The Waeco WCR 60 is a 12V and 24V compressor fridge freezer built for campervans, motorhomes and van conversions. It offers 55 litres of total storage, including a 6.1 litre freezer compartment, within a flush-mounted unit measuring 448mm wide, 535mm high and 537mm deep. Van builders and tourers choose it for its organised shelving, crisper drawers and proper frozen storage in a compact under-counter footprint.

How much power does the Waeco WCR 60 use in a campervan?


The WCR 60 uses 0.33 kWh over 24 hours, tested to IEC 62552, with an average power input of 50 watts. On a 12V system this works out at roughly 27Ah per day, so a 100Ah leisure battery paired with a modest solar panel keeps it running comfortably off grid.

Inside, the layout mirrors a domestic fridge. Adjustable shelves, a bottle holder, a door tray and crisper drawers keep food organised on the move, while an integrated LED light bar brightens the interior. The compressor runs in two modes, Performance for powerful cooling and Quiet for low-noise operation overnight, with the cooling level set on a control panel inside the cabinet. Fruit and vegetables stay at the right temperature in the crispers, and the freezer compartment handles frozen food on longer trips.

Fitting is straightforward in campervan and motorhome kitchen units. The fridge sits flush-mounted inside the cabinet, weighs 15.5kg and runs on R600a refrigerant, a gas with a low global warming potential. The matte black door panel lifts off for replacement, so the front matches your interior, and a dual-function door lock doubles as a vent for off-season storage. Its 448mm width and 537mm depth match the Dometic NRX60, which helps anyone swapping an existing under-counter fridge.

Frequently Asked Questions


How much battery power does the Waeco WCR 60 use per day?
Tested to IEC 62552, the WCR 60 uses 0.33 kWh over 24 hours with an average power input of 50 watts. On a 12V system this works out at roughly 27Ah per day, so a standard 100Ah leisure battery supported by solar comfortably covers daily running off grid.
Does the Waeco WCR 60 run on mains electricity at a campsite?
The fridge runs on 12V or 24V DC. On campsite hook-up, a mains adaptor converts 230V power for the fridge, and units such as the Dometic MPS 35 are commonly paired with this model. Most campervans route hook-up power through a battery charger and leisure battery instead, which powers the fridge continuously.
What is the difference between Performance and Quiet mode on the WCR 60?
Performance mode runs the compressor at full output for powerful cooling, useful after loading a warm shop or in hot weather. Quiet mode lowers operating noise for overnight use. Both modes are selected on the control panel inside the cabinet alongside the cooling level.
How cold does the Waeco WCR 60 get?
The WCR 60 cools across a range from 7°C down to -12°C. The main 55 litre compartment holds fresh food at standard fridge temperatures while the 6.1 litre freezer compartment keeps frozen food below zero. The cooling level is adjusted on the interior control panel.
Is Waeco the same company as Dometic?
Waeco is part of the Dometic Group portfolio. The German brand built its reputation in mobile refrigeration over five decades, and the WCR 60 carries Waeco branding while sitting alongside Dometic's campervan refrigeration ranges, including the NRX compressor fridge series.
What cabinet space does the Waeco WCR 60 need?
The fridge measures 448mm wide, 535mm high and 537mm deep and is flush-mounted inside the kitchen cabinet. Its width and depth match the Dometic NRX60, which makes it a strong candidate for under-counter apertures built around fridges of this class. Allow ventilation space in line with the installation manual.
Will the Waeco WCR 60 work while driving?
Yes. The fridge runs from the vehicle's 12V or 24V DC supply, so it keeps cooling on the move when wired to the leisure battery. Compressor cooling performs consistently in warm conditions, with the WCR 60 rated to climatic class ST.
What is the dual-function door lock on the WCR 60 for?
The door lock secures the door during travel and doubles as a vent position for storage. Leaving the door ajar on the vent setting allows air to circulate inside the fridge over winter, which prevents stale odours and moisture build-up when the campervan is laid up off-season.
