Container Ship Slots
Mid or medium slots or are a category of module slot found on ships in EVE. Generally, mid slots contain activatable modules that may assist in tackling, propulsion, or generally improve the ships behavior. Shield tanking modules occupy mid slots. Some mid slot modules share purposes with low slots, but the details of their use differ.
These ships take up 3 fleet slots and were introduced on November 6th, 2018. Modern: These ships take up to 4 fleet slots and were introduced on March 17th, 2020. The second way is based on the utility of the ship: Scout or Explorer: These are ships which have an.
This page is a collection of all the types of modules that use mid slots.
Capacitor
These modules will restore capacitor energy.
- Slot Charter Agreement (SCA) is a contract between two partners/ shipping lines who buy and sell a specified number of slots for a certain period of time to widen coverage. Hapag-Lloyd, for example, is a slot charterer on the MSC service from South Africa to Europe, according to Shipping and Freight Resource, even though they have their own.
- Stresses of the ship to be taken into account SF, BM, TM not to be exceeded and within limits (as per company set standard) Stack weight- Stack weight is the weight that can be safely loaded on the deck, hatch cover, or tank top at the corner of the slots. Stack weighted should not be exceeded at any time.
- The term slot charter means a charter party whereby the shipper leases one or more “slots,” aboard a container ship. Each slot will be capable of holding a 20-foot container.
- Container ship capacities are stated in TEU, which stands for the number of slots for Twenty foot Equivalent Units. Divide that number by 2, and you get an idea about FEU, in theory. Because some bays on a ship may only be long enough for a 20′ container, the number would be normally not exactly half that of TEU, but less.
- Capacitor Batteries
- Passive module which increases total capacitor (and subsequently capacitor recharge rate, which is a percent of to total capacitor).
- Capacitor Boosters
- Active module which replenishes capacitor while expanding Cap Boosters.
- Capacitor Rechargers
- Passive module which increases capacitor recharge time.
Boosters are generally preferred for PvP ships since they work well against capacitor neutralizing. For your exact needs, experimenting a fitting tool will show which will serve you best.Compare to engineering rigs and low slot capacitor modules.
Damage application supplements
These modules will increase the ability to damage ships, though not necessarily the amount of damage dealt.
- Missile Guidance Computers

Compare to missile and turret rigs and low slot damage application modules
Drone supplements
These modules will increase the performance of drones.

- Drone Navigation Computers
- Active module which increases the microwarpdrive speed of drones, and the speed of carrier fighters. This is the speed when they are flying larger distances, not when they are orbiting and attacking a target.
Compare to low slot drone modules.

Built for the ground level domestic storage market, open sided shipping containers are a good alternative for customers that need special access to load and empty their containers from the side.
More secure and functional than an aftermarket side roll-up door, the accordion closet container doors will partially or fully open the entire side section of the container. Open-Sided Containers have the standard container doors on one end for regular container loading.
Open-sided Storage Containers are built in two sizes, 20’Open-sided (8’6″ tall) and 40′ High-Cube Open-sided (40HCOS). The 40′ units are built with the 1′ taller high-cube frame (9’6″ tall), whereas the 20′ units are built to the standard 8’6″ height.
Since the shipping lines do not use these open-sided container configurations in their shipping fleets there are no used open-sided units available for purchase. For a used unit with access to the side we recommend having one or more 6′ to 10′ steel roll-up door installed in a standard used shipping container.
Open-sided Storage containers are built at the factory in China and take 1-trip to the US for our domestic storage needs. They offer additional features that containers with roll-up side doors do not have, like opening the entire length of the side of the container or partially opening to the section of the container that you need to access.
20′ Open-Sided Storage Containers
The most common and smallest sized open-sided storage container available is the 20′ unit (20’OS). The side doors open in ~5′ sections until the entire side of the 20′ unit is open. You can choose to open, 5′, 10′, 15′ or the full 20′ side section. With multiple forklift pockets it makes the container easier to move around your site without damaging the unit.
What are the dimensions of a 20′ Open-sided container?
Exterior | Measurement | Interior | Measurement |
Length | 19′ 10″ 1/2 | Length | 19′ 4″ 13/64 |
Width | 8′ 0″ | Width | 7′ 6″ 3/64 |
Height | 8′ 6″ | Height | 7′ 6″ 33/64 |
Side Door Opening | Measurement | Container Weights | Measurement |
Width | 18′ 8″ 31/64 | Tare Weight | 7,000 lbs |
Height | 7′ 1″ 25/64 | Payload | 46,000 lbs |
40′ High-Cube Open-sided Storage Containers
The longest and tallest open-sided containers available are the 40′ high-cube containers (9’6″ tall). These units will partially or fully open the entire length of the unit. With the 40′ of side access built into these 40OS units you can easily store the widest or longest of products that would not normally fit into a 40′ container with only standard container doors.
The 40′ Opensided High-Cube containers are designed to open in 10′ door sections giving you the flexibility to access 10′, 20′ 30′ or the entire 40′ of the side of the container.

Exterior | Measurement | Interior | Measurement |

uses for open-sided storage containers
The majority of open sided container buyers are businesses, governmental organization and the military or anyone who needs to access their container from the side. Storage of snow plows, product wider than 7′ or a site that does not have access from the container ends. The open-sided containers are the most convenient, versatile and easiest units to load.

What Options are Available & Where are the Container Located?
Our open-sided units are produced in either Tan, Gray or Blue colors. Occasionally there are units built with doors on both ends of the open-sided containers. Unlike standard containers and because of the open-sided design with the one wall’s ability to move, there are no tie-downs on the walls to secure your goods, to overcome that problem there are fully recessable eye-hooks built into the floors.
Open-sided storage containers are located in most of the major shipping ports in the US and Giant Lock Box can arrange for transportation within the continental United States via tilt-bed trailers, Flatbed trucks and in some locations with crane-trucks.
