The Accucold Pharma-Vac Performance Series is designed to meet the demanding needs of vaccine and life science storage.
Sized just under 24" wide, this unit features an upper refrigerator compartment with a small window and an independent manual defrost freezer below. Both sections include adjustable plastic-coated wire shelves that can be positioned at 1/2" increments to accommodate virtually any-sized item. This unit includes LED internal lighting with an on/off rocker switch. The interior is constructed from white powder-coated metal to ensure added durability and better temperature retention.
Inside, the upper refrigerator compartment utilizes adjustable cycle defrost operation to avoid temperature spikes. Optimized forced air cooling with an internal fan ensures excellent temperature stability and uniformity with rapid recovery after door openings. The freezer utilizes static manual defrost cooling.
This unit features a dual microprocessor temperature controller (refrigerator range: +2 to +8ºC; freezer range: -30 to -10ºC). The buffered temperature probes are encased in glycol-filled bottles to better simulate the temperature of the stored product, with an additional sensor that reads air temperature to ensure superior temperature control. Additional alarms include a power failure alert, a door open alarm, and a sensor failure alert system.
Both sections are equipped with remote alarm contacts in the rear and a 1/2" probe port on the right side to accept additional monitoring devices. The factory-installed handles are powder-coated with naturally occurring silver ions, which help for a safer, cleaner user experience. A hospital-grade cord with 'green dot' plug is also included for added safety in high-traffic areas.
We also include two DL2B digital data loggers to be mounted to the door, a feature recommended by the CDC, VFC and VFA for vaccine storage. This password-protected DDL is NIST calibrated in our ISO/IEC 17025:2017 accredited laboratory and offers a large LCD display of the current and high/low temperature, recording up to 32,000 data groups to its internal memory or even more on the included 4GB USB flash drive. Data can be viewed through a PC or Mac in Microsoft Excel or any .CSV compatible program. Users can set their own recording intervals starting at increments of 10 seconds to best meet a facility's specific logging needs. Each logger comes with a 2-year certificate of calibration beginning the date of manufacture.
