Double Door Blood Bank Refrigerator 658 L and 1008 L, 4°C ±1°C, 360-576 Blood Bags

The Master Science Double Door Blood Bank Refrigerator stores and protects whole blood, blood components and blood products, as well as medicines and biological products, at a uniform 4°C ±1°C. Two sizes are available: 658 L for 360 blood bags of 450 mL, and 1008 L for 576 bags.

Microprocessor-controlled forced-air cooling with electrical heat compensation and separate upper and lower readouts at 0.1°C resolution keep conditions under control, while two heated foamed glass doors and six acrylic inner doors limit cold loss during access.
