Dehumidification

Dehumidification

Product catalog summary
Overview: The document discusses the dehumidification feature of the Carrier container refrigeration system, which utilizes the Micro-Link® 3 controller. This system can be enhanced with a humidity sensor to monitor and control relative humidity, particularly beneficial for transporting perishables.
Specifications: The Micro-Link 3 controller allows for relative humidity (RH) setpoints ranging from 50 to 95% on the PrimeLINE® unit and 60 to 95% on the ThinLINE® unit. These setpoints must be selected by the operator for each trip and are automatically limited to chilled cargoes, not frozen ones.
Features: An optional Bulb Mode feature is available, offering expanded RH setpoint capabilities and tailored controls for evaporator fan and defrost settings, specifically for flower bulb and tuber shipments.
Installation: The humidity sensor is available as a field-installable kit (P/N 76-00675-01). Carrier systems are pre-wired for easy installation, with the sensor mounting in the return-air stream using a supplied bracket and hardware. A pre-wired plug-in connector facilitates simple electrical connections. Post-installation, the controller must be configured to recognize the sensor, with instructions provided in the kit.
Applications: This dehumidification option is particularly effective for transporting perishables like root crops, as it helps prevent mold and fungus growth.

Dehumidification-1

Dehumidification The Carrier container refrigeration system, with Micro-Link® 3 controller, can be fitted with dehumidification by installing a humidity sensor. The system can then record relative humidity along with temperature data. Our dehumidification option is particularly effective when transporting perishables such as root crops (onions, flower bulbs, etc.) because it helps prevent the growth of mold and fungus. The Micro-Link 3 controller will accept setpoints from 50 to 95% on the PrimeLINE® unit (60 to 95% on the ThinLINE® unit) RH for dehumidification. RH setpoint must be operator selected for each trip. Dehumidification is auto­ atically limited by the controller to setpoints used with chilled cargoes m – not frozen. Additionally an optional Bulb Mode feature can be provided, which provides the user with expanded RH setpoint capabilities as well as evaporator fan and defrost setting controls more tailored to the special requirements associated with flower bulb and tuber shipments. The humidity sensor is also available in kit form for field installation. Carrier systems are factory pre-wired, making field installation of the sensor quick and easy. The solid-state sensor mounts in the return-air stream with a supplied bracket and hardware. Simple electrical connection is made by pre-wired plug-in connector. After sensor installation, the controller must be configured to recognize the sensor. Instructions are included with the kit.
