Some facilities require a stable temperature and humidity for storage, production or inspection rather than low-temperature food storage. The supplied material describes an indoor set point within a 10°C–25°C range, depending on the application.
Door and dock equipment considerations
- Insulated high speed doors combine quick passage with an insulated curtain to help limit the time the opening remains exposed.
- Single-layer high speed doors are described for outer areas where frequent traffic is important and insulation demands are lower.
- Insulated sliding doors can act as the main thermal barrier, with hinged doors for personnel access and double-acting doors for frequent trolley movement.
- Loading areas may use an insulated overhead door with a hydraulic dock leveler and an external mechanical dock seal.
