VWR VWR-HCLS-26 Standard Series Glass Door Laboratory Refrigerator, Swing Door, Switch-Controlled LED Lighting, 26 cu. ft., Cycle Defrost

The VWR Standard Series Glass Door Laboratory Refrigerator (VWR-HCLS-26) provides reliable, economical, and high-visibility cold storage designed specifically for routine scientific, clinical, and industrial workflows. With a generous 26 cubic foot (736 L) capacity, this upright laboratory refrigerator is engineered for the daily storage of temperature-sensitive materials, including reagents, media, standards, and samples where quick visual confirmation is essential.

Equipped with a self-closing, right-hinged glass swing door, this refrigerator allows laboratory personnel to quickly locate and verify inventory without opening the cabinet and causing thermal disruption. A heavy-duty door handle and a magnetic door gasket provide a positive, airtight seal to maintain temperature integrity. Inside, the cabinet features safety-shielded, switch-controlled LED lighting and four adjustable wire shelves that can be configured in 1/2" increments to suit changing storage requirements.

At the core of its performance is an advanced microprocessor temperature controller paired with an external digital display, maintaining an adjustable operating temperature range of 1°C to 10°C. An active forced-draft air circulation system guarantees outstanding cabinet-wide temperature uniformity and quick recovery times after doors are opened. For high-accuracy monitoring, the unit features a dual-probe system with one probe in the air and another resting inside a sample bottle.

Safety and compliance features include built-in audible and visual high/low temperature alarms, remote alarm dry contacts for connection to your facility's central monitoring network, and a physical keyed door lock. Operating on eco-friendly, natural R290 hydrocarbon refrigerant, this energy-efficient refrigerator delivers exceptional performance with minimal environmental impact. Pre-installed swivel casters allow for quick, effortless physical relocation and cleaning.
