Nomadic Cooling – X3 Air Conditioner – 24-Volt

Original price was: $4,385.00 – $4,584.00.Current price is: $3,699.00.

The latest generation Nomadic X3 rooftop air conditioner is a work of art and engineering and the go-to for overlanders, RV’ers, van campers, and anyone looking to go further in comfort.

Limited time offer: FREE exterior cover (photo).

Also available in 12-volt and 48-volt versions.

Like its predecessors, this energy-efficient, battery-powered, DC air conditioner is stand-alone so it does not need to be connected to the engine or shore power to operate, providing the freedom of genuine off-the-grid living. All you need is a capable electrical system in your rig to stay cool on the road.

Description

The earlier generations of the Nomadic Cooling units were considered one of the smallest rooftop units in the market, but the Nomadic team envisioned an even smaller footprint. So a few prototypes later, they reduced the dimensions significantly and improved its performance by using a much quieter and longer-lasting brushless internal fan. The compressor has also been mounted on spring bushings to help with road and operational vibration and longevity. The upgrades do not stop there, as Nomadic focused on the all-new intelligent LCD board. Our X3 has an all-new modern crisper panel to ensure better visibility even in direct sunlight. The entire MCB has been revamped with better electrical components, circuitry, and more intelligent operational logic. This translates to the compressor adapting considerably faster to freezing points, better error code detection, and speedier motor over-current, providing less supervision and downtime.

Modes
Eco mode should be the default operation type on a Nomadic Cooling air conditioner. The powerful mode should only be used for short periods of time for maximum cooling or initial cooling of the space and then changed to eco mode to save on power consumption.

We recommend a minimum of 400Ah of lithium batteries, depending on the desired runtime/environment.

Wiring Notes

Starting in mid-2024, the DC power wires coming out of the bottom of the AC unit have ring terminals. Prior that that, they shipped with Anderson type connectors. These wires must be connected to your DC power supply/electrical system. This can be with your own wiring (see recommended gauge below), using the wiring/splicers included in the Vanlife Outfitters "basic installation kit" (offered above), or the wiring included with the Nomadic "DIY installation kit" (also offered above). Note that the wiring that is included with the Nomadic "DIY installation kits" have a Anderson connector so you'll either need to supply your own mating Anderson connector for the wires coming from the AC unit or plan to cut those off and provide your own splicing mechanism.


Key Features

  • Quiet, brushless internal fans mean noise at maximum power is at or below 60dBA.
  • Super energy efficient. The unit has a 70amp compressor but its variable speed technology allows it to operate at much lower power consumption and adjust to ambient conditions as necessary. See the video below for more information!
  • Intelligent microprocessor control system, allows the user to set the temperature based on the desired temperature.
  • Includes multiple built-in protection functions such as pressure alarm, power high/low voltage, motor over-current, and motor temperature protection.
  • Fits in industry-standard 14x14 opening
  • One of the smallest of any rooftop DC air conditioners
  • Sight glass for on-the-road troubleshooting
  • Modern LCD control panel
  • Stainless steel hardware
  • Spring bushing-mounted compressor and rubber-dampening feet ensure virtually vibration-free operation

  • Maintenance Tips for Nomadic Cooling Air Conditioner
  • We recommend adding a wooden support "frame" around the 14" x 14" roof opening for the air conditioner that is the same "height" as the surrounding ceiling treatment in your build. Here's an example photo. Then you can waterproof this frame with something like Flexseal to protect it from any moisture formed by condensation. This frame will give support to your installation and will also prevent the air intake or cooled air output from going into the ceiling instead of the living space. In this way, you don't need the "trim ring" included in Nomadic Cooling's optional "DIY installation kit".
