“Obtaining this EASA approval permits the use of the AcuTemp RKN by more customers throughout the world,” said Brian Kohr, general manager of CSafe, LLC. “We are very pleased to be able to provide our customers the ability to ship their temperature sensitive cargo through all air carriers governed by both the FAA and EASA, thus making the superior technology of the AcuTemp RKN available to companies worldwide” he added.
The recent addition of the EASA certification establishes the AcuTemp RKN as the first and only compressor driven cargo container to have certifications from both US and European agencies. The approval was issued to AmSafe Bridport Limited, a partner along with AcuTemp Thermal Systems, in the joint venture of CSafe, LLC.
“CSafe is now able to offer our customers the flexibility to broaden their shipping destinations around the globe,” said Steven Boyd, director of business development for CSafe, LLC. “This EASA approval strengthens the international presence of the CSafe solution and greatly expands customers’ options for temperature critical transportation,” said Boyd.
The AcuTemp RKN is designed to reduce the detrimental effects of damaged and compromised goods which often result from inadequate temperature management in conventional shipping modes. Since it began service in 2008, the AcuTemp RKN has consistently demonstrated its ability to maintain a customer-desired payload set-point resulting in no recorded product loss.
The AcuTemp RKN has both cooling and heating capabilities. The unit can sustain a consistent user-selected temperature between +4 and +25 degrees Celsius while being exposed to ambient temperatures as extreme as -30 to +49 degrees Celsius. The AcuTemp RKN has the ability to record payload, temperature, access and power status, and this data is accessible though a convenient USB port.
