Used Danfoss BD35 air cooled compressor complete with virtually new Frigoboat, 130F bendable evaporator (24.75"w x 8.25"h Bendable Flat Plate) and custom made bracket for siting unit on bulkhead. Can be shown working - £350 ono.

.

Additional pictures can be provided on request.

The Compressor and Evaporator are pre-charged with r134a and have Frigoboat couplings for easy installation and removal.

The system has been fully checked by professional marine refrigeration engineers (Penguin Refrigeration) who have carried out a full service including vacuum pump, pressure test and r134a charge.

The unit is in very good condition, the evaporator plate is hardly used and alone retails for £200. The compressor and condensing fins are in very good condition.

I am including a custom made bracket for siting the unit on a bulkhead but you may need a base plate made of ply or metal which will be easy and straightforward. I am including an electronic thermostat (a mechanical Frigoboat one is about £25).

Please note that the Frigoboat couplings, condenser, and evaporator are of superior quality to other systems which is reflected in the retail price of these units compared to budget systems; this Frigoboat system would retail at over £700 depending on the condenser. The large L plate capable of chilling up to 160 Litres) retails at £200.

The cheaper units have aluminium pipes or different evaporators and condenser.

I am asking for £350 ono. Collection only from Portsmouth.

I would suggest 6mm2 or larger wiring to avoid issues in the future with voltage drop, where if your batteries are a bit tired or low, the voltage will fall below the low voltsge cut out and you will find the fridge not starting or cutting out.

In terms of wiring i would suggest following the same as other systems; fuse, switch (board), fridge.

Many fridge problems are voltage/wiring/corrosion on wiring relates.
