Coolrooms don’t look all that dangerous. It’s freezing cold in there, especially inside a walk-in freezer, but the chill passes rapidly. The staff member gets in, collects or drops food, and is out again in no time at all. What about worst-case scenarios? They exist. And what about general precautions? They’re needed if the employee is to operate under an appliance-mandated umbrella of safety. Warehouse Coolroom Safety Sometimes the work area isn’t confined to a walk-in enclosure.

Effects of Broken Gaskets in Freezers
10 April 2018
A broken freezer gasket is allowing warm air into a hard-working freezer. The compressor unit responds to the leak by working harder. It’s going to wear out soon unless the broken seal is replaced. Continuously operating compressors, pools of water, spoiled food, and increasing operational costs, all of these problems can be explained by calling out a service engineer, someone who’ll likely go straight to that broken gasket. Coping with Counterintuitive Effects If warm air is getting inside the freezer, why is the refrigeration unit gaining a layer of ice? Speaking plainly, the equipment is doing too much.

15 March 2018

There are tissue samples stored in here, plus shelves of bacterial cultures. Every variable is controlled in here. Thanks to that carefully regulated laboratory setting, the biological samples behave in a predictable manner. Now, however, the lab freezer is breaking down. Temperature consistency has gone out the window. Introducing Experimental Bias The experiment is a bust. Those monitored results are meaningless because the intended thermal envelope became biased.
