Dometic RM4200 | RM4210 | RM4211 | RM4270 Spare Parts

The Dometic RM4200, RM4210, RM4211 and RM4270 are compact 3-way absorption refrigerators that were commonly installed in caravans, campervans and motorhomes throughout Australia and Europe. Designed for reliable touring and off-grid travel, these fridges operate on 240V AC mains power, 12V DC vehicle power and LPG gas, providing flexible cooling wherever your travels take you.

Part of Dometic's long-running RM series, these refrigerators utilise silent absorption cooling technology, meaning there are no compressors or moving parts during operation. This made them particularly popular in smaller RVs where quiet operation, low maintenance and gas-powered cooling were highly valued.

Although these models have now been superseded by newer Dometic absorption and compressor refrigerator ranges, thousands remain in service today. As a result, spare parts remain in strong demand for owners maintaining and repairing existing installations.
