16 Cu. Ft. Premier Glass Door Pharmacy Refrigerator

Product Number: PH-ABT-VS-16G

The PH-ABT-VS-16G delivers exceptional temperature control with maximum variation of just +/- 1.5°C and stability of +/- 0.3°C using simulator ballast, making it the ideal storage solution for temperature-sensitive pharmaceuticals. This advanced pharmacy refrigerator features variable speed compressor technology that achieves remarkable efficiency, consuming less than 0.9 KWh per day while meeting ENERGY STAR v2.0 standards for laboratory refrigerators. The unit operates at whisper-quiet levels of 40 dBA or less, ensuring minimal disruption in clinical environments.

Engineered for demanding healthcare settings, the PH-ABT-VS-16G incorporates a microprocessor temperature controller with variable frequency compressor control, maintaining precise temperatures between 36°F to 46°F (2°C to 8°C). The system features forced draft air circulation with patented air flow technology, ensuring uniform temperature distribution throughout the 16 cubic foot interior. Six adjustable shelves provide flexible storage configurations, while the self-closing glass door with magnetic gasket maintains optimal conditions even during frequent access.

Built to last with white powder coated steel construction and high-density urethane foam insulation, the PH-ABT-VS-16G includes comprehensive monitoring capabilities with audible and visual alarms for high/low temperature, sensor error, power failure, and door ajar conditions. The unit features remote alarm contacts for integration with facility monitoring systems, a keyed door lock compatible with digital lock systems including Pyxis, Omnicell, and AcuDose RX, and safety-shielded LED interior lighting. With a generous 7-year compressor warranty and 2-year parts and labor coverage, this premier refrigerator delivers reliable long-term performance.
