Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the ACR45LCALSTO and what is it used for?
A: The ACR45LCALSTO is a compact under-counter medical refrigerator from Summit’s Pharmacy/Medical Vaccine series. It’s designed for controlled storage of vaccines, medications, and lab materials within the +2 °C to +8 °C range for clinics, pharmacies, and healthcare offices.
Q: What are its dimensions and storage capacity?
A: It measures approximately 31.5″ (H) × 19.5″ (W) × 24.75″ (D) and offers 2.65 cu. ft. of internal storage.
Q: Can this refrigerator be built into cabinetry or used freestanding?
A: Yes. Its front-breathing design allows built-in installation under ADA-compliant counters, and its fully finished exterior also supports freestanding use.
Q: How does temperature control and monitoring work?
A: It uses a digital microprocessor thermostat, forced-air cooling for even temperature distribution, and a NIST-calibrated external thermometer showing current, high, and low internal temperatures (°C or °F). A buffered temperature probe provides more accurate, product-representative readings.
Q: What happens if the temperature goes out of the safe range?
A: An audible alarm will sound if the internal temperature rises above or falls below the programmed safe range.
Q: Is there a way to monitor or log temperature externally?
A: Yes. A pre-installed 3/8″ probe port allows connection to external monitoring systems or data loggers.
Q: What about maintenance and cleanliness — is it easy to keep sanitary?
A: Yes. It is frost-free, has a sealed back for easier cleaning and integration, and includes a step-to-open hands-free door pedal option for hygienic environments.
