Climate controlled intermodal warehouse
August 1st 2006 Located along Portland Maine's waterfront, Sprague Energy's new climate controlled warehouse at the Merrill Marine Terminal is the seventh Rubb structure at the facility. The 5000m2 intermodal facility is used primarily for conditioning high quality newsprint.
In addition to an array of doors, dock seals, dock levellers, rail canopies, and 60 foot candle lighting system, the 52m x 98m BVE range structure features a sophisticated air turnover and environmental control system.
The system's capabilities include a two million BTU heater system working with a dehumidification system that delivers 127m3 of dry air per minute.
The system's overall function is to automatically heat the building as required to maintain the interior environment with no condensation on stored product or building surfaces year round. It also controls carbon monoxide levels when vehicles operate within the structure. More articles from Rubb Building Systems: |
