40ft High Cube Reefer — Serviced Operational Unit
SKU MG-40HCREEF-SRV · Held at Johannesburg, Gauteng
A 40ft high cube integral reefer straight off our service bench, offering roughly 67 m3 of temperature-controlled volume — the workhorse size for packhouses, abattoirs, distribution yards and central cold rooms. Before release the condenser and evaporator coils are cleaned, the refrigerant charge is verified, defrost operation is checked, door gaskets are replaced where compression has been lost and the unit is run for a full pull-down cycle with the graph retained for your file. Set points run from -25 degrees C to +25 degrees C on a 400 V three-phase supply, with a stainless T-bar floor so return air moves under a full pallet load and temperature stays even from the machinery end to the door end. The high cube shell also leaves headroom for double-stacked pallets. Because a 40ft reefer draws real current, we confirm your supply, breaker and cable route at quotation and can price the connection work as part of the order.

The shell is fabricated from Corten A weathering steel — a copper, chromium and nickel alloy that forms a tightly adherent oxide layer instead of the flaking scale you get on mild steel. That patina slows further corrosion, which is why a 25-year-old box can still be structurally sound while a painted mild-steel shed of the same age has perforated.
Side and end panels are 14-gauge (2.0mm) corrugated sheet welded to a rigid frame of rolled top and bottom rails with cast steel corner fittings on the ISO 1161 pattern. Roof panels are 2.0mm with an arch profile that shifts standing water toward the eaves. Flooring is 28mm marine-grade plywood over steel cross-members on nominal 300mm centres, rated for a 7 260 kg forklift axle load.
Expect surface oxidation on used grades: it is cosmetic. We reject units with through-plate pitting, cracked welds at the corner posts, or bowed rails, because those defects affect stacking strength and cannot be repaired economically in the field.
