The ACR1718LH offers 17 cu.ft. of interior storage, with six adjustable cantilevered shelves to accommodate a variety of sizes. The shelves are constructed from heavy duty recycled molded plastic for lasting durability. As an alternative, we offer a separate full-extension drawer in a durable aluminum finish that can be ordered with this unit. Fan-forced cooling ensures cold air is evenly distributed throughout the stainless steel interior. This model uses automatic defrost operation for easy user maintenance, with audible high/low temperature alarms to warn if the unit goes out of range. A digital thermostat offers intuitive and reliable temperature control. Designed for optimum pharmaceutical storage, the temperature range is 2ºC to 8ºC.
The ACR1718LH comes with a stainless steel cabinet with a locking tempered self-closing glass door, an ideal time-saving feature for busy staffs that helps to ensure items aren’t accidentally exposed to room temperature. LED lighting in the door panel allows all stored items to be fully displayed. A hidden light switch is conveniently located towards the top of the unit, letting staff turn the lights off during off hours. This unit features a high efficiency compressor and maintenance-free rear condenser. A factory installed keyed lock offers added security in preventing unsupervised access to sensitive materials.
