Designed and developed in South Africa, SnoMaster Portable Fridges are some of the toughest available and  deliver unrivalled performance and energy efficiency. All fridges in the SnoMaster range use the world famous SnoMaster 66 Watt Compressor, which when combined with high density Polyurethane insulation encased in the stainless steel body gives these fridge freezers the edge.

SnoMaster Expedition Series

The SnoMaster Expedition Series of portable fridge/freezers provide outstanding performance off-grid when power consumption is a more critical factor.  The are sizes from 66L to 95L and single or dual zone options. All of the products in the SnoMaster Expedition Series range have 70 mm high pressure injected Polyurethane insulation in the walls & doors of the units encased in high quality stainless steel bodies.  The SnoMaster compressor feeds the copper coils that run throughout the walls and floor, which in conjunction with the thicker insulation, results in less cycling of the compressor and excellent energy saving. The hinges & handles are all stainless steel, the transit bag is included and there is a fully functional remote control.  Click the button below to heck out the full technical specs for each model in the Classic Series range.

SnoMaster Classic Series

The SnoMaster Classic Series range of portable fridge freezers are ideal for general off road, touring and camping use.  The range has sizes from 60L to 80L capacity and single or dual zone options. All of the products in the SnoMaster Classic Series range have 60 mm high pressure injected Polyurethane insulation in the walls of the units encased in high quality stainless steel bodies.  The SnoMaster compressor feeds the copper coils that run throughout the walls and floor, which in conjunction with the insulation, results in less cycling of the compressor and great energy saving.  The hinges & handles are all stainless steel, the transit bag is included and there is a fully functional remote control.  Click the button below to heck out the full technical specs for each model in the Classic Series range.

SnoMaster Traveler Series

The SnoMaster Traveller Series of portable fridge freezers has been designed as a more compact solution to meet your refrigeration needs.   There are two units in the range, the 42L Single Zone (55mm insulation) and the 82L Dual Zone (60/45mm insulation). The high pressure injected Polyurethane insulation in the walls, floor and doors is encased in the high quality stainless steel cabinet. The SnoMaster compressor feeds the copper coils that run throughout the walls and floor, which in conjunction with the insulation, results in less cycling of the compressor. The hinges & handles are all stainless steel, the transit bag is included and there is a fully functional remote control.  Click the button below to heck out the full technical specs for each model in the Traveller Series range.

SnoMaster Low Profile Series

The Low Profile Series range has sizes from 61 to 92.5LL capacity in single or dual zone configuration. To achieve the large capacity in a low profile format the high pressure injected Polyurethane insulation varies in thickness depending on the model.  The copper cooling coils in the walls and floor of the units are encased in high quality stainless steel cabinet. The SnoMaster compressor can run off 12V, 24V or 240V and has a comprehensive 7 year warranty backed by a nationwide support network.  The units also have a programmable low voltage cut off function that can be set at 10V, 10.7V or 11.8V providing ultimate protection for your battery Click the button below to heck out the full technical specs for each model in the Low Profile Series range.

What Makes SnoMaster Special?

SnoMaster 66W Compressor

There are lots of compressors used in the portable refrigeration market; most ‘rebranded’ fridges use a SECOP BD35 compressor, Engel has a Sawafuji unit, and WAECO fridge utilises a WAECO-branded compressor. SnoMaster was not satisfied with the performance of any of these compressors in terms of being able to quickly and efficiently cool large capacity fridges/freezers in climates with higher ambient temperature ranges.

All fridges in the SnoMaster range use SnoMaster’s own custom designed 66W compressor. This is the largest capacity compressor in use in the portable refrigeration market today and incorporates design features that enable it to effectively handle high ambient temperatures and dual zone cooling requirements. The compressor can run off 12V,110V,220V and 240V as required and comes with a 7 year warranty.

The SnoMaster compressor has three operating speeds; on High Speed (3,500 rpm) the compressor will rapidly draw down the temperature of a fridge cabinet to required operating temperature, while the Low Speed (2,400 rpm) option can be used once the fridge is as the desired temperature. Of course there is an Auto option which allows the fridges intelligent management system to select the best operating speed for the conditions. The compressor also has a Slow Start function which protects the compressor and electronic components from shock loads during start up.

Based on an ambient temperature of 32 degrees Celsius and operating on 12V, the compressor draws 5.5 amps when operating at High Speed and 2.5 Amps on Low Speed and typically 4.5 amp when on Auto. All of the fridges in the SnoMaster range have a low voltage cut out option which can be set at 10V, 10.7V or 11.8V providing ultimate protection for your dual batteries. Once the Low Voltage cut out has been triggered, the compressor will not restart until the voltage in the connected battery reached above 12.6V, this gives your battery a chance to recover..

Insulation & Wall Thickness

Because all Snomaster Fridges are encased in high quality food grade stainless steel, the additional strength that this provides mean that the walls, lids and central dividers can be injected during manufacturing with a high density Polyurethane insulation which provides some of the highest thermal resistance properties per inch of all commercially available insulation products.

The thicknesses of the walls in the SnoMaster fridge range varies based on the series of the fridge. The Traveller Series has 55mm thick insulation, the Classic Series has 60mm thick insulation and the Expedition Series fridges all have 70mm thick insulation.

Fridge Controls

All of the fridges in the SnoMaster range have a fully integrated digital display control panel from which all aspects of the fridges operation can be managed.  On most models this control panel can also be relocated from the side to the front of the fridge.  Conveniently, SnoMaster also supplies a handheld wireless remote control unit with all fridges which can also be used to monitor fridge performance and manage all of the fridges functions. The remote control unit can be recharged via a USB cable and also has a handy solar panel on the back which can be used to recharge the controller.
