Deep and narrow by design, so the freezer takes as little as possible from your fridge space.
1.0 AH PER HOUR
Secop Danfoss BD35HD variable speed compressor keeps the average draw low enough for a modest battery bank.
7 YEAR COMPRESSOR WARRANTY
Backed by 7 years on the compressor and 3 years on the fridge, direct from Bushman.
REVERSIBLE DOOR, MOUNT KIT SUPPLIED
Hinge the door left or right to suit your layout. Full mounting kit and 1.2m Anderson lead included.
The Bushman DC65-X is the compact upright in Bushman's Heavy Duty DC-X range. 65 litres, in a cabinet 450mm wide by 525mm high, sized to fit into vans, camper trailers, canopies, boats and smaller caravans where a full-size fridge is too big. It draws around 1.0 amp hour per hour at 25°C ambient, averaged across a full day.
It runs a genuine Secop Danfoss BD35HD compressor, a 60W unit on a variable speed drive that ramps between roughly 2A and 4.5A depending on what the fridge actually needs rather than slamming on and off at full noise. It carries a Tropical 'T' rating and is rated to hold temperature in ambients up to 43°C.
Inside you get height-adjustable shelves, a crisper tub, and door balconies with rails to keep everything in place while you are moving. The door is reversible so you can hinge it to suit your layout.
A full mounting kit is supplied and the fridge comes with a 1.2 metre Anderson plug lead already fitted. It can be flush mounted into cabinetry or fitted with the door proud, and Bushman support four separate mounting methods: internal sleeves, the supplied mounting kit fascia, custom brackets on the M5 threaded inserts, or a Bushman DC65-X aluminium fridge box. Ventilation matters: 2 rear vents of 400cm² free area each. Wire it on its own dedicated circuit straight back to your battery bank.
