Here are common questions and answers about this product

Gelu is on every product pageJust ask a question, anytime
What temperature range can I set on this refrigerator?

The adjustable temperature range is 2° C to 15° C, controlled by a microprocessor temperature controller with variable frequency compressor control, switchable between C° and F° with a resolution of 0.1° C/0.2° F.

Temp Controller tab
What are the electrical requirements?

The unit is rated at 3 Amps and uses a NEMA 5-15 plug. Facility electrical requirement is 110–120V AC, 15A breaker, NEMA 5-15 receptacle.

Description tab
How much clearance does the ABT-VS-23S need for installation?

The refrigerator requires a minimum 2" of clearance around the back and sides for proper ventilation, and more if next to heat-rejecting equipment. Improper installation will void the warranty and lead to temperature maintenance issues, overheating and possible failure.

Temp Controller tab
What alarms are included?

It has audible and visual high/low temperature alarms, remote alarm contacts, a sensor error alarm, a power failure alarm, and a door ajar alarm. A battery backup supports the controller temperature display and alarms only, with no cooling active.

Temp Controller tab
What refrigerant and defrost method does it use?

It uses EPA SNAP compliant R600a Isobutane, a hydrocarbon natural refrigerant, with a hermetic variable speed compressor and cycle defrost.

Performance tab
What warranty comes with this refrigerator?

It includes a two (2) year parts and labor warranty and a seven (7) year compressor warranty.

Description tab
What is a Variable Speed Compressor (VSC)?

A variable speed compressor (VSC) self-adjusts to cooling demand instead of running at one fixed speed, giving greater efficiency and more cost savings than a traditional fixed-speed model. On this unit it works alongside the microprocessor temperature controller, which provides the precise temperature control.
