Abstract

The invention relates to a transportable refrigerating container in which the atmosphere is passed over a circulating device containing separating means for water and gases, in particular molecular sieves, and refrigerating and humidifying means. For adjusting the temperature to stored goods by means of a control unit, the invention provides for a blower (26) in the interior of the refrigerating container (1) to blow the atmosphere discharged from the circulating plant (4, 5, 6, 10) via the refrigerating means (11) and the humidifying means (12) in the direction of the goods stored, for the control unit (13) to be connected to all the measuring sensors (14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20) covering the individual operating parameters and to be provided with a memory unit for the set values of the operating parameters and an input unit responding to insertable data carriers for data to be externally entered and for the control unit (13) to be connected to all the switching and control means of the refrigerating container (1) and to switch the circulating plant (4, 5, 6, 10) on for determined periods on detecting deviations of operating parameters from set values.
