The Summit FF7LWBIPLUS2 Undercounter Medical Refrigerator is a commercially approved all-refrigerator sized at just under 24″ wide. Made in Europe, it comes in a white exterior finish with a keyed lock located towards the top of the door for convenient security. The front-breathing system allows built-in installation under counters, while the fully finished cabinet also enables freestanding use. A digital thermostat is located in the kickplate for easy and precise temperature management.
The Summit FF7LWBIPLUS2 Undercounter Medical Refrigerator uses automatic defrost operation and includes an internal fan for stabilized cooling. Adjustable wire shelves offer flexible storage inside the 5.5 cu.ft. interior, with a flat door liners as recommended by the CDC. The Summit FF7LWBIPLUS2 Undercounter Medical Refrigerator includes a thermometer calibrated to NIST standards in our ISO/IEC 17025:2005 laboratory. It displays the current, minimum, and maximum temperature to the nearest tenth degree viewable in Celsius or Fahrenheit. The buffered temperature probe is stored in a glycol-filled bottle to ensure the temperature reading best reflects the temperature of other stored freezer contents.
The Summit FF7LWBIPLUS2 Undercounter Medical Refrigerator is ETL-S listed to NSF-7 commercial standards. It can be further customized with a variety of options, including data loggers, alarms, and more. Contact our sales team for more information.

Shipping FAQ
How long does shipping take after placing an order?
Typical lead time is 5–7 business days when the unit is in stock.
Is international shipping available and what should I consider for Melbourne, Australia?
Yes — international shipping is available. For delivery to Melbourne, Australia you should consider:
• Import duties, customs clearance, and GST.
• Site access: confirm doorway/elevator width of approx. 60 cm, depth of approx. 60 cm, and allow ~117 cm front clearance for full door opening.
• Electrical compatibility: The standard U.S. model is 115 V AC / 60 Hz; for Australia (230 V / 50 Hz) you will need the correct export variant or install a certified step-down transformer by a licensed electrician.

Application FAQ
How do I install and set up the FF7LWBIPLUS2?
1. Position the appliance under a counter or on a firm, level indoor surface in a climate-controlled room; allow clearance behind, above and approximately 117 cm in front for full door opening.
2. Connect to a dedicated grounded outlet that matches the unit’s voltage rating.
3. Power on the unit, set the thermostat to the specified +2 °C to +8 °C range, and allow 3–4 hours for internal temperature stabilization before loading sensitive materials.
What best practices should I follow when using this refrigerator?
• Arrange stored items with spacing on the shelves to allow airflow; avoid over-packing which can reduce uniform cooling.
• Label stored contents with batch number and date/time; apply a first-in-first-out (FIFO) rotation policy where applicable.
• Minimize door-open events and use the external display/thermometer rather than frequent internal checks.
• Inspect door gaskets/seals, hinges, locks regularly; confirm interior surfaces are clean and the unit remains level.
What should I do if a temperature excursion or power interruption occurs?
If the internal temperature rises above or falls below the specified +2 °C to +8 °C range or power interruption happens:
• Record the event with date/time and affected contents.
• Transfer critical items to validated backup refrigeration until conditions stabilize.
• Investigate root cause (door ajar, power/sensor fault, ambient load).
• Once temperature remains stable and within target range, inspect contents for integrity before returning to normal use.
What maintenance and verification routines are recommended?
• Monthly: Inspect door gasket/seal, hinges and lock mechanism; confirm the unit remains level.
• Quarterly: Clean interior and exterior surfaces; verify digital thermostat, alarm and monitoring probe function.
• Periodically: Review any logged temperature data (if monitoring used), confirm calibration of monitoring equipment and maintain documented maintenance/service records for compliance.
