Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

In accordance with the regulations on the transport of perishable goods (ATP Agreement) and the DGT technical definitions: Insulated vehicle: It has a body with insulating walls, doors, floor and roof that minimize heat exchange between the inside and the outside, but it has no active cooling or heating equipment. Refrigerated vehicle (or refrigerant vehicle): It is an insulated vehicle that has a non-mechanical source of cold (such as dry ice or eutectic plates) to keep the temperature low. Mechanically refrigerated vehicle: It is an insulated vehicle fitted with a compressor or a mechanical cold-producing device that regulates and maintains the temperature actively. Therefore, the definition that refers exclusively to the insulation of the walls, without cooling devices, corresponds to the insulated vehicle.
