Summit Vaccine Healthcare Refrigerator Description:
EQTemp by Accucold introduces a new series of affordable, specialty refrigeration solutions for healthcare facilities seeking specialized cold storage.
Summit ACR32G Vaccine Healthcare Refrigerator is an upright 3.17 cu.ft. all-refrigerator. It features a clean white exterior and a blue-accented control panel. The glass door is equipped with a self-closing mechanism to help protect stored items from being overexposed to room temperature. A factory-installed lock offers added security, and the hospital-grade cord with a ‘green dot’ plug ensures a secure connection for high-traffic areas.
The Summit ACR32G Vaccine Healthcare Refrigerator includes an external readout of the interior temperature and the high/low temperature. The buffered temperature probe is encased in a bottle filled with glass beads for improved accuracy. The digital temperature controls allow you to set the interior between 2 and 8ºC. An audible alarm sounds if the temperature goes out of range. We also include a pre-installed 3/8″ access port for users to add their own monitoring equipment if preferred.
The interior includes one wire shelf in the center to hold the temperature probe, as well as two additional adjustable shelves to accommodate different sizes. Internal LED lighting provides an efficient and convenient view. Automatic defrost reduces user maintenance, and an internal fan ensures robust temperature recovery after door openings.
This unit is also available certified to the NSF/ANSI 456 Vaccine Storage Standard with the upgrade of a NIST calibrated temperature readout (see model ACR32GNSF456). Additional sizes are available, as well as more advanced cold storage equipment purpose-built for laboratory and life science storage. Browse the complete product line to explore our extensive selection.
Note: EQTemp’s ACR Series refrigerators are intended for various healthcare storage applications. Storage of high-value vaccines, life science materials, and medical/clinical biologicals requires a product offering tighter temperature control and/or alarms, monitoring, and backup.

Product FAQ
What is the ACR32G and what is it designed for?
The ACR32G is a slim-footprint healthcare-grade refrigerator (~3.17 cu ft / ≈ 90 L) designed for clinical, pharmacy or laboratory cold-storage where a +2 °C to +8 °C operating range is required.
What temperature range and control features does it support?
It operates between approximately +2 °C and +8 °C. It includes a digital microprocessor controller with an external temperature read-out and a buffered probe system to monitor the actual stored contents, not just ambient air.
What alarm and monitoring features are included?
Features include audible and visual high/low-temperature alarms, door-ajar alarm, power-failure alert, remote alarm contacts, and a 3/8″ probe access port for connection to user-supplied monitoring equipment.
What construction and usability features support its purpose?
The unit offers a self-closing glass door with a keyed lock, hospital-grade “green-dot” plug cord, front-breathing design suitable for built-in or freestanding placement, adjustable wire shelving, LED interior lighting, and a slim width for space-efficient installation.
Shipping FAQ
What are the unit’s external dimensions and shipping weight?
Approximate dimensions: 35.5″ H × 18.88″ W × 20.75″ D (≈ 90 cm × 48 cm × 53 cm). Shipping weight is about 26 kg (≈ 57 lbs).
What are the electrical and installation requirements?
Operates on 115 V AC / 60 Hz with a draw of about 0.9 amps. Requires a dedicated grounded outlet, level installation surface and clearance for proper front-breathing ventilation.
What should be checked during unpacking and placement?
Inspect the unit on delivery for shipping damage, allow it to sit upright if transported on its side, ensure it is level, maintain clearance for door-swing and ventilation, and verify alarm, probe and control operation before loading contents.
What delivery method is typical for this model?
Due to its professional design, delivery is typically by palletized freight. Ensure receiving area access and sufficient staging space for safe off-loading and placement.
Application FAQ
Is this unit suitable for vaccine or clinical cold-chain storage?
Yes — this model is specifically designed for clinical, pharmacy or healthcare environments requiring stable +2 °C to +8 °C conditions and includes appropriate monitoring and control features for such applications.
What best practices should be followed for daily operation?
Install a calibrated data-logger or min-max thermometer at shelf-mid height, label and rotate inventory regularly, avoid over-packing to maintain airflow, minimize door-open duration, and document daily temperature readings per facility protocol.
What routine maintenance should be performed?
Annually check door-gasket seal integrity; clean condenser/vent paths semi-annually; verify thermostat, probe and alarm function monthly (or per schedule); maintain level placement and unobstructed ventilation for reliable performance.
What should be done in the event of a temperature excursion or alarm?
Record the date/time, temperature deviation and affected contents; if required relocate items to backup storage; identify root cause (such as door left open, blocked airflow or power issue); restore correct conditions; and log corrective actions according to your facility’s standard operating procedures.
