Application Description
The tested refrigerator is the Slim70 from IndelB’s new OFF line. It has a 70-liter capacity, an LED display with Power Saving and Silent Night modes, a reversible door with a customizable panel, and a locking handle for ventilation when off. Its easy-fix system allows for quicker and simpler installation compared to traditional methods.
One of the main challenges with RV compressors is minimizing battery consumption; however, newer, highly efficient DC compressors can drastically reduce power draw.
Advantages of Secop's BD Nano Compressor
- Compact design: Maximizes fridge capacity
- Innovative components and engineering: Deliver low power consumption
- Sustainability: Uses a natural refrigerant (isobutane R600a) with low Global Warming Potential (GWP)
- Advanced motor: Enables rapid cooling
- Consistent performance: Operates reliably in all ambient temperatures, including tropical conditions
Benefits of the Implemented Solution
The BD Nano is the smallest compressor on the market, at only 93 mm high and weighing 1.5 kg. Despite its compact size, it provides powerful cooling for fridges up to 150 liters. Key innovations include compact mufflers that reduce size, weight, and noise, a "mobile stability" concept for durability, and a miniaturized motor with an extended speed range. Its advanced electronic controller complies with strict automotive electromagnetic interference standards. The compressor offers a cooling capacity of up to 68 W and an efficiency of 1.54 W/W (ASHRAE LBP).
