Thanks for your correction.... The glycol/water system is left running after stopping the cargo compressor to provide both crank case heating and to remove cargo vapors.
Crank case heating is important to prevent the formation of condensation inside the compressor, which can cause corrosion and damage to the internal components. The glycol/water system is used to circulate heated fluid around the compressor to keep the crank case at a suitable temperature.
Additionally, the glycol/water system can also be used to remove cargo vapors that may still be present in the system after the compressor has stopped. This is important to prevent the buildup of potentially flammable or hazardous vapors, which could pose a safety risk.
In summary, the glycol/water system is left running after stopping the cargo compressor to provide both crank case heating and to remove cargo vapors.
