Carrier Transicold has announced an order for 4,000 of its PrimeLINE refrigeration units from Evergreen Line.
Carrier Transicold's PrimeLINE are designed to reduce shipboard power generation needs from refrigerated container shipping, and as result cut related emissions. According to the company, the PrimeLINE system has the highest deep-frozen capacity of any unit using R-134a, the non-ozone depleting refrigerant with the lowest global warming potential of all contemporary container refrigerants. Fitted with a digital scroll compressor, the PrimeLINE's efficiency results in lifecycle costs that are significantly lower than rival units as energy is the single largest cost component.
PrimeLINE units now account for more than 20 percent of the containers in Evergreen Line's refrigerated fleet. Most of Evergreen Line's new 40-foot refrigerated containers are being used for fleet expansion, with some used to replace aging units.
