(Date: November 2014)
Approval of vehicles intended for the carriage of
perishable goods.
Before putting a refrigerated vehicle into service, it is
necessary to have it approved by the Regional Health
Department.
Characteristics of vehicles used for carrying perishable
goods; mechanically refrigerated equipment.
The mechanically refrigerated equipment is an
insulated unit with a cooling system which makes it
possible, with a mean outside temperature of +30°C,
to lower the temperature inside the empty body and to
maintain this low temperature in the following way:
Class A: Mechanically refrigerated equipment
furnished with a cooling system whereby a
temperature b12°C and 0°C inclusive can be
chosen.
Class B: Mechanically refrigerated equipment
furnished with a cooling system whereby a
temperature b12°C and–10°C inclusive can
be chosen.
Class C: Mechanically refrigerated equipment
furnished with a cooling system whereby a
temperature b12°C and–20°C inclusive can
be chosen.
Class D: Mechanically refrigerated equipment fitted
with a refrigerating appliance such that t
i
is equal to or
less than 0
º
C.
Class E: Mechanically refrigerated equipment fitted
with a refrigerating appliance such that t
i
is equal to or
less than -10
º
C.
Class F: Mechanically refrigerated equipment fitted
with a refrigerating appliance such that t
i
is equal to or
less than -20
º
C.
The cooling capacity of a unit is determined by a test
carried out in one of the approved testing stations and
ratified by an official report.
Note: The "K" coefficient of equipment of classes B,
C, E and F shall in every case be equal to or less than
0.4 W/m2. °C.
Signs, identification marks and plates to be attached to
mechanically refrigerated equipment.
Refrigeration Plate
This heavy insulation must be followed by
identification marks according to the following list:
Class A mechanically refrigerated equipment with
normal insulation FNA
Class A mechanically refrigerated equipment with
heavy insulation FRA
Class B mechanically refrigerated equipment with
heavy insulation FRB
Class C mechanically refrigerated equipment with
heavy insulation FRC
Class D mechanically refrigerated equipment with
heavy insulation FRD
Class E mechanically refrigerated equipment with
heavy insulation FRE
Class F mechanically refrigerated equipment with
heavy insulation FRF
In addition to the above identification marks, the date
(month and year) of expiry of the approval certificate
must be indicated.
Example:
FRC 06 - 2006
(06 = month (June) 2006 = year)
Very important
Regularly check the expiry date of the approval
certificate. During transport, the approval certificate or
provisional certificate should be shown on request of
qualified agents. To have an insulated unit approved
as a refrigeration unit, an application to modify the
approval certificate should be sent to the regional
health office.
