    Description

    Standard containers are also known as general purpose containers.

    They are closed containers, i.e. they are closed on all sides. A distinction may be drawn between the following types of standard container:

    Standard containers with doors at one or both end(s)
    Standard containers with doors at one or both end(s) and doors over the entire length of one or both sides
    Standard containers with doors at one or both end(s) and doors on one or both sides
    In addition, the various types of standard container also differ in dimensions and weight, resulting in a wide range of standard containers.
    Standard containers are mainly used as 20′ and 40′ containers. Containers with smaller dimensions are very seldom used. Indeed, the trend is towards even longer dimensions.

    3. Ocean containers: 40′ HIGH-CUBE Dimension

    • INSIDE LENGTH: 12.024 m
    • INSIDE WIDTH: 2.350 m
    • INSIDE HEIGHT: 2.697 m
    • DOOR WIDTH: 2.340 m
    • DOOR HEIGHT: 2.597 m
    • CAPACITY:76 m3
    • TARE WEIGHT: 4020 Kgs
    • MAX CARGO WEIGHT: 26460 Kgs

    Description

    High-cube containers are similar in structure to standard containers, but taller. In contrast to standard containers, which have a maximum height of 2591 mm (8’6″), high-cube containers are 2896 mm, or 9’6″, tall. High-cube containers are for the most part 40′ long, but are sometimes made as 45′ containers.

    A number of lashing rings, capable of bearing loads of at most 1000 kg, are mounted on the front top end rail and bottom cross member and the corner posts.

    Many 40′ containers have a recess in the floor at the front end which serves to center the containers on so-called goose-neck chassis. These recesses allow the containers to lie lower and therefore to be of taller construction.

    Usage

    High-cube containers are used for all types general cargo (dry cargo). However, they are particularly suitable for transporting light, voluminous cargoes and over-height cargoes up to a maximum of 2.70 m tall.

    4. Ocean containers: 20′ OPEN TOP Dimension

    • INSIDE WIDTH: 32.45 m
    • INSIDE HEIGHT: 2.315 m
    • DOOR WIDTH: 2.286 m
    • DOOR HEIGHT: 2.184 m
    • CAPACITY: 32 m3
    • TARE WEIGHT: 2250 Kgs
    • MAX CARGO WEIGHT: 30480 Kgs

    Description

    The walls of open-top containers are generally made of corrugated steel. The floor is made of wood.

    It has the following typical distinguishing structural features. The roof consists of removable bows and a removable tarpaulin. The door header may be swiveled out.

    These two structural features greatly simplify the process of packing and unpacking the container. In particular, it is very easy to pack and unpack the container from above or through the doors by crane or crab when the roof is open and the door header is swiveled out.

    It should be noted, however, that the purpose of the roof bows of an open-top container is not solely to support the tarpaulin but also to contribute to container stability. Flatracks are therefore more suitable for over-height cargoes.

    Lashing rings, to which the cargo may be secured, are installed in the upper and lower side rails and the corner posts. The lashing rings may take loads of up to 1,000 kg.

    Usual open-top container dimensions are 20′ and 40′.

    Usage

    Open-top containers are used for all types of general cargo (dry cargo). Their principal uses are as follows:

    packing and unpacking from above or through the doors by crane or crab
    tall cargo

    A number of lashing rings, to which the cargo may be secured, are installed in the side rails, the corner posts and the floor. The lashing rings may take loads of up to 2000 kg in the case of 20′ flatracks or up to 4000 kg in the case of 40′ flatracks.

    Some types of 20′ flatracks have forklift pockets.

    40′ flatracks have gooseneck tunnels at each end. In addition, they are sometimes equipped with lashing winches with 2 metric ton lashing belts.

    For transport of certain cargoes, flatracks may be provided with stanchions.

    Usage

    Flatracks are mainly used to transport heavy-lifts and overheight or overwidth cargoes.

    7. Ocean containers: 20′ REFRIGERATED Dimension

    • INSIDE LENGTH: 5.724 m
    • INSIDE WIDTH: 2.286 m
    • INSIDE HEIGHT: 2.014 m
    • DOOR WIDTH: 2.286 m
    • DOOR HEIGHT: 2.067 m
    • CAPACITY:26 m3
    • TARE WEIGHT: 2550 Kgs
    • MAX CARGO WEIGHT: 21450 Kgs

    Description

    The refrigeration unit is arranged in such a way that the external dimensions of the container meet ISO standards and thus fit into the container ship cell guides, for example. The presence of an integral refrigeration unit entails a loss of internal volume and payload.

    When being transported by ship, integral units have to be connected to the on-board power supply system. The number of refrigerated containers which may be connected depends on the capacity of the ship’s power supply system. If the aforesaid capacity is too low for the refrigerated containers to be transported, “power packs” may be used, which are equipped with relatively large diesel generators and satisfy ISO requirements with regard to the dimensions of a 20′ container. When at the terminal, the containers are connected to the terminal’s power supply system. For transport by road and rail, most integral unit refrigeration units are operated by a generator set (genset). This may either be a component of the refrigeration unit or connected to the refrigeration unit.

    Air flows through the container from bottom to top. In general, the “warm” air is drawn off from the inside of the container, cooled in the refrigeration unit and then blown back in the container as cold air.

    To ensure adequate circulation of the cold air, the floor is provided with gratings. Pallets form an additional space between container floor and cargo, so also forming a satisfactory air flow channel. In addition, the side walls of the container are “corrugated”, which ensures satisfactory air flow there too.

    In the upper area of the container, adequate space (at least 12 cm) must likewise be provided for air flow. For this purpose, during packing of the container adequate free space must be left above the cargo. The maximum load height is marked on the side walls.

    To ensure vertical air flow from bottom to top, packaging must also be appropriately designed and the cargo must be sensibly stowed.

    In addition to temperature regulation, integral units also allow a controlled fresh air exchange, for example for the removal of metabolic products such as CO2 and ethylene in the case of the transport of fruits.

    In the refrigeration units, both the supply and return air temperatures are measured and, depending on the operating mode, one of these values is used to control the cold air. Temperature measurement may be performed in various ways. The Part-low recorder generally records return air temperature, since this provides an indication of the state or temperature of the cargo. Data loggers are increasingly used, which detect temperature digitally and indicate it on a display. Once transferred to a PC, the data may then be evaluated.

    The temperature display is attached to the outside of the refrigeration unit, so that operation of the unit may be checked at any time.

    Digital or analog recorders may also be positioned directly in the cargo, so as to measure temperatures inside the container. The recorder should be accommodated in such a way that it records the temperatures at risk points in the container (inside the packaging, top layer at door end).

    Integral units may be stowed both above and below deck on a ship. Above deck stowage has the advantage that the heat from return air may be more readily dissipated. However, the containers are often exposed to strong solar radiation, leading to increased refrigeration capacity requirements.

    Usage

    Refrigerated containers are used for goods which need to be transported at a constant temperature above or below freezing point. These goods are divided into chilled goods and frozen goods, depending on the specified transport temperature. They principally include fruit, vegetables, meat and dairy products, such as butter and cheese.

    High-cube integral units are used in particular for voluminous and light goods (e.g. fruit, flowers).

    Nowadays, goods requiring refrigeration are mostly transported in integral units, which have a markedly higher market share than porthole containers.

    Chilled meat is sometimes also transported hanging, for which purpose the ceilings of refrigerated containers are equipped with special hook rails

    9. Ocean containers: 20′ BULK Dimension

    • INSIDE LENGTH: 5.934 m
    • INSIDE WIDTH: 2.358 m
    • INSIDE HEIGHT: 2.340 m
    • DOOR WIDTH: 2.335 m
    • DOOR HEIGHT: 2.292 m
    • CAPACITY: 32 m3
    • TARE WEIGHT: 2450 Kgs
    • MAX CARGO WEIGHT: 21550 Kgs

    Description

    Bulk (or bulk cargo) containers have three loading hatches in the roof, each of a diameter of approx. 455 mm (1 3/4′). The distance between the hatches (center to center) is 1.83 m (6′). On the door side, there are two discharge hatches, which are sometimes equipped with short discharge tubes for guiding the bulk cargo. Alternatively, two unloading hatches may be mounted in the doorways, for emptying the containers.

    Such containers may also be used for general cargo. Lashing rings are mounted in the top side rails for securing the cargo. Some bulk containers are equipped with forklift pockets, which allow handling by forklift trucks.

    Usage

    Bulk containers are used in particular for transporting bulk cargo, such as grain, feedstuffs, spices. However, they may also be used for transporting general cargo.

    10. Ocean containers: 20′ TANK Dimension

    • INSIDE LENGTH: 6.058 m
    • INSIDE WIDTH: 2.438 m
    • INSIDE HEIGHT: 2.438 m
    • DOOR WIDTH: 0.000 m
    • DOOR HEIGHT: 0.000 m
    • CAPACITY: 0.0 m3
    • TARE WEIGHT: 4190 Kgs
    • MAX CARGO WEIGHT: 26290 Kgs

    Description

    Tank containers must be at least 80%% full, to prevent dangerous surging of the liquids in transit. On the other hand, they must not as a rule be over 95%% full, or there will not be sufficient ullage space for thermal expansion. The extent of thermal expansion may be calculated for each cargo on the basis of the following formula:

    • ΔV = Va · γ ΔT
    • Ve = Va (1 + γ ΔT)
    • ΔV : change in volume
    • Va : volume at initial temperature a
    • Ve : final volume at temperature e
    • γ : coefficient of cubic (thermal) expansion
    • ΔT : temperature difference in degrees kelvin

    Tank containers intended for transporting foodstuffs must be labeled “Potable Liquids only”.

    Some hazardous materials must be transported in tank containers with no in- or outlet openings below the surface of the liquid.

    Tank containers are generally designed for an operating pressure of up to 3 bar (above atmospheric). The test pressure used is 4.5 bar (above atmospheric).

    If the cargo requires temperature-controlled transport, tank containers can be equipped with insulation or heating. The temperature of the cargo may be precisely controlled using temperature sensors.

    Usage

    Tank containers are used for liquid cargoes, such as:

    Foodstuffs: fruit juices, spirits, sweet oils
    Chemicals: hazardous materials, such as fuels, toxic substances, corrosion protection agents.
