Webasto C40 T C-Series 40000 BTU Marine Chiller

Description

Boats with three or more independent cabins that need more capacity than the smaller C-Series models offer find a solid mid-range option in the Webasto C40, delivering 40,000 BTU/h of central chiller cooling. This central chiller mid capacity yacht system can be configured across 1 or 2 stages, giving installers flexibility to match output to the boat’s actual zone count.

At 176 lbs and built on the same compact chassis dimensions as Webasto’s other C-Series units, this model bridges the gap between entry-level chillers and the larger multi-stage systems, without demanding the footprint or electrical infrastructure of Webasto’s biggest units.

Key Features of the Webasto C40 Chiller

This webasto chiller multi stage unit brings remote diagnostics and staged load management to a mid-capacity tier, suited for boats that have outgrown entry-level chillers but don’t need the largest C-Series option.

• 1 or 2-stage system configuration for matching output to variable cooling demands
• BlueCool Expert Tool enables remote diagnostics and troubleshooting from anywhere via USB cable and Wi-Fi
• Compressor noise reduced by up to 25% compared to previous generations
• Continuous cooling capacity maintained even in tropical operating conditions
• Cooling and heating via reverse cycle function included as standard

Webasto C40 Technical Specifications

These figures come from Webasto’s official spec sheet for part number WBCL1207002D. As with several other Webasto chillers, this page’s title correctly identifies it as the “T” variant while the body description text refers to it as the “M” variant — the underlying part number and spec data remain consistent regardless.

• Frequency: 50/60 Hz
• Current Draw Running: 13.8 to 16.0 A

Why Choose the Webasto C40

This unit carries Webasto’s standard 2-year warranty. Given the naming inconsistency noted above between the “T” and “M” designations on the product page, confirming the exact part number (WBCL1207002D) with Webasto or CTM before ordering is a reasonable precaution.

What to Know Before Installing

• This chiller requires separately specified air handlers (Webasto’s A-Series) distributed to each independent zone
• The 2 x 16A max circuit breaker spec reflects the 2-stage compressor configuration — plan your electrical panel accordingly
• Ships via freight given the 176 lb weight; commercial delivery address required
• Professional installation and electrical planning is strongly recommended
