REFRIGERATION

We handle Isotherm, Nova Kool and Evakool brands of refrigeration. Our experience of selling hundreds of these units is that these brands handle the tough Australian climate in tough conditions – both in the harsh marine environment at angles of up to 30 degrees, and in caravans, campers, recreational and RV vehicles on the road in tough outback environments. These units are reliable and can be set up to run from both AC and DC voltage.

Isotherm refrigerators are the product of careful research that combines technological innovation with sophisticated, yet practical design. Marine refrigerators operate under tough conditions: they must withstand violent movement, operate noiselessly, be thoroughly reliable – and perhaps most important of all – consume an absolute minimum of battery power. It is Isotherms mission to design and build high-quality and energy-efficient marine refrigeration systems elusively for sailing yachts, motor cruisers, motorhomes and caravans. Only quality and purpose-designed refrigeration equipment can achieve the high level of reliability required. Leaders in the field of marine refrigeration, Isotherm by Indel Marine has developed the innovative ITC, Automatic Start Up system that dramatically improves the efficiency of yacht refrigeration systems. Isotherm leads development in on board cooling!

Isotherm Intelligent Temperature Control – The ITC Digital Display (Intelligent Temperature Control) clearly shows, controls and regulates the temperature in a refrigerated compartment from the exterior of a fridge/freezer cabinet, while significantly reducing the on-board power consumption. The ITC Digital Display in conjunction with a Holding Plate forms a cooling unit called ITC+, where the storing energy effect is amplified thanks to the huge range of plates available.

The ITC Digital Display clearly shows, controls and regulates temperature in a refrigerated compartment from the exterior of a fridge/freezer cabinet. It is dedicated to people who desire a nice-looking interface and a refined product interaction, as well as reduce on board power consumption. Thanks to the presence of an air sensor in the cabinet, the electronic control unit detects the actual air temperature and processes that in combination with the user selected settings, in order to define the compressor operation. Remote product interaction is extremely easy and accurate since data readings appear on the display, like temperature set or detected, selection of energy saving operations, compressor’s operation mode settings, (ITC, Eco and Overcooling mode) and choice of 3 battery protection levels. Product integration is simple, since the device is compatible with control units Indel Webasto Marine P/N SEG00002DA and SEG00030GA (respectively Secop versions 101N0212 and 101N0510 for BD35/50F) allowing a recess flush installation and a wall mounted. In combination with the Isotherm holding plates, it becomes ITC+, joining the benefits of the advanced system logic to the energy storing effect. ITC+, the unbeatable combination.

Isotherm Refrigeration Hot Tips

• If possible minimize the load on the refrigerator when the engine is not running by loading in food stuffs that are already chilled.
• Because cooling generates heat, good ventilation of the compressor compartment is essential for air cooled systems. If the temperature in the vicinity of the compressor rises above +40°C, ventilation needs to be improved to allow cool air (preferably from the bilge where the air is coolest) to enter at the bottom and the warm air to leave at the top. A few holes the size of a large coin are usually sufficient. All air-cooled Isotherm units with holding plates are equipped with a fan which speeds up the air flow.
• If you have chosen sea water cooled Isotherm SP or Magnum model, high temperature inside the boat is immaterial.
• When the refrigerator is not in use – even for a short period – always leave the door or lid slightly open to avoid unpleasant odours.
• The condensation drain in the box should always be closed when the refrigerator is in operation otherwise the heavier cold air will run out at the bottom to be replaced by lighter warm damp air from the boat.
• It is uneconomical to turn off the refrigerator during the night. In addition to an increase in average power consumption when it is started up again, it is also harmful for the food.
