Product details

The Rencool RDK4 packages an electric compressor, condenser and key refrigeration hardware inside a rugged stainless-steel enclosure. It gives system builders a compact outdoor module for 12, 24 or 48 V split air-conditioning projects from 1.6 to 4.0 kW.

Enclosed compressor module simplifies custom split-system layouts.

Multiple DC voltage options suit vehicles, equipment and off-grid power systems.

Stainless construction and protected airflow hardware support demanding installations.

Why specify the RDK4

Choose the RDK4 when the evaporator must be mounted separately inside a cabin or enclosure while the noisy, heat-rejecting equipment remains outside. The compact module supports primary cooling, secondary cooling and anti-idle applications where installation space is limited.

Common applications

  • Work vehicles, trucks and service bodies
  • Mining, construction and agricultural equipment
  • Marine cabins and specialist transport
  • Battery-powered and anti-idle HVAC conversions
  • Communications, electrical and instrumentation enclosures
