SHIPPING LINE COLD TREATMENT CONFIRMATION
OVERVIEW OF SEASON
late/no booking – not on working program
incorrect booking – not al relevant info on PPECB booking
containers booked on day of loading – after hour loading during week
cold store temperatures – boarder line, far to cold or incorrect download info
cold store system problems – temperature printout at time of loading/mates receipt with incorrect totals
turn-around time of containers – waiting on containers/over time
incorrect set point – delayed
incorrect ventilation settings
pre-releasing of containers – PTI expired, day or two
OVERVIEW OF SEASON
missing PTI stickers – delayed
damage to the sidewall of container – no proper gate-out checks
containers not pre-cooled – CTO indicate gensets to be switched on
shipping line down loads – not received in time
loading last day of stack closed – time constrains
confirm starting of portable recorders – Cold store operator/PPECB assessor both to verify
PLUM EXPORTS
Need a control system the manage the step-up PD5: minus 0.5/2d plus 7.5/5d minus 0.5 degree C,
Carry at minus 0.5; 2 days after departure increase the temperature to plus 7.5; after 5 days at 7.5 (i.e. 7 days after departure) lower the temperature to minus 0.5 and maintain until discharge
Risk for exporter in the transhipment Port Possible option to change set point regime code from minus 0.5 to
minus 0.4 degree C Possible option to clearly identify the containers with a bright
sticker
