Sun Frost RF19 Refrigerator
The Sun Frost RF19 solar refrigerator features the cooling system on its top. Due to this, the energy consumption of the refrigerator is reduced. It also avoids the heat, produced by condenser and compressor, from re-entering into the solar freezer cum refrigerator. The condenser improves the cooling efficiency of the refrigerator. The DC refrigerator also has a simple defrosting process.
As the Sun Frost RF19 solar refrigerator consumes low power, it requires less number of solar panels. When compared with a conventional refrigerator, the solar refrigerator produces less heat. At 12 volt DC, this half freezer and half refrigerator consumes 62 ampere hours at a temperature of 21 degrees Celsius, and 82 ampere hours at a temperature of 32 degrees Celsius, on a daily basis. The solar refrigerator cum freezer, available from Self-Reliant Living, measures 66 inches in height, 34.5 inches in width and 27.75 inches in depth.
