Accucold 18 Cu.Ft. Upright Controlled Room Temperature Cabinet ARG18PV-CRT

ARG18PV-CRT

The Accucold 18 Cu.Ft. Upright Controlled Room Temperature Cabinet ARG18PV-CRT is a professional and reliable solution for maintaining consistent room temperature. With its upright design and precise temperature control, this cabinet ensures optimal storage conditions for products that require a particular temperature range. Ideal for any industry expert looking for precise and efficient storage.

Controlled Room Temperature (CRT) cabinets are designed and purpose-built for ambient medication and vaccine storage in pharmacy and patient care areas

Accucold's Performance Series Controlled Room Temperature Cabinets offer purpose-built storage solutions for medication requiring a stable room temperature environment. 

The ARG18PV-CRT is an upright 18 cuf.ft. unit pre-set to 72ºF, with an adjustable range from 68º to 77ºF. 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 unit 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.

Inside, the ARG18PV-CRT utilizes adjustable cycle defrost operation to avoid temperature spikes. Optimized forced air cooling with one internal fan ensures excellent temperature stability and uniformity with rapid recovery after door openings. The adjustable plastic-coated wire shelves can be positioned at 1/2" increments to accommodate virtually any sized item. We include seven shelves, more than competitor products providing to maximize interior shelving storage area. 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. 

The ARG18PV-CRT 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 double pane tempered glass door provides a full view of the interior. The user-reversible door ships with a right hand swing and self-closing function. This model includes a factory-installed lock and ships with two keys for staff use. Powerful magnetic gaskets ensure a positive seal. Four pre-installed 3" high casters with brakes make it easier to move as needed.

Designed with hydrocarbon refrigerant, the ARG18PV-CRT provides an energy efficient solution to stabilized room temperature storage, even when ambient temperatures can reach temperatures as cold as 68ºF or warm as 86ºF.  This unit is Pyxis, Omnicell, and AcuDose RX compatible. Additional sizes, as well as solid door options, are also available.
