ABS ABT-HC-RFC7SA Vaccine Refrigerator Auto Defrost Freezer
The ABS ABT-HC-RFC7SA Vaccine Refrigerator Auto Defrost Freezer units 7 Cu.Ft Total Capacity, 2 Ext.Doors (Solid & Solid) AUTO DEFROST FREEZER
feature separate microprocessor temperature controller allowing for precise temperature control, verification and recovery. An interior fan driven, forced-draft air circulation system provides excellent temperature uniformity and recovery after door openings. REFRIGERATORS ONLY
All models are equipped with digital temperature displays for convenient monitoring. Critical samples and supplies are security backed with an extensive package of audible and visual alarms. The freezer units feature either an automatic or manual defrost operating system. For manual defrost freezers, periodic manual defrosting is required.
This model requires 4” of clearance around back and sides of the unit for proper ventilation. Improper installation will void the warranty and will lead to temperature maintenance issues, overheating and possible failure.
Environmentally friendly, natural hydrocarbon (HC) refrigerants (not containing hydrofluorocarbons) vastly reduce global-warming potential (GWP) while meeting new EPA/SNAP mandates and UL, ASHRAE compliance guidelines.
DISCLAIMER: Auto defrost freezers incorporate an electric heater installed on the evaporator that assist in the removal of the frost and ice. Although the heater helps speed up the frost and ice removal, it can raise the temperatures within the freezer

Product FAQ
Is this unit suitable for vaccine storage?
Yes. This unit is specifically designed for reliable vaccine storage. It features a microprocessor temperature controller, independent alarm systems, and dual temperature probes (air and sample-simulated liquid) to ensure vaccine integrity and regulatory compliance.
What are the temperature capabilities?
The refrigerator compartment provides precise cooling for vaccines (typically 2°C to 8°C), while the freezer compartment is designed for frozen storage. The freezer uses an automatic defrost cycle to manage ice buildup, ensuring efficient operation.
What security and monitoring features are included?
It is equipped with an alarm package including audible and visual high/low temperature alerts, a power failure alarm, sensor error monitoring, and remote alarm contacts for connection to facility management systems.
What is the warranty coverage?
This unit includes a standard two-year parts and labor warranty, plus an additional three-year compressor parts warranty for reliable, long-term performance in clinical settings.
Shipping FAQ
How is this vaccine refrigerator/freezer shipped?
Given the sensitive nature of the electronics and internal cooling system, this unit is shipped via LTL (Less-Than-Truckload) freight, securely palletized and crated to ensure it arrives in optimal condition.
Do I need liftgate service?
Yes, liftgate service is mandatory unless your facility has a loading dock capable of receiving an 18-wheeler truck, as this unit must be carefully lowered to ground level.
What should I inspect upon arrival?
Before signing the delivery receipt, you must perform a comprehensive inspection of the unit, specifically focusing on the exterior, door seals, and refrigeration housing for any signs of transit-related damage.
What are the post-delivery setup steps?
To prevent damage to the compressor and ensure long-term stability, you must allow the unit to sit upright in its final location for at least 24 hours to let all fluids settle before powering it on.
