One of the most suitable applications for the Model T30 is in applications where temperature control is paramount, yet continual opening/closing of the doors to forklift traffic means constant refrigeration losses.
Hargreaves of Spalding had such an application where constant traffic meant the chiller doors were open for long spells on occasions.
Caydor recommended they replace the old manual chiller sliding door with an automatic T30 with insulated curtain.
Three months after the door was installed, the temperature record figures were analised.
Figures prior to the change showed that for long spells when temperature drops caused refrigeration plant to increase their workload, to times when temperatures were more constant.
After the new T30 door was installed, temperatures remained constant throughout the day and night. As an added bonus the engineer confirmed that one of the refrigeration plants was now turned off.
Overall, a successful change of operation, giving them lower running costs, yet keeping their customers happy because the product was being kept at a more constant temperature during storage.
It is recommended, from experience, that the doors should be on automatic timer closure.
When the door is activated to open, traffic passes through and an adjustable timer closes the door. When the vehicle returns, again the door opens on activation and closes on timer.
The Fold-Up motion of the T30 causes less air movement than swing doors and the small amount of refrigerated air lost, is quickly replaced.
It is not recommended to have vision areas as these will give less insulation protection when the doors are down.
