Description
Pharma-Vac Performance Series 24 Inch Freestanding Vaccine Refrigerator with 12.0 cu. ft. Capacity
Accucold's Pharma-Vac Performance Series are Upright All-refrigerators designed and purpose-built for pharmacy, medication, and vaccine applications to support meeting CDC/VFC guidelines, with a powder-coated silver ion handle that helps prevent germ spread. The ARS12PV is a 12 cu. ft. all-refrigerator with an adjustable control range from +2 to +8°C. The buffered temperature probe is encased in a glycol-filled bottle to better simulate the temperature of the stored product, with an additional sensor that reads air temperature to ensure superior temperature control. The audible and visual temperature alarm sounds if the unit's interior goes out of range. Additional alarms include a power failure alert, door open alarm, and sensor failure alarm. This unit has remote alarm contacts to accept additional monitoring devices and a hospital-grade cord with a 'green dot' plug for added safety in high-traffic areas.
Inside, the ARS12PV utilizes adjustable cycle defrost operation to avoid temperature spikes. Optimized forced air cooling with one internal fan ensures excellent temperature stability and uniformity with rapid recovery after door openings. The adjustable plastic-coated wire shelves can be positioned at 1/2" increments to accommodate virtually any sized item. It includes seven shelves to maximize the interior shelving storage area. This unit includes LED internal lighting with an on/off rocker switch. The interior is constructed from white powder-coated metal to ensure durability and better temperature retention. The user-reversible door comes with a factory-installed antimicrobial handle that is powder-coated with naturally occurring silver ions, which help to reduce the spread of germs, allowing for a safer, cleaner user experience. This model also includes a factory-installed lock and two keys for staff use. Powerful magnetic gaskets ensure a positive seal. Designed with hydrocarbon refrigerant, the ARS12PV provides an energy-efficient solution to vaccine storage. This unit is Pyxis, Omnicell, and AcuDose RX compatible. Additional sizes, as well as solid door options, are also available.
NOTE: Accucold Refrigerators are purpose-built to the support meeting the current CDC (Centers for Disease Control) guidelines for the storage of vaccines. Units that end in suffix "456" have been certified to the new NSF 456 standard. As referenced in the current Vaccine Storage and Handling Toolkit, these units incorporate microprocessor controls and forced air circulation for stable operation between 2 and 8°C. For additional temperature assurance, the CDC recommends a calibrated digital data logger (DDL), which can be added with the factory-installed option DL2B or addition of the DL2BKit accessory.
