VWR VWR-HC-SLS-36 Standard Series Solid Door Laboratory Refrigerator, Microprocessor Temperature Control, Swing Doors, 36 cu. ft., ENERGY STAR Certified

The VWR Standard Series Solid Door Laboratory Refrigerator (VWR-HC-SLS-36) provides dependable, energy-efficient, and economical cold storage for laboratory environments requiring daily sample protection. Engineered with a large 36 cubic foot (1019 L) capacity, this upright refrigerator combines high-volume storage with robust thermal insulation, making it an excellent choice for storing temperature-sensitive biological specimens, clinical reagents, and general laboratory materials.

Designed to maximize thermal retention and prevent energy loss, this unit features two self-closing, right-hinged solid swing doors. The solid door configuration is insulated with high-density urethane foam and seals tightly with a positive magnetic gasket, ensuring the internal chamber remains completely insulated from external light and ambient room temperatures. Physical keyed door locks are integrated directly into the doors to prevent unauthorized access and secure valuable samples in busy laboratory environments.

The refrigerator's interior is constructed from durable white powder-coated steel and illuminated by safety-shielded, switch-controlled LED lighting. Eight heavy-duty wire shelves, adjustable in 1/2" increments, allow laboratory personnel to customize the internal layout to fit containers, boxes, and vials of varying sizes.

Controlled by a precise microprocessor system, this refrigerator maintains a stable adjustable operating temperature range of 1°C to 10°C, shown continuously on a clear external digital temperature display. A forced-draft air circulation system actively drives cold air throughout the entire cabinet to maintain temperature uniformity and support rapid thermal recovery after routine door openings. Dual temperature probes (one air probe and one simulated product sample bottle probe) track internal conditions with high accuracy. Built-in security features include audible and visual high/low temperature alarms and remote alarm contacts for building automation system integration.

To meet modern environmental standards and reduce energy consumption, this refrigerator runs on eco-friendly, natural R290 hydrocarbon refrigerant and features ENERGY STAR certification, proving safer for both human health and the environment.

Features:
