Accucold - 20" Wide Built-in Pharmacy All-refrigerator, ADA Compliant - ACR45LCALSTO
Accucold’s Pharmaceutical Series features refrigeration specially designed to meet current CDC and VFC guidelines for vaccine storage, with built-in choices sized to fit under ADA compliant counters.
The ACR45LCALSTO is an all-refrigerator is sized at just under 32" high. It features a front-breathing design for built-in installation under lower ADA compliant counters, with a fully finished cabinet that also allows freestanding use. This unit is equipped with our step-to-open door pedal, allowing users to open the door without touching the handle for more hygienic use. Its sealed back allows for a better fit and easier cleanability. A hospital grade cord with a 'green dot' plug provides added safety in high traffic areas and a factory-installed keyed lock is locatd towards the top of the unit for convenient security. Four adjustable leveling legs allow you to raise the height for a better fit under standard countertops.
For optimum temperature management, the ACR45LSTO features an external control panel, allowing users to adjust and monitor the temperature without opening the door. A pre-installed NIST certified thermometer is calibrated in our own ISO/IEC 17025:2017 accredited laboratory to provide an external readout of the current and high/low temperatures to the nearest tenth of a degree (as recommended by the CDC and VFC). The display is switchable between Celsius or Fahrenheit at the touch of a button. The thermometer includes an audible alarm to warn users if the interior has gone out of the programmed temperature range. The buffered temperature probe is encased in a bottle filled with glass beads and secured inside the center shelf to best simulate the temperature of other stored contents, resulting in the utmost accuracy for temperature reporting. We include a pre-installed 3/8" probe hole for users who wish to install additional monitoring equipment as needed and a certificate of calibration for your facility's records.
