Refrigeration units remove heat from inside the fridge compartment so the products can remain at the temperatures needed when they leave the supplier.

How does a transport refrigeration unit work?

There are 3 components to a transport refrigeration unit.

1. The evaporator – this portion has tubes containing cold liquid refrigerant that absorbs heat from the air, turning the refrigerant (the substance used in the refrigeration cycle) from liquid to low-pressure gas. The gas and absorbed heat are pumped away from the evaporator.

2. Compressor – Pumps the refrigerant into a high-pressure gas.

3. Condenser – Outside air blows through the condenser, removing heat from the refrigerant gas and turns it back to liquid so it can go around the circuit again.
