Keginator is the highest performing, most efficient cooling kegerator keg fridge on the market. Its superior insulation and design make it the best choice for budget-conscious customers who want a kegerator built to last. It will outperform any other kegerator of similar size even in hot climates.

Condensing Lines

One of the most efficient ways to dissipate heat is airflow — similar to how computers need fans to cool down or how most houses use fans during hot summers. By having the condensing lines on the outside of the unit, we allow the kegerator to dissipate heat much more efficiently with increased airflow all around the condenser. Air circulation easily carries away the heat, with no restrictions from heat being trapped inside the insulation or feeding back inside the fridge like other models.

This design makes your fridge draw less power less often and work less hard, increasing its longevity.

Coolant

Boasting 40g of R600a premium coolant, Keginator has an increased coolant capacity of 30% compared to most kegerators on the market from older generations (Series 4, Series X). R600a, also known as isobutane, is a hydrocarbon refrigerant used in modern appliances like kegerators and fridges. It's highly energy-efficient, has low global warming potential (GWP), and operates quietly. Despite being flammable, it's safe in small quantities and is widely adopted as a greener alternative to older refrigerants.

Compressor Model and Power

33% increased cooling capacity vs older and outdated models.

Model Power Supply Frequency (Hz) Displacement (cm³) Cooling Capacity (W) COP (W/W)
QD75YG 220–240 V / 50 Hz 50 7.5 120 1.85

For every unit of power ingested by the compressor, it generates 1.85 units of cooling. Compared to similar models using smaller, less powerful compressors generating 1.25 units of cooling per unit of power — that's a 33% increase in efficiency.

Power Usage

During testing, Keginator used 1.01 kWh of power to cool down a 20L keg of water, vs 1.33 kWh used by similar models on the market.

Keginator's superior design — condensing lines on the outside for increased heat dissipation, superior compressor, and superior cooling power — renders the entire unit the most energy-efficient kegerator on the market. This reflects a 30% cost saving over other brands of similar size, not including Kegmaster Premium.

Insulation

Cyclopentane-blown polyurethane foam has very low thermal conductivity (typically ~0.020–0.025 W/m·K), making it excellent at keeping temperatures stable — ideal for kegerators, fridges, and freezers. Cyclopentane replaces ozone-depleting substances like CFCs or HCFCs and has zero ozone depletion potential (ODP) and very low global warming potential (GWP) compared to older agents. Cyclopentane is the industry standard for refrigerators and kegerators from brands like Samsung, LG, and Bosch.

Criteria Cyclopentane-blown Foam VIP / Aerogel / Exotic Insulation
Thermal performance ⭐⭐⭐⭐☆ (very good) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (excellent)
Cost ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (cheap, mass-used) ⭐☆☆☆☆ (expensive)
Durability ⭐⭐⭐⭐☆ ⭐⭐☆☆☆ (can degrade if punctured)
Availability ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ ⭐☆☆☆☆
Environmental safety ⭐⭐⭐⭐☆ (low GWP, zero ODP) Varies

Installation

Similarly to our Kegmaster Premium, Keginator can easily be built under counter or in cabinetry with vents. Dissipating heat at the back — not on the sides — means you have the most flexible unit currently on the market, which can be built flush on each side or even drilled into them for increased flexibility.

When you get a Keginator™, you get a better kegerator for a better price, including:

  • Built in rollers for easy moving – removeable and upgradeable to castors
  • Reversible Door – orient to open how you like
  • Built in font fan, keeps your taps and lines cool for a perfect pour
  • Fits standard fonts – choose how many taps you require
  • Suitable for free standing installations – can also be installed under counters with no side clearance required
  • Quality materials & construction
  • Black Door
  • R600a Refrigerant – environmentally friendly

 

Specifications:

  • Height:  850 mm with rollers 830 mm without rollers 890 mm with castors
  • Width:   610 mm
  • Depth:   660 mm
  • Internal Height:   724.9 mm
  • Internal Width:   511.9 mm
  • Internal Depth:   405.1 mm
  • Volume:   160 L
  • Weight:   43 Kg
  • Power:   220-240V 50Hz
  • Climate Class:   T
  • Refrigerant:   R600a (40g)
  • Insulation:   Cyclopentane
  • Temperature set range -5° to 28°C (only cools below ambient temperatures)
  • Packaged dimensions: H 88cm W 66cm D 69cm

 

Recommended Setback:

Our Keginator needs good airflow to help it achieve optimum cooling power. The ideal setback, or spacing, is as per below (when facing the fridge):

  • No setback required on the sides
  • No setback required at the back, though we suggest 5-10cm for good airflow circulation
  • No setback required on the top, can be installed flush to a counter top
  • No setback required underneath*
  • No setback at the front
  • Can not be enclosed into a cabinet, it must have vents

*It is recommended to have your Keginator elevated from the floor, in case any moisture settles under it, the spacing will help dissipate it.

 

Setting the Calibration Factor on the Keginator:

If your kegerator is freezing the chill plate on the inside with a thick layer or ice, it is recommended to set the calibration at -3 and see if the situation improves.

If the Keginator™ is not cold enough, it is recommended to set it to +2 and see it the situation improves.

 

  1. Press and hold both the “Cooler” and “Warmer” buttons for 5 seconds until the temperature display flashes SC.
  2. Release those buttons and press the “°F/°C” button.
  3. The display now shows the calibration factor, and you can change it with the “Cooler” and “Warmer” buttons.
  4. Once it is at the desired value press the “°F/°C” button again to save it. 

 

Must read

  • Ventilation: the fridge MUST have proper ventilation around itself in order to cool properly and to maximise its lifespan
  • Out of direct sunlight: the fridge MUST NOT be in direct sunlight
  • Indoors fridge: this fridge is designed to be installed inside, in a nicely ventilated area
  • Class T: this fridge has been tested under the tropical climate conditions

 

These fridges are designed for indoor, domestic use. For outdoors usage, we recommend our Kegmaster Solstice range.
