CA DOORS AND WINDOWS

At the beginning of the 1980’s, the ULO/CA-storage of fruit commenced and the demand for gastight doors arose. For this, Salco developed a gastight refrigeration door with the unique, patented inflatable sealing system.

ULO stands for Ultra Low Oxygen and CA stands for Con-trolled Atmosphere. With this storage method, an atmos-phere with low oxygen content (sometimes lower than 1%), an increased CO2 content, and a temperature and air humidity that depends on the product is created in a gastight refrigeration room. Through this, the ripening is slowed down, as a result of which the storage life is extended. Among other things, Controlled Atmosphere is applied to:

Long-term storage of fruit Storage of vegetables (cabbage) and bulbs Controlling insects in cocoa, rice, tobacco, archives and conservation in museums

Fire prevention

Our doors are in various designs also used for the sealing of biogas tunnels. Storage and/or treatment takes place in gastight spaces. The door constitutes a critical component in relation to this.

Prominent in CA doors world-wideIn 35 years, Salco has developed into a well-known name in various industries at home and abroad, in which the fruit industry is our most important export market. We work together with a network of distributors throughout the world. Specialised businesses that know the local market and dispose of an own organisation with sales, installation and service.

The why and wherefore of Salco CA doorsSalco’s gastight doors are provided with a unique inflatable seal that guarantees 100% gastightness. This seal consists of two parts: an inflatable, continuous inner tube and a protective, flexible sealing rubber on the outside that presses against the floor and the door frame by pumping up the tube. In this manner, a first-rate seal is created that is unequalled all over the world.

Owing to its air pressure and flexibility, the sealing rubber follows any possible irregularities in the floor and the wall. Even changes in the floor as a result of driving in and out are intercepted well. Extra security and still 100% sealed after years of operation.

The seal is not created by squeezing the door shut by great force (as a result of which wear and leakage will soon develop), but by means of steady air pressure in the sealing system. In this manner, point concentrated loads are avoided and the gastightness is ensured for a long time. No vaseline or sealant is necessary for gastight sealing, not even after years of use. Because of this, the room can be opened and sealed gastight in seconds and everything stays clean.

For checking, the air pressure of the seal is readable on the integrated pressure gauge. The 100 millimetre thick door is lightweight owing to the use of high quality, seamless polyester, and available in several colours. The door frame and framing are completely free of thermal bridges and executed in anodized aluminum. The doors are available in a horizontal and a vertical design, and as a hinged door.

The horizontal design is provided with an anodized aluminum drop/lift-rail system with an integrated finishing cover. In addition to manual controls, the door can also be provided with electrical controls.

The vertical design is pre-eminently suitable in situations where there is little side-space, or where goods are conveyed over the entire width of the room. By manufacturing doors that are as wide as the room, goods can be driven in and out of the room quickly and efficiently, and the room space is utilized optimally. As the doors are often applied in a damp environment, the vertical rail system and the bridging beam are powder coated in RAL 9016 (white). In addition to manual controls, the door can also be provided with electrical controls.

Construction kit for CA door KHG-0810(V)

Specially developed for small, narrow CA refrigeration cells from which small batches are taken regularly. By using a hinged door the room width is com-pletely accessible. The door is lightweight, can be opened and closed quickly and it is provided with a drop/lift hinge. Due to this, by pulling up the handle the door is pushed upwards several millimeters so that wear of the bottom rubber is avoided. The ideal solution for gastight storage refrigeration rooms for berries, cherries and other small fruit.

Salco gastight doors are designed, produced and assem-bled by our own staff. Everything under the same roof, so that we can guarantee a high-quality product for the full 100%. Safe, reliable, user-friendly and with a long life span.

You can also count on us after the installation of our doors. Salco disposes of an extensive service department for solving malfunctions and/or damage. Our specialists are at your service 24 hours per day 7 days per week. Fast, competent and efficient.

With fruit storage, it is important that the content in the low-oxygen refrigeration rooms is visible, or that it is possible to take samples of the fruit. For this purpose, Salco supplies gastight windows that can be installed both in the door and in the walls of the refrigeration cell. For installation in the ceiling, Salco supplies special gastight control windows with single-layered safety glass that have a handle with a cylinder lock on the outside.The windowed escape hatch has a padlock construction on the outside and an emergency unlocking device on the inside. Both types of windows are supplied with a counter frame for installation in a maximum of 100 millimetres or 200 millimetres.
