VWR VWR-HCCS-33 Standard Series Glass Door Chromatography Refrigerator Sliding Doors, Advanced Hydrocarbon Detector, 33 cu. ft., Eco-Friendly R290 Refrigerant

The VWR Standard Series Glass Door Chromatography Refrigerator (VWR-HCCS-33) is an economical, high-performance, and spacious cold storage solution engineered specifically for stable temperature control and chromatography setups in research, clinical, and industrial laboratories. Featuring a highly practical 33 cubic foot (934 L) capacity and extended vertical clearance, this specialized upright refrigerator easily accommodates full-length chromatography columns, sensitive instrumentation, and temperature-sensitive biological reagents.

Designed to streamline chromatography workflows, this unit features two sliding doors constructed with energy-efficient, double-pane vacuum-insulated glass. These self-closing sliding doors save valuable aisle space in busy laboratories while allowing personnel to perform quick visual inventory checks without opening the unit. It also features a built-in GFCI-protected duplex electrical outlet to power equipment safely inside the chamber, alongside an advanced hydrocarbon detector for enhanced laboratory safety. A dedicated 2" access port with a spring-loaded, self-closing gasketed metal cover allows for the clean introduction of columns, lines, and external cabling without disrupting internal temperature stability.

Integrated door handles, physical keyed locks, and magnetic door gaskets ensure a positive, airtight seal when closed. Inside, safety-shielded, switch-controlled LED lighting brightly illuminates the white powder-coated steel interior, which is configured with eight heavy-duty wire shelves adjustable in 1/2" increments.

The refrigerator utilizes a precise microprocessor controller to maintain an adjustable operating temperature range of 1°C to 10°C, shown continuously on an external digital display. Backed by a high-efficiency forced-draft air circulation system, the cabinet maintains superb temperature uniformity and fast thermal recovery after openings. A dual-probe system (one air probe and one sample bottle probe) tracks conditions accurately. Safety alarms include audible and visual high/low temperature warnings, plus remote alarm contacts for building integration.

This eco-friendly unit runs on natural R290 hydrocarbon refrigerant to meet strict environmental standards and reduce utility costs, supported by high-density urethane foam cabinet insulation.

Please Note: This specialized chromatography refrigerator requires two (2) separate electrical outlets for full operation (one for the refrigeration system and one for the internal GFCI duplex outlet).
