Medical refrigeration

Choosing medical refrigeration

Medicines, vaccines and samples need documented storage temperatures. Depending on the material, equipment may operate at +2…+8 °C, −20 °C, −40 °C or −86 °C. Check temperature uniformity, alarms, recording and locks against the intended storage requirements.

Compare temperature range, capacity, glass or solid doors, temperature/door/power alarms, downloadable logs and sensor backup power. Obtain the exact model's documented compliance for the intended medical or laboratory application.

What to check

• Check the required temperature and permitted fluctuation against the stored product's instructions, rather than applying one tolerance to all vaccines.
• Alarms and logs: how deviations are detected and documented.
• Glass doors help locate items quickly; solid doors may suit longer-term storage.
• Locks and access control.
• Backup power and power-failure alerts.

Where to use it

Pharmacies and medical centres may need a +2…+8 °C medicine fridge; laboratories may need −20/−40 °C freezers. Blood components require equipment specifically suitable for their storage requirements.
