of seamless steel pipes are often selected as the main ones. Their characteristic is good constant temperature effect and they can store cold in due time.

However, it varies from warehouse to warehouse, and it is very important to choose according to needs. It is recommended to refer to the selection opinions of engineers from professional cold storage installation companies.

Installation of cold storage panels
In addition to the high quality of refrigeration system equipment products, the thermal insulation performance of the cold storage panel assembled into the warehouse body is also very important. Polyurethane insulation material cold storage panels are currently the commonly used type for assembled cold storages because they have excellent thermal insulation performance, convenient construction, and easy disassembly and assembly. In the installation of cold storage panels, 10-centimeter-thick polyurethane cold storage panels are usually selected for high and medium temperature cold storages.

For low-temperature cold storages and frozen cold storages, 12-centimeter or 15-centimeter-thick polyurethane cold storage panels are usually selected. For quick-freezing cold storages, it is more suitable to select polyurethane cold storage panels with a thickness of 20 centimeters.

The above mainly introduces the precautions for the selection of refrigeration system products and warehouse bodies. The quality of other equipment such as electrical systems and lighting systems also needs to be noted. Only by selecting high-quality equipment can we more effectively achieve the source guarantee of cold storage installation quality.
