I gone through the site looking for an answer to this question but was unable to find it. I have a Norcold refridgerator that has gone out. I am looking to replace the cooling unit but have had trouble finding it anywhere. I am 100% sure this is the problem since I was the one who caused it. I have gone to the www.RVcoolingunit.com site and have sent an email on which unit I would need but haven't heard back. If I can't find it I will most likely replace it with the same unit or the Vitrifrigo DP2600i. Any recommendations on where to purchase from would be greatly appreciated
 
That fridge is the replacement to the original DE461 that was found on a lot of these Sea Rays. By the time you replace the cooling unit your probably better off just replacing with a new complete unit. Most of the new ones have a better compressor, seals ect that make it a nice albeit expensive upgrade.

The options to replace include that Vitrifrigo 2600i, NovaCool RFU 9000 or RFU 9200 or IsoTherm Cruise 195. The difference is some have 1 compressor for both the fridge/freezer, and some have a dedicated compressor for the fridge/freezer section.

Here's what I have about the sizes...

Thanks for the reply. I was weighing my options on repair or replace. That spreadsheet is great and I appreciate you sending it. I will check into some of the other units you included.
