Built specially for Beijing 2008, the facility can carry out a wide range of boat repairs and provide ample supplies of fresh cold water for crews and the support team.
The ISO shipping container has been modified and has doors at each end, with a bulkhead 5 ft from one end. This small section houses a 10 kVA generator and two CU-RE24GKE compressor units. The larger section includes workbenches, power tools, storage for parts and materials, water purification and cooling systems and two CS-RE24GKEW wall-mounted inverter units.
The project was supported by air-conditioning distributor Climate Center, which provided the piping and ancillary items, and Cool Systems, which installed the kit.
Dean Fradgley, trading director with Climate Center, says, ‘As the UK’s largest supplier of air-conditioning and refrigeration equipment, we had no hesitation in supporting this project, in partnership with a prominent manufacturer and one of our long-standing customers.’
