In-transit Monitoring

• APL monitors the refrigeration unit regularly to make sure that it is running properly - when it enters and leaves the container yard, when it enters the railhead, at the ocean terminal and on board the vessel.
  
• During distribution, APL personnel routinely check the decal on the front of the container against the temperature and fresh-air exchange settings. Our specially trained personnel are quick to spot discrepancies and correct problems should they occur.
  
• A technician regularly checks a container's settings to make sure they are within prescribed limits. After checking the container settings, the information is recorded in a log to provide an ongoing record of readings for quality control purposes.
