The Thermo King SB-400 is a 7 kW self-contained container reefer unit that provides temperature control for standard 20‑ft and 40‑ft refrigerated containers, using R-404A refrigerant. As a Container Reefer Unit, it is normally installed in an accommodation, machinery or technical HVAC space connected to ductwork, refrigerant, chilled water, heating or electrical services as applicable. In that role, its primary purpose is to move, cool, heat, filter or condition air for occupied and technical ship spaces. Split units, air-handling units, fan coils, chillers and ventilation fans differ in refrigeration and air-distribution arrangement, so the installed configuration determines the service points. Power: 7 kW; capacity: -30°C to +30°C, 40ft container. For exact ratings, dimensions, settings, capacities, materials and variant-specific limits, refer to the manufacturer documentation for the exact figure.

For marine equipment hardly any maker or authorised dealer will name a price while the vessel is unknown. With the vessel details, availability and price can be settled faster; without them we may have to ask first, which costs a few days. If you are not allowed to name the vessel, a photo of the rating plate is enough — attach it below or send it as a reply to our confirmation e-mail.
