Summit MomCube Breast Milk Refrigerator Description:
Accuold’s MOMCUBE™ is a highly reliable, hospital-grade refrigerator designed for mother’s milk storage. All MOMCUBE™ units are an ideal addition to employee wellness rooms, daycare centers, and work environments seeking to adhere to Section 4207 of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act. They are laboratory-tested to stay within the CDC’s recommended temperature range, whereas similar dorm and residential-style units operate at temperatures that are unsuitable for breast milk storage.
Inside, the Summit MLRS15MCLK MomCube Breast Milk Refrigerator has eight lockers, each with a combination lock to ensure privacy for mothers storing their milk, which can be reset or overridden as needed with included master keys. A cycle defrost system allows for little to no maintenance of the unit, while a soft LED light is included with an on/off switch for easy viewing of interior.
The MOMCUBE™ includes an LED display that allows the user to monitor and change the temperature as needed. Several alarms ensure temperature stability, and the factory-installed external door lock offers added security. 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. A hospital grade cord with ‘green dot’ plug is also included for added safety in high traffic areas.
MOMCUBE™ units of various capacity, heights, and interiors are available. Explore the entire MOMCUBE™ Series on our website or contact our sales team at 888-750-3800 for more options.

Shipping FAQ
How long does shipping take after placing an order?
Typically ships in 5-7 business days when in stock; transit time depends on destination.
Is international shipping available and what should I consider for Melbourne, Australia?
Yes — international shipping can be arranged. For delivery to Melbourne, Australia, please consider:
• Import duties and customs clearance, including GST.
• Site access: verify doorway width, corridor/elevator clearance and floor-loading capacity for the palletized unit.
• Electrical compatibility: this U.S. model is rated 115 V AC/60 Hz; if using in Australia (230 V/50 Hz), ensure you order the correct variant or install a suitable transformer.
How is the unit packaged for transit and what site requirements should be met?
This unit ships palletized with protective packaging. Unpacked footprint approx. 183 cm H × 59 cm W × 62 cm D; allow door-open clearance of ~118 cm. Ensure your delivery site has a firm, level surface, sufficient entry/door clearance and appropriate handling equipment (pallet jack/lift) if needed.
What should I do if my shipment arrives damaged or is delayed?
Upon delivery inspect for visible damage or transit delay. If damage is found: document the condition via photographs, retain the packaging and delivery receipt, then contact your supplier with your order/tracking details to initiate a freight claim or replacement.
Application FAQ
How do I install and set up the MLRS15MCLK?
1. Place the unit upright on a firm, level surface in a climate-controlled room. Allow clearance behind, on both sides and above for ventilation; ensure full door-swing clearance (~118 cm).
2. Connect to a dedicated grounded outlet matching the unit’s specification (115 V AC/60 Hz). If installing in Australia, verify correct variant or use a transformer.
3. Plug in the unit and power it on. Set the controller to the recommended range (33-40 °F / ~0-4.4 °C). Allow several hours (typically 3-4 hrs) for internal temperature to stabilize before loading breast milk.
4. Verify the temperature display is functioning, alarms (high/low temp, door-open, power-loss) respond correctly, lockers are accessible and secure, and shelving is positioned with unobstructed airflow before routine use.
What best practices should I follow when storing breast milk or sensitive contents?
• Use the individual lockers so each mother has her own storage space; clearly label contents (name, date/time, volume) for traceability.
• Minimize door openings and ensure the door is closed fully to maintain internal temperature stability.
• Avoid overfilling lockers or blocking airflow — maintain spacing for proper circulation.
• Regularly inspect the door gasket/seal, handle mechanism, and lock condition; keep internal temperature logs and alarm-event records if your facility protocol requires it.
What should I do if a temperature excursion or power interruption occurs?
If the internal temperature leaves the safe range, or a power interruption occurs:
• Record the event: date/time, observed temperature, impacted contents.
• Relocate critical contents (breast milk) to validated backup refrigeration until conditions stabilize.
• Investigate the root cause (for example: door left open, ambient heat load, sensor/power or power fault).
• Once the unit returns to stable operation with internal temperature within range, verify contents are safe before returning them to storage.
What maintenance and verification routines are recommended?
• Monthly: Inspect door gasket/seal, hinges, handle/lock for wear or damage.
• Quarterly: Clean condenser coils and ventilation pathways; ensure fan operation and unobstructed airflow.
• Periodically: Test audible/visual alarms, doors, and any remote monitoring contacts; calibrate sensors as required. Maintain service, calibration, and temperature-log records for audit readiness.
