-
- Experience the most efficient type of refrigerators available
- Drastically cut your power use!
- Save your battery power
- Refrigeration is one of the highest energy use appliances in the home.
- Suitable for low-energy homes, for mobile use, motor homes and houseboats
- Sizes 100 litres up to 315 litres.
Good quality, highly efficient 12-volt and 24-volt DC refrigerators.
- Run directly from 12-volt or 24-volt batteries, or from a 48-volt battery bank using our adaptor
- Run from solar panels, or from the mains using the optional transformer
- DC has the advantage of running directly from a battery, thus eliminating inverter inefficiencies of 5% to 25%
- The electronics have over and under-voltage protection, thermal protection and pressure protection (in case the unit is disconnected and then reconnected whilst running)
- Because of its efficiency, it takes the seasonal changes in solar-power systems to its full advantage. i.e. In the summer, when the days are longer and more solar power is available, the fridge may run longer because the weather is hotter. In winter the reverse occurs
- The performance is similar to normal 240-volt fridges, yet they consume a fraction of the power.
