Door Dimensions: 0.80 m x 2.10 m    (clear opening).

PENETRATIONS:

External boundaries penetrations for refrigerant Piping, Ductwork and cables in compliance to SOLAS requirements.

PAINTING:

Category C-5M.

THERMAL INSULATION:

Thermal insulation performed in order to reduce the heat transmission factor and to get protection against the fire. The whole cabin can be certified A0 fire class (SOLAS), or A60, depending of type of insulation installed.

External boundaries walls and roof insulated by a layer of 60mm thk. Stone wool plus alu-foil.

Bottom insulated by the application of stone-wool panels (in double layer) having 30+30mm thk., 140Kg/m³ density, covered by galvanized steel plate in double layer thk. 2mm.

INTERIOR & FURNISHING:

FLOORING:

Layer of marine approved screed laid in order to level the deck, plus a layer of resin floor of 1.5mm (average thickness) finished by anti-slip coating. All flooring is flame retardant to meet SOLAS requirements.

LINING:

Internal walls constructed in accordance with SOLAS regulations (B-15 class). Modular panel MED Approved, joined by means of a built-in joining system. Panel’s thickness: 25mm. Wide range of colors.

CEILING:

Self-suspended ceiling of sandwich construction designed for easy and rapid installation. SOLAS class B-15, MED certificates, thickness 50mm. Wide range of colors.

FURNITURE:

Set of shelves made in stainless steel 18/10 suitable for food storage.

Five step aluminum ladder provided for reaching the upper part of the shelves.

One Freezer with capacity of approx. 500lt (marine heavy-duty type).
