Description
Summit Medical Vaccine ADA Freezer Description:
Accucold’s Pharma-Vac Performance Series are upright freezers are designed and purpose-built for pharmacy, medication, and vaccine applications to support meeting CDC/VFC guidelines.
The Summit AFZ2PVBIADADL2B Medical Vaccine ADA Freezer is a 2.47 cu.ft. all-freezer with a temperature range of -30°C to -10°C as recommended for a variety of vaccines and pharmaceuticals. It is designed for freestanding or recessed installation and sized just under 32″ high to fit under lower counters complying with ADA guidelines for accessibility. The microprocessor temperature controller is externally located to minimize door openings, helping to protect stored contents from ambient temperature. The buffered temperature probe is encased in a glycol-filled bottle to better simulate temperature of the stored product, with an additional sensor that reads air temperature to ensure superior temperature control. The current and min/max temperature display is viewable in Celsius or Fahrenheit to the nearest tenth of a degree. The audible and visual temperature alarm sounds if the unit’s interior goes out of range. Additional alarms include a power failure alert, door open alarm, and sensor failure alarm. This model is equipped with remote alarm contacts in the rear and a 1/2″ probe port on the right side to accept additional monitoring devices. A hospital grade cord with ‘green dot’ plug is also included for added safety in high traffic areas.
We also include our DL2B digital data logger to be mounted to the door, a feature recommended by the CDC and VFC for vaccine storage. This password-protected DDL is NIST calibrated in our ISO/IEC 17025:2017 accredited laboratory and offers a large LCD display of the current and high/low temperature, recording up to 32,000 data groups to its internal memory or even more on the included 4GB USB flash drive. Data can be viewed through a PC or Mac in Microsoft Excel or any .CSV compatible program. Users can set their own recording intervals starting at increments of 10 seconds to best meet a facility’s specific logging needs. We include a 2-year certificate of calibration beginning the date of manufacture. The logger can be re-calibrated in our laboratories after the certificate expires. (For additional information on the DDL, see the DL2BKit listing on our website.)
Inside, this freezer features adjustable plastic-coated wire shelves that can be positioned at 1/2″ increments to accommodate virtually any sized item. This unit includes LED internal lighting with an on/off rocker switch. The interior is constructed from white powder coated metal to ensure added durability and better temperature retention. Static manual defrost cooling helps to ensure stable temperature conditions.
The Summit AFZ2PVBIADADL2B Medical Vaccine ADA Freezer comes in a white cabinet finish with a blue accented control panel. The factory-installed antimicrobial handle is powder-coated with naturally occurring silver ions, which help to reduce the spread of germs, allowing for a safer, cleaner user experience. The user-reversible door ships with a right hand swing and self-closing function, while a factory-installed lock provides security as needed, with two keys for staff use. Powerful magnetic gaskets ensure a positive seal.
Designed with hydrocarbon refrigerant, Accucold Performance series freezers provide an energy efficient solution to vaccine storage. This unit is Pyxis, Omnicell, and AcuDose RX compatible. Additional sizes, as well as solid door options, are also available. Explore the full Pharma-Vac series at accucold.com/pharmavac.

Product FAQ
What is the AFZ2PVBIADADL2B and what is it designed for?
The AFZ2PVBIADADL2B is an ADA-height healthcare freezer with approximately 57 L (≈ 2.0 cu ft) capacity and exterior dimensions around 81 cm H × 50 cm W × 57 cm D (≈ 32″ × 19.75″ × 22.6″). It is intended for clinical, pharmacy, and laboratory environments requiring controlled frozen storage.
What temperature range and control features does it support?
It supports a selectable set-point range from −30 °C to −10 °C, managed by a digital microprocessor controller with external display of current and min/max readings. A buffered probe is used to better reflect stored-product temperature.
What alarms, monitoring, and security features are included?
The unit provides audible/visual high/low temperature alarms, door-ajar alert, power-failure indication, sensor-fault alarm, remote alarm contact outputs, a probe access port for external monitoring, and a factory-installed keyed lock.
What construction and usability features support its healthcare application?
Features include a self-closing door, adjustable wire shelving, LED interior lighting, front-breathing ventilation for built-in or freestanding placement, a sealed-back cabinet for easier cleaning, and an energy-efficient hydrocarbon refrigerant.
Shipping FAQ
What are the exterior dimensions and shipping weight?
Approximate exterior size: 81 cm H × 50 cm W × 57 cm D (≈ 32″ × 19.75″ × 22.6″). Typical shipping weight is about 52 kg (≈ 115 lb).
What electrical and installation requirements apply?
Operates on 115 V AC / 60 Hz with a typical draw suited for medical facilities. Use a dedicated grounded outlet, install level, and maintain clear ventilation paths—especially important for built-in applications.
What steps should be taken during unpacking and placement?
Inspect for transit damage, keep upright several hours before powering if it was shipped on its side, confirm the unit is level, verify door-swing and ventilation clearance, and test controller and alarms before loading contents.
What delivery method is typical for this model?
Medical under-counter units typically ship via palletized freight. Prepare clear access for off-loading, a stable staging area, and a level installation surface.
Application FAQ
Is this unit suitable for vaccine or pharmaceutical cold-chain storage?
Yes. It is designed for frozen vaccine/medication storage within the −30 °C to −10 °C range and includes monitoring, alarm, and security features aligned with clinical protocols.
What daily best practices should be followed?
Use a calibrated data logger at mid-shelf height, label and rotate inventory, avoid over-packing that restricts airflow, minimize door-open time, and record daily temperature checks per facility SOP.
What routine maintenance is recommended?
Clean condenser and ventilation paths at least twice a year, verify alarm/probe/thermostat operation monthly, inspect the door-gasket annually, and ensure the cabinet remains level with unobstructed airflow.
What should be done in the event of a temperature excursion or alarm?
Document the time and deviation, relocate contents to approved backup storage if necessary, identify and correct the cause (door ajar, airflow blocked, power issue), restore proper conditions, and log corrective actions according to facility procedures.
