FRIGOMATIC MILANO KEEL COOLED
12/24V DC compressor
Pre-charged with R134a refrigerant with resealing male and female quick couplings to
connect to the keel cooler condenser and aluminium evaporator.
Supplied as standard with both high and low pressure service valves.
3.1 - POSITION
When deciding on the location of the compressor please consider the following:
A.- The compressor can be located anywhere (within 1.5m of the keel cooler). It doesn't
need air circulation but only accessibility for maintenance.
B.- The compressor must be mounted horizontally on its base.
Fix with the pre-drilled holes in the stainless steel base.
Pay attention to leave enough space for the evaporator and keel cooler connections and
that there is good access to the electrical connections
It can be safely angled up to 30 degrees so no problem for sailing boats
Note: Bulkhead mounting bracket also available – contact
