Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What temperature range does the AFZ2PVBIADADL2B maintain?

A: The freezer maintains a stable internal temperature from –30 °C to –10 °C, suitable for storing vaccines, biologics, and temperature‑sensitive pharmaceuticals.

Q: How is temperature monitoring and control handled?

A: It uses a glycol‑buffered probe (simulating stored product temperature) and an air sensor, both managed by a microprocessor controller. Temperature is displayed in °C or °F, with min/max readings, and controller settings are password-protected to prevent unauthorized changes.

Q: Does the AFZ2PVBIADADL2B support compliance logging?

A: Yes. It includes a NIST‑calibrated Digital Data Logger (DDL) that records temperature data, supports USB export, and generates reports suitable for compliance audits. There is also a ½-inch probe port for connecting external monitoring equipment if needed.

Q: What alarms and alerts does it offer?

A: The freezer has audible and visual alarms for temperature deviations, power failures, door‑ajar detection, and sensor failure. Remote alarm contacts allow integration with facility-wide monitoring systems.

Q: How secure and sanitary is the storage environment?

A: It includes a factory-installed keyed lock, magnetic door gaskets for an airtight seal, a self-closing door, and an antimicrobial handle coated with silver ions to reduce germ spread — ideal for clinical and pharmacy settings.

Q: What are the interior storage and usability features?

A: The freezer offers adjustable plastic-coated wire shelves (positionable in ½-inch increments), interior LED lighting with a rocker switch, and a white powder-coated metal interior for durability and enhanced temperature retention.
