Technical Specification
Substantial energy and fuel savings can be achieved when using Back-Stop™ and the flexibility and simple functionality of the system provides easy access during loading and unloading whilst still retaining the required temperature with the vehicle rear doors open.
SMI’s Tempro® Back-Stop™ is an insulated door curtain system based on SMI’s original development for supermarket cold rooms and freezer. Which save 25% in chillers and an amazing 33.3% in freezers.
The Back-Stop™ system consists of four movable insulated Tempro® Curtains, two suspended on the front rail and two on the back rail, all fitted on one SMI sliding bar mounted below the truck ceiling. All four Tempro® curtains are fitted with a window made from clear cold safe PVC to allow outside light into the freezer or chiller space when the curtains are closed.
The curtains can be moved by hand to any position on their track as required. The curtains are held in position, open or closed, by a magnet and can be released back into their position by a pull handle
