Everything You Need to Know About Reefer Trailers

Refrigerated trailers, commonly known as reefer trailers, are vital tools for transporting temperature-sensitive cargo from manufacturer to distributor. We here at 1580 Utility Trailer want to make sure you know and understand your equipment, so we’ve put together some basic information on reefer trailers, below. To learn more, or to see the reefer trailers we have available for sale, contact our dealership in Salt Lake City, Utah, today!

How They Work

Thermo King® and Carrier® brand reefer units are diesel-powered refrigerators mounted on the front of Utility brand reefer trailers. They keep the contents within the semi-trailer at their ideal temperature until delivery. The three major components of the cooling system are the compressor, the condenser, and the evaporator. The diesel-powered compressor pumps freon throughout a sealed system to force the evaporator to pull hot air out of the cargo area and transfer it to the condenser which then exhausts it into the atmosphere. The cycle is repeated until the cargo area drops to the desired temperature.

Details About Insulation

A good reefer unit isn’t enough to keep the cargo cool. That’s why we here at 1580 Utility Trailer offer reefer trailers that exceed the trucking industry’s standards by optimizing the reefer unit’s ability to cool cargo loads with state-of-the-art insulation. Furthermore, many reefer trailers are painted white to help reflect sunlight and reduce heat absorption. Their interiors are lined with fiberglass-reinforced plastic to protect their loads from outside contamination. Your next reefer trailer can be a reliable asset for years with preventative maintenance at 1580 Utility Trailer.
