Accucold - 3 Cu.Ft. Counter Height Vaccine Refrigerator, Certified to NSF/ANSI 456 Vaccine Storage Standard - ARG3PV456
The ARG3PV456 is a 3 cu. ft. all-refrigerator designed for reliable vaccine storage, meeting CDC, WHO, and other health regulations. Its microprocessor temperature controller allows precise adjustments from +2 to +8ºC, with an externally located display to minimize door openings. A buffered temperature probe in a glycol-filled bottle ensures accurate monitoring, complemented by an additional air temperature sensor. Audible and visual alarms alert users to temperature deviations, power failures, and door openings. Optimized forced air cooling with an internal fan enhances stability, while adjustable wire shelves offer flexible storage. The hospital-grade cord with a ‘green dot’ plug adds safety in busy environments. A double-pane tempered glass door with a self-closing function provides clear visibility, while the antimicrobial handle helps reduce germ spread. Additional features include LED lighting, a factory-installed lock with two keys, and remote alarm contacts. The durable white powder-coated metal interior ensures longevity and temperature retention.
