SELF CONTAINED MARINE AIR CONDITIONER WITH HEAT PUMP FUNCTION 12000BTU 12Vdc R134A 

CAN YOU RUN MARINE AIR CONDITIONING WITHOUT GENERATOR?

Dormaire 12V Marine Air Conditioners, use an inverter compressor with variable speed. This compressor type has a better efficiency and its power consumption upon start is reduced and without inrush current spikes.
As the air conditioner reaches the set point temperature in the room, the system will reduce its speed and power consumption, to extend battery life for hours without recharge. This way when the air conditioner is used during the night, as there isn't strong sunshine radiation, running times will extend.
This is the ideal air conditioning system for running on batteries as it doesn't need external power inverter to rise the battery voltage, it avoid power looses on the inverter system. Best of all, you will not need generator, avoiding annoying noises and smoke.

CAN I RUN MARINE AIR CONDITIONER ON AN INVERTER?

If you are thinking of buying a marine air conditioner with the intention of using it connected to the boat's batteries, you should know that using a conventional 230Vac machine connected via a power inverter isn't a feasible option. Isn't feasible economically because power consumption of a conventional machine is approximately three times that of our 12-volt inverter machines. To achieve the same hours of autonomy, the conventional machine will need triple the battery capacity. As the necessary batteries are lithium LiFePO4 and they are batteries with a high cost, the cost of the extra batteries needed would be greater than the difference in price between both machines. In addition, there would be the problem of the greater space required by the batteries and extra solar panels.

Reasons why the consumption of a conventional machine is approximately triple are:

1. The inverter compressor is more efficient than the conventional compressor
2. The 12-volt machines use a blower, also an inverter, which helps to improve efficiency
3. dc/ac converter isn't needed, thus avoiding the energy losses of these devices
4. With the 12v machine there aren't inefficiencies due to inrush current peaks at start-up.
