Tundra's New Line of
Refrigerators and Freezers
Taylor Made Environmental has introduced a
new family of refrigerators and freezers for RVs, trucks and other vehicles. The product
line, which is marketed under the Tundra brand name, includes a wide selection of portable
top-loading and built-in refrigerators, freezers and combination units. They are being
offered to OEMs and are being sold to the aftermarket through select dealers.
Interior volumes range from 0.9 to 5.8 cu. ft. All of the
products use environmentally friendly R134A refrigerant, and all are built with quiet,
Danfoss compressors. The unique Tundra design utilizes a dynamic condensing system that
circulates air across the condenser, providing more efficient heat transfer, according to
the manufacturer. The exterior is steel with a durable protective coating. The inside is
high-impact polystyrene, which provides low maintenance and easy cleaning, with a generous
layer of urethane insulation. Built-in protections include a high-temperature cutout at
125°F, and a low-voltage cutout to safeguard the vehicle's batteries.
Standard models run on 12 or 24 volts with automatic
selection, providing excellent cooling and freezing efficiency with no energy loss to
transformers. An optional power conversion kit is available for 115 or 230 volt
applications.
