New Compact 3.5 Mini Marine Air-conditioner from Climma

Climma’s latest Marine Air Conditioner is possibly the smallest marine air conditioning unit ever built.  Extremely compact (H:241mm W:381mm D:204mm), the Compact 3.5 is water cooled  and suitable for cooling a small sleeping cabin (i.e. such as a V berth on a 30 to 38 footer).

Controlled using the new and updated digital Vega MK3 remote mount control panel – Provides full climate control with a 8 fan speed operation in Auto mode to ensure optimum comfort at minimum noise level. With an LED digital display showing temperature and fan speed and finger-tip dial adjustment.
Built and engineered to the highest standards by Veco in Italy the Compact 3.5 includes the following product highlights:

– High efficiency rotary compressor to ensure the lowest possible start and run currents, making it ideal to be powered through a small inverter – minimum power capacity of 500W.
– The quiet, yet powerful, 8 speed fan with a two position adjustable air outlet (horizontal to vertical).
– Cupronickel sea water heat exchanger to ensure maximum resistance to corrosion
– High efficiency, copper coil aluminium finned evaporator to provide cooling to the fan blower.
– Mounted on a marine grade stainless steel base to ensure a long lifetime of service and resistance to corrosion in the harsh marine environment.
– Built in plastic condensate tray supplied with angled and straight hose connectors.
– We recommend that the Frigoboat DC water pump A092819C is used to supply cooling water.

New VW T5 Conversion from Uberbus using Vitrifrigo C40L Top Loading 12/24 Volt fridge.

Why Fit a Top Loading 12 Volt Fridge
Uberbus specialise in the design and production of bespoke campervan interiors for VW Transporters. When designing the layout for their latest VW T5 conversion they decided to opt for a top loading 12 Volt fridge. For Clough Jones of Uberbus there were two key advantages in using a top opening fridge over a conventional front opening one:
“First, we saw big advantages to our design by accessing the fridge through the top of the work surface. Space is real a premium in a T5 conversion, so moving the fridge from the more traditional under sink position frees up valuable space for food and other storage and the top opening fridge has the added benefit that you can always get to the fridge easily, even when the bed is down.
Second, a top loading fridge is a really secure way to store your chilled food. Unlike a front opening 12 Volt fridge there is no risk of driving off with the door open, or catch undone and distributing the contents of the fridge liberally around the inside of the campervan!
We chose the Vitrifrigo C40L because we believe it will be more efficient than other makes of 12 volt fridge due to its aluminium finned cooling unit. Plus, dimensionally, it fits neatly within the width of work top and to cap it all there even a small ice box in the top to make ice cubes – a real bonus in a top loading fridge.”

More About the 12 Volt Fridge Installation
What Penguin Refrigeration like about this installation, apart from the neat styling and appearance, is the detail of the lid hinging. Using sprung loaded hinges, the Uberbus design neatly holds the fridge lid open and then allows it shut completely flush to the work top when closed. Once the hinges were sourced the installation of the fridge was relatively straight forward, mounted to a flange just under the work top with the Danfoss BD35 12 volt compressor sited immediately below. Ventilation to the compressor and cooling unit was provided by vents in base of the cabinet with the warm air then encouraged to dissipate out behind the work top and through the wardrobe beside. The 12 Volt power is through an 110 amp hour battery charged using a Raw component intelligent charging system, which provides enough power to run the fridge (at a temperature of +4°C), and run all the interior LED lighting, for at least 4 days.
Vitrifrigo 12 volt fridges and freezers are manufactured exclusively by Vitrifrigo in Italy and distributed in the UK by Penguin Refrigeration Ltd. For more details on the Uberbus Conversion visit http://uberbus.co.uk/Uberbus T5

New 12/24 Volt Fridges and Freezers at The Boat and Caravan Show 2011

Vitrifrigo’s new look, silver finish, 12/24 volt fridges will be displayed on the Penguin Refrigeration stand 4031 in Hall 4 of the Boat & Caravan Show 2011 – 21st to 27th Feb at the NEC Birmingham.

Following the positive feedback to the C85i, 90 litre 12 volt fridge, developed for Vantage Motorhomes last year Vitrifrigo have extended their range of silver fronted fridges to include their 39, 42, 51, 62 litre models. The new colour has been well received by Penguin’s existing customers as a far better match for the grey vohringer furniture boards, proving popular in current motorhome and campervan conversions.

The Penguin Refrigeration stand (4031) is located with the campervan and motorhomes in Hall 4. Penguin will be displaying a cross section of the extensive Vitrifrigo 12/24 volt fridge and freezer range with special offers on the most popular 12 volt fridges available during the show. Technical staff will also be on hand to assist in specifying the best 12 volt fridge for your campervan, motorhome or RV. The team are also qualified to answer your technical questions on power consumption, advise on how to set up your installation using solar power, vehicle alternator or hook up or other power charging systems.
