When masterpieces by artists like Sidney Nolan, Arthur Boyd or Russell Drysdale move around Victoria and interstate, they need a controlled, protected environment to move in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Enter Heuch, specialist refrigeration and process cooling engineers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ngv.vic.gov.au\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">National Gallery of Victoria<\/a> commissioned Heuch to develop a vehicle for transporting paintings and artifacts between galleries and storage sites. The quest was for accurate and stable control of climate, irrespective of the prevailing weather. \u201cThey are displayed or stored in controlled conditions, so to maintain their longevity, they need the same within the vehicle. We needed to reproduce the same climate they are stored in and be able to maintain that on an overnight stop or whilst they are travelling. We are expecting the transport to be within Victoria, New South Wales, or to South Australia, but it could actually be anywhere in Australia\u201d said Steve Oakley, Heuch Managing Director.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"title-30\">The Result<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>A refrigerated body on a Mitsubishi FK 617 LS1V, a 250HP turbo charge intercooled 7.5l diesel with a six speed transmission. To ensure stable control of climatic conditions internally, even overnight, the body was fitted with a Tieman power tailgate and insulated barn doors. The body itself is fiberglass with a 75mm insulation all round. To smooth out the ride, the suspension was converted from springs at rear to airbag and airbag assist on the front.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIt has some basic components form our range of transport equipment\u201d Oakley said, with some additions and modifications, the unit has an on board controller and digital display. It also retransmits to the driver\u2019s cabin, which tells him the temperature and humidity in the vehicle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It also has a logging function, so it logs current temperature and humidity and also performs fault logging. This ensures that if Heuch need to check later on, they can simply plug a computer into the controls and work out what was going on at the time of fault and ensure rapid fault response ensues. \u201cWe can also do remote site diagnosis by modem. That means, no matter where it is in Australia, we can dial in and see what is going on\u201d Oakley said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The refrigeration system is fully sealed, or hermetic, running on 415 volt AC. It includes an electronically controlled condenser air-flow regulator to prevent over cooling while operating on the road. In this system, the condenser fans run continuously, while the amount of air available is metered as required. This allows for the refrigeration system to operate within a stable environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIt also has a special humidification system we developed. That\u2019s because it is an enclosed space, so if you go on traditional methods, it\u2019s very difficult to control, you\u2019re either putting in too little or too much, we needed something we could control precisely, so we developed a system that allows us to do that.\u201d Oakley said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThat exceeded expectations actually, we\u2019re very happy with that \u2013 we were controlling temperature to within half a degree and humidity within 3% and 4%.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The unit has two operating modes \u2013 \u2018electric standby\u2019 when it is plugged in to a power source and \u2018on road\u2019 which is provided by an underslung diesel generator which is a variant of the type Heuch use for defence work. The diesel generator has its own independent controller which monitors all functions including water temperature, oil pressure, over and under speed and glow plugs. The unit is on the road and operating at optimal levels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cOur ordinary course of business is often the extraordinary, but we also have regular business like refrigeration equipment and water chillers\u201d Oakley said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.heuch.com.au\/staging\/industries\/transport\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Check out our full range of transport solutions here.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cool Art To ensure the longevity of paintings, sculptures and other artifacts, they are stored and displayed in an environment where humidity and temperature are controlled; the requirements are the same in transport.
