LOCATION AND DESCRIPTION OF MAJOR COMPONENTS

Insulated Container The insulated container is constructed from aluminum-skinned composite panels

mounted on a formed aluminum skid. The skid includes forklift pockets and cargo rails on all four sides.

The cargo rails are compatible with the 463L air cargo system.

The door-end of the IC includes a 36 x 67-in. door supported by four hinges on the right side of the door.

The door is closed with a lever-activated container door lock on the left side of the door. The door is

further secured with two rotating hook and handle assemblies. Directly above the door, a drip-edge

deflects water run-off from the open door. Also mounted above the door is a pilot light to indicate when

the interior light is energized.

At the refrigerator end, the container wall is recessed from the pallet edge to provide an aisle between

adjacent containers when loaded in an aircraft. The key feature of this wall is the refrigeration unit (RU)

that is mounted on the top of the wall panel. Also, to the right of the RU, is an electrical plug that mates

with a power cord on the RU, providing power to the IC interior light.

Sling rings are attached to the four top corners of the container. These are used to lift the system either

by crane or helicopter sling.

Inside the IC, the floor surface includes a tread pattern to reduce slipping and improve traction. Racks of

five removable/adjustable shelves stand parallel to each side wall. Each rack consists of 15 deck

sections, five frames, two front (vertical) supports and two rear (vertical) supports. Two horizontal top

supports span the aisle between the two shelf racks providing additional stability.

The IC interior is lighted by a single light fixture located above the door. The light is controlled by a switch

mounted above the door next to the light fixture.
