VWR HCRFC1040G Plus Series Refrigerator Freezer Combo Unit Glass Door Dual Microprocessor Keyed Lock (-40°C Freezer), 5.2 cu. ft. Refrigerator / 4 cu. ft. Freezer, Ultra-Low Dual Storage
The VWR Plus Series Freestanding Refrigerator Freezer Combination Unit (Catalog No: 76488-188 / Model: HCRFC1040G), supplied by VWR International, is an ultra-low dual-temperature cold storage solution engineered for demanding laboratory environments requiring rapid visual inventory inspection alongside deep sub-zero (-40°C) frozen preservation. Featuring a glass swing door for the upper refrigerator section and a solid swing door for the lower freezer section, this unit combines a 5.2 cubic foot (147 L) refrigerator with a 4.0 cubic foot (113 L) ultra-low temperature freezer in a single compact freestanding cabinet.
Designed for specialized research, clinical, and industrial workflows, the glass refrigerator door allows immediate sample visibility without opening the cabinet, preserving internal thermal stability and reducing operational energy loads. Both compartments are fitted with independent keyed door locks to enforce strict physical access control for high-value biological materials. The durable white powder-coated exterior is insulated with high-density urethane foam and equipped with leveling legs and a stacking kit setup for structural stability.
Thermal regulation is managed by independent microprocessor controllers paired with digital displays for both compartments. The upper refrigerator compartment operates within a 2°C to 8°C range utilizing forced draft air circulation and an automated cycle defrost mechanism. The lower freezer compartment maintains ultra-stable low temperatures between -37°C and -43°C (-40°C nominal) with a manual defrost design to eliminate temperature fluctuations that could compromise sensitive samples. Both compartments feature comprehensive monitoring with audible/visual high and low temperature alarms, dual sensing probes (1 air probe, 1 sample bottle probe), remote alarm contacts, and a 3/8" probe access port.
Interior storage includes three adjustable shelves in the refrigerator compartment and three adjustable shelves plus a bottom footed shelf in the freezer compartment to ensure unimpeded air circulation. Safety-shielded interior LED lighting illuminates the glass-door refrigerator section. Powered by natural hydrocarbon refrigerants (HFC-free R600a for the refrigerator and natural R290 for the freezer), this system delivers maximum energy efficiency with zero ozone depletion potential.
Features:
- Glass Door Refrigerator Section: Features a glass swing door for the refrigerator compartment, allowing effortless visual inventory checks without disturbing internal temperatures.
- Ultra-Low Dual Storage: Combines a 5.2 cu. ft. refrigerator (2°C to 8°C) and an ultra-low 4.0 cu. ft. freezer (-37°C to -43°C) in a single compact freestanding footprint.
- Independent Microprocessor Controllers: Separate digital controllers and temperature displays ensure exact thermal regulation for each compartment.
- Comprehensive Dual-Probe Alarm System: Equipped with audible/visual high and low temperature alarms, dual probes (air and sample bottle), remote alarm contacts, and a 3/8" probe access port.
- Independent Keyed Door Locks: Both doors feature physical keyed locks for dual-compartment sample security.
- Optimized Defrosting Systems: Automated cycle defrost for the refrigerator section and manual defrost for the -40°C freezer section to eliminate temperature spikes.
- Dual Hydrocarbon Refrigerant System: Utilizes HFC-free R600a for the refrigerator and natural R290 for the freezer for low energy consumption and environmentally friendly operation.
- Flexible Interior Storage: Features 3 adjustable shelves in the refrigerator compartment and 3 adjustable shelves with a bottom footed shelf in the freezer compartment.
- Safety & Compliance: UL and C-UL listed design backed by a 2-year parts and labor warranty plus a 3-year additional compressor parts warranty.
