Description
This 35ltr fridge unit can be operated on mains power (240v) when this is available. 12v battery power can be used when on the move to maintain ambient temperature. Finished in silver grey with dark grey trim, it can be used to replace the traditional RM123 unit and comes with a door that can be hinged either left or right according to your preference. Features include an interior light which functions on 240v operation only; 2 interior wire shelves and door shelf storage . Please Note: This product works by using the Absorption Effect. It is NOT the same as the fridge in your kitchen at home that uses a compressor to produce the cooling effect. For use in a Camper / Motor Home or Caravan the absorption style fridge does have some advantages. It doesn’t have any moving parts, it is virtually silent whilst running and with fewer parts you get a larger chilled box for the same amount of space, and they are cheaper to purchase. However these advantages have to be weighed against the disadvantages. Absorption fridges can ONLY work whilst flat and level (this means you will have to use levelling blocks). Please note that if you have lowered the front of your vehicle more than the rear then an absorption fridge will NEVER work in your vehicle unless it is sat on levelling blocks. They also produce a lot of heat at the rear of the unit, and this heat MUST be allowed to ventilate away or it simply cannot produce its maximum cooling effect (external vents will have to be installed). When running on 12v the fridge will not be able to draw down the temperature, but simply maintain the pre-chilled level. Fitting one of these Fridges will need a little planning as regards supplying ventilation. But if you don’t mind this, pre-chilling before your trip and levelling your wagon once you have arrived at your destination you get a lot of fridge for the money. |
