Product Description

The Dometic Mobicool FR40 AC/DC Cooler is a great updated compressor cooler/freezer box that can fed off a car cigarette lighter giving excellent performance that can quickly reach temperatures well below zero °C. It features an adjustable temperature range with rapid cooling from + 10°C to -10°C. It has an easy to operate digital display and temperature monitor with large inner volume and compact overall weight.

Using the power of compressor cooling technology, the Mobicool FR40 achieves its target temperature with speed. Conveniently adjust the temperature between +10 °C and –10 °C with an easy to use operating interface and digital temperature monitor. Compact for easy transport and storage.

The Mobicool FR40 has an adjustable temperature range of +10 °C to –10 °C and a rapid achievement of its target temperature. The easy to use interface and digital temperature monitor enable convenient cooling at a precise temperature. With a storage capacity of 38 l, there is sufficient room to store 1.5 l bottles stood upright. A fully hermetic, compact compressor unit delivers outstanding cooling performance while an interior LED light and detachable lid boost user convenience further. The FR40's compact footprint and height make the electric cool box suitable for use in tight spaces, such as a converted van, or simply for loading it into the crowded boot of your car!

This versatile cool box is a great size that makes carrying, loading and transporting easy.

THIS COOLBOX USES COMPRESSOR TECHNOLOGY

What is the difference between the cooling technologies?
ABSORPTION COOLING
Details of distinguishing features:

Gas-powered cooling independent of electricity
Three way cooling – Gas, 12 volts DC or 230 volts AC
Silent operation
Cooling performance depending on the ambient temperature

The Technical Bit
A concentrated ammonia solution is heated in a boiler and expelled as vapour. The pressurised ammonia gas is then liquefied in a condenser. Supplied with hydrogen, it evaporates and in the process extracts heat from the storage container. The ammonia gas then enters the absorber where it is reabsorbed in a weak solution of ammonia. Finally, the saturated solution flows back to the boiler where the whole cycle starts again.

THERMOELECTRIC TECHNOLOGY
Details of distinguishing features:

12 / 24 / 230 Volt
Independent of inclination
Lightweight and low-cost
Cooling performance depending on the ambient temperature

The Technical Bit
The thermoelectric principle was discovered by J. C. A. Peltier, which is why the temperature generating parts of thermoelectric systems are referred to as Peltier elements. Thermoelectrics are based on the fact that cold or heat energy (depending on the polarity) is generated when a DC current is conducted between different types of metal. The heating or cooling capacity is further enhanced by heat exchangers and air fans. Ideal for low and medium cooling volumes.

COMPRESSOR TECHNOLOGY
Details of distinguishing features:

Excellent cooling performance even at extreme ambient temperatures
Refrigeration and deep-freezing
12 / 24 / 100 – 240 volts
Low power consumption – suitable for solar operation
Battery protection
Quiet operation with little vibration
Independent of inclination

The Technical Bit
Compressor units operate using a refrigerant that changes from liquid to gaseous state in the evaporator. The evaporation extracts heat from the interior of the cooling unit – the temperature drops. The compressor draws in the refrigerant, compresses it and passes it on to the condenser. Here, the absorbed heat is released to the atmosphere. The refrigerant liquefies again and flows to the evaporator, where the cycle begins again.
