Title: vendo 81 and vendo 110 refrigeration swap
Post by: TheGarbageHunter on November 18, 2012, 01:14:42 pm
Does any one know if the refrigeration system for a vendo 110 will directly without in modifications drop into a vendo 81?

Is it the same system and size???

Thanks in advance!!!

In a Word, No. not really, you can make it fit though.  a V83 & V110 (and the vertical 6-case) all use the same basic "form-factor" for their refrigeration systems.  the V81 could possibly use the later model deck out of a square-cornered V81 and the V90

Hmmmm.

Has anyone ever placed a vendo 63 cooling system into a vendo 81?

Was it a direct drop and play type of swap?

a V63 should fit to, mind which side of the door the refer' lines swing up into the bottle tanks area.

      Early 110's had the same evaporator as the 83, sort of box shaped.

      Later 110's had the same system as 81 but used 2 brackets below the compressor plate to fit.

So it sounds like the vendo 110 and 81 have the same system.

Thanks for your help.

In case it does not work what are new cooling system for a vendo 81 go for.

Thanks

So all you have to do is buy an another machine with a 50+ year old compressor & you're set. problem solved...PS that is a 6-case pictured not a V110. Pictures shown are for reference only, Your application may vary, for external use only,  some assembly required, batteries not included.

I'd say give Eric at Global compressors a call for pricing.

By the way, is you machines refrigeration unit completely missing or just DOA?

Square Top 81s use a different evaporator than a roundtop 81. a square top 81 is like a roundtop 56 the evap line runs on the wrong side.
