Intended use
The cooling unit is suited for building your own refrigerator or cooler.
The cooler unit is suitable for cooling and freezing food. The device
is also suitable for use on boats.
If you wish to cool medicines, please check if the cooling capacity
of the device is suitable for the medicine in question.

Technical description
COOLMATIC cooling units are suitable for use with 12 V or 24 V DC voltage
and can therefore be used for camping or on boats. Furthermore, you can
connect them to a 230 V mains supply via the MOBITRONIC rectifiers
(see “Accessories” on page 30).
When used on boats, the cooling unit can withstand a constant heeling of 30°.
This refrigerant circuit is CFC-free.
The cooling unit must be used together with a vaporiser. In addition, you can
use an accumulator with or without TEC control.
Use the continuously variable thermostat on the vaporiser to set the desired
temperature.
The accumulator and TEC program control ensure a high cooling capacity
and improve the unit’s efficiency. The accumulator is charged when there is
a sufficient supply of power (for example when powered by a mains adapter).
In battery mode, the coolant is drawn from the accumulator until it is empty.
Thus, no power is taken from the battery during this time.
The TEC program control always ensures that
z
Cold energy is stored if there is excess electrical energy (external supply
of power by a generator).
z
Stored cold energy can be discharged as long as there is sufficient supply
of electrical energy.
z
Stored cold energy is automatically retrieved to preserve the interior
cooling temperature of the cooling area, once the battery capacity is
exhausted.
