VWR HCUCBI0404 Plus Series Built-In Undercounter Laboratory Refrigerator, Solid Door, 4.6 cu. ft.

VWR HCUCBI0404 Plus Series Built-In Undercounter Laboratory Refrigerator, Dual Probe Temperature Monitoring, Solid Door, 4.6 cu. ft., Forced Draft Air Circulation 

The VWR Plus Series Built-In Undercounter Laboratory Refrigerator (HCUCBI0404) is a high-performance cold storage solution designed specifically for seamless integration under laboratory benches and countertops. Featuring a front-facing ventilation system, this built-in unit can be easily installed directly into tight spaces without requiring extra clearance on the sides. With a 4.6 cubic foot (130 L) capacity, it delivers professional, lab-quality temperature control in a space-saving footprint.

Designed with energy efficiency and environmental health in mind, this unit runs on eco-friendly, HFC-free natural R600a hydrocarbon refrigerant and high-density urethane foam cabinet and door insulation. A precise microprocessor temperature controller maintains a highly stable, adjustable operating temperature range of 1°C to 10°C, which is continuously displayed on an external digital screen. For maximum monitoring accuracy, the refrigerator utilizes a dual-probe system, with one probe measuring air temperature and another resting inside a glycol bottle.

The refrigerator features a right-hinged solid swing door equipped with a secure keyed lock and a recessed door handle to maximize aisle space. For optimal air distribution, it utilizes forced draft air circulation alongside three shelves (two adjustable and one fixed) featuring a built-in rear guard rail to prevent inventory from being pushed flat against the back-wall evaporator cover.

To protect valuable laboratory inventory, the system is fully equipped with audible and visual high/low temperature alarms, plus remote alarm contacts for easy connection to your facility's central monitoring system.

Features:

• Built-In Front Ventilation Design: Specially engineered with front-facing ventilation, allowing easy, flush installation into laboratory benches or countertops without requiring extra side clearance.
• Microprocessor Temperature Control: Advanced controller ensures tight thermal stability paired with a clear digital temperature display on the exterior.
• Forced Draft Air Circulation: Active forced draft system guarantees excellent cabinet-wide temperature uniformity and rapid recovery after door openings.
• Dual Probe Temperature Monitoring: Uses two separate probes—one in the air and one inside a glycol bottle—for highly accurate temperature readings.
• Intelligent Shelf Design: Equipped with three shelves (two adjustable, one fixed) with built-in rear guard rails to keep products from blocking back-wall air flow.
• Comprehensive Alarms & Safety: Features audible and visual high/low temperature alarms, remote alarm dry contacts, and a physical keyed door lock.
• Eco-Friendly R600a Refrigerant: Runs on natural, HFC-free hydrocarbon refrigerant and insulation foam to deliver energy-efficient cooling with minimal GWP.
• Extended Compressor Warranty: Backed by a standard two-year parts and labor warranty, plus an additional three-year warranty covering compressor parts only.
• Sleek Recessed Handle: Outfitted with a recessed door handle to prevent obstructions in busy laboratory walkways.
