Pharmacy Series / ACR45L

Dedicated clinical storage that fits below a lower counter.

The Accucold ACR45L gives doctors' offices, veterinary clinics and pharmacies a compact place for temperature-sensitive supplies without using a full-height cabinet. Its 2.65 cu. ft. interior sits within a 31.5-inch-high, 19.5-inch-wide cabinet. Front-breathing construction supports indoor built-in or recessed installation, while the fully finished white cabinet also allows freestanding placement.

Point-of-use workflow

Make a small storage footprint work deliberately.

Place dedicated healthcare inventory close to the team that uses it, subject to each material's storage requirements. Assign shelf locations for receiving, active supplies and stock rotation before loading. This all-refrigerator has no freezer compartment, and its published volume is not a guaranteed vial, carton or vaccine-dose count.

Organize the daily stock

Two adjustable wire shelves accommodate different package sizes. The center sensor shelf stays fixed, so plan around it rather than treating all three shelves as movable.

Manage access

A factory-installed keyed lock includes two keys. The solid door keeps the cabinet closed between retrievals, with a self-closing mechanism to help limit accidental exposure.

Choose the approach

The base door ships right-hand hinged and is user-reversible. Factory left-hand reversal can be requested with the order. Confirm the supplied swing alongside any monitoring upgrades.

ACR45L shelf detail. Keep the fixed center sensor shelf and its buffered probe assembly in place.

Shelving and airflow

Leave room for air, not just packages.

The three wire shelves comprise two adjustable/removable shelves and one fixed center shelf that holds the temperature sensor assembly. Do not remove the fixed shelf or its glass-bead-buffered bottle. Open the door fully and unload an adjustable shelf before withdrawing it.

An internal fan circulates cool air, and LED lighting helps staff see the storage layout. Keep airflow paths clear and avoid solid shelf liners such as foil or paper towels. Frost-free operation reduces routine defrost work; follow the manual if persistent frost develops after repeated openings in hot or humid conditions.

Controls and response

Read the set point and the stored-temperature trend separately.

The external digital thermostat lets staff adjust settings without opening the door. Its controller displays the set temperature; the separate standard AL3 thermometer displays current, minimum and maximum buffered temperatures to the nearest tenth of a degree, viewable in Celsius or Fahrenheit. The AL3 probe sits in a glass-bead-filled bottle, not glycol, to help reflect stored-content temperature.

The manufacturer lists 2 to 8°C operation. The manual specifies a 4°C factory preset and a controller setting range of 36 to 43°F. Verify settings and allow the cabinet to stabilize before loading. Audible and visual high/low temperature alarms and a door-open audible alarm support local response; they are not an independent recording or remote notification service.

Included versus optional

Specify recording and remote response before inventory arrives.

The base ACR45L includes the glass-bead-buffered AL3 thermometer, local alarms and a pre-installed 3/8-inch probe port. It does not include a NIST-calibrated logger or remote alarm contacts. A min/max thermometer is not a downloadable temperature record.

Choose standard monitoring, optional factory DL2B calibrated USB logging or optional factory DLPWR connected monitoring according to the facility's recordkeeping requirements. Connected equipment requires review of activation, notification arrangements and ongoing service terms. The DL2BKIT and DLPWRKIT devices illustrated with those choices are equipment examples, not promises of an identical installed location.

For a connection to a separate alarm system, request the optional TM1A remote-contacts/remote-alarm configuration. Confirm wiring, integration and who responds after hours. All factory upgrades require a complete configuration quote; they are not separately priced equipment automatically added to the base refrigerator.

This purpose-built pharmacy refrigerator is not NSF 456-certified, and the base thermometer is not supplied as a NIST-calibrated instrument. Equipment selection does not establish CDC approval or automatic VFC/VFA acceptance. Confirm program requirements, monitoring procedures and each stored material's temperature needs before ordering.

Will it fit?

Plan the lower counter, front vent and opening arc together.

The ACR45L cabinet measures 31.5 inches high, 19.5 inches wide and 22.75 inches deep. Depth increases to 23.63 inches with the handle and 41 inches with the door open 90°. These are equipment dimensions, not a finished cutout specification.

ACR45L cabinet dimensions with labelled navy height, green width and orange depth arrows: 31.5 inches high, 19.5 inches wide, 22.75 inches cabinet depth.
Height: 31.5 in.Width: 19.5 in.Cabinet depth: 22.75 in.
Tap the diagram to enlarge. Depth with handle: 23.63 inches. Depth with door open 90°: 41 inches. Confirm final setup, packed dimensions and installation clearances separately.

For indoor built-in or recessed installation, the manual requires at least 1/4 inch at each side and above the cabinet, plus 2 inches at the rear. Keep the front ventilation grille completely unobstructed and do not install behind a cabinet door. For freestanding use, the manual suggests 5 inches at the sides and rear and 4 inches above.

The low cabinet height supports planning below ADA-height counters but does not certify the accessibility of the complete installation. Account for leveling, counter structure, the handle, neighboring doors and the staff member reaching the lowest shelf. Four adjustable leveling legs help level the cabinet on a strong floor capable of supporting the loaded refrigerator.

Provide suitable grounded 115 V AC, 60 Hz power for the hospital-grade cord with green-dot plug. Preserve access for the standard probe port and any selected alarm wiring. Review the Specifications tab and manufacturer documents before finalizing the installation.

Delivery and receiving

Measure the route as well as the counter opening.

Plan receiving around a packed shipping weight of 103.5 lb and packed dimensions of 41.5 inches high, 29 inches wide and 31 inches deep. The unpacked refrigerator weighs 79 lb. Confirm final packaging and the complete access route before scheduling delivery.

For the base refrigerator, standard dock or liftgate delivery within the contiguous United States and Washington, DC uses the existing checkout calculation. Alaska, Hawaii, US territories and international destinations require a destination-specific quote.

Inside delivery and white-glove placement are separate quoted services. Check doorways, turns, elevators and the final room before receiving. Keep the unit upright and follow the manufacturer's setup and stabilization instructions before placing sensitive stock inside.

Buyer questions

Details that help you decide

Can ACR45L be built into a lower counter opening?

Yes. It supports indoor built-in or recessed installation as well as freestanding use. Keep at least 1/4 inch at each side and top and 2 inches behind for built-in placement, with the front grille unobstructed. Do not put it behind a cabinet door.

Does the 31.5-inch height establish ADA compliance for my room?

No. The cabinet is sized for lower ADA-height counters, but the full installation still needs review for counter clearance, reach, door swing and accessible routes. Cabinet height alone is not approval of the finished space.

What temperatures can I set?

The controller setting range specified in the manual is 36 to 43°F, with a 4°C factory preset. Manufacturer-stated operating range is 2 to 8°C. Verify the selected settings, monitoring readings and the storage requirements of your materials before loading.

Are all three shelves adjustable?

No. Two wire shelves are adjustable/removable. The center sensor shelf is fixed and must remain in place with the glass-bead-buffered probe bottle. Leave space for circulation instead of filling every gap.

Is a NIST-calibrated data logger included?

No. Standard ACR45L monitoring uses the separate AL3 glass-bead-buffered thermometer with current and min/max readings. Optional factory DL2B logging or DLPWR connected monitoring must be requested separately and confirmed in the configuration quote.

Does ACR45L include remote alarm contacts?

No. Request optional TM1A if you need the factory remote-contacts/remote-alarm configuration. Confirm external-system wiring and response arrangements. The standard probe port does not provide remote alerts.

Is this refrigerator NSF 456-certified or CDC-approved?

No NSF 456 certification or CDC approval is claimed for ACR45L. Purpose-built healthcare design does not automatically satisfy VFC/VFA acceptance. Confirm the selected equipment, independent monitoring and facility procedures with the applicable program.

Can the door be supplied left-hand hinged?

Yes, factory LHD reversal can be requested for a quote. The base door ships right-hand hinged and is user-reversible; follow the manual and confirm any restrictions associated with selected factory monitoring before arranging reversal.

What warranty and return terms apply?

Accucold lists two years parts and labor and five years compressor coverage, subject to written terms and service limits. Start order-return requests with Blue Tiger Scientific before shipping anything. Eligibility requires review, and factory-upgraded equipment may be excluded from ordinary returns.

    Blue Tiger Scientific is a reseller, not the manufacturer. We manage your purchase and order-return requests. Accucold, a division of Felix Storch, Inc. (FSI), handles manufacturer warranty coverage, service and repairs directly.

    Ordering and delivery

    Availability, dispatch timing and freight depend on the selected equipment, configuration and destination. Delivery dates shown on this page are estimates, not guarantees. Supplier processing, lead time and carrier transit can affect arrival. Contact Blue Tiger before ordering if you have a firm deadline or specific receiving requirements.

    For the base equipment, standard dock or liftgate delivery charges to the 48 contiguous United States and Washington, DC are calculated at checkout. Select dock delivery only if a suitable receiving dock and unloading capability are available. Alaska, Hawaii, US territories and international destinations require a quote. Measure the complete access route and prepare the installation site using the manufacturer’s instructions.

    Standard delivery does not include inside placement, stairs or white-glove services. If additional services are needed, Blue Tiger Scientific will review access, elevators, delivery level and placement requirements and provide a separate quote for your approval before any additional service charge is billed.

    Inspect your delivery

    Inspect the shipment when it arrives. Keep the original cartons, packing materials and delivery paperwork. Report damage, shortages or an incorrect item to Blue Tiger immediately at info@bluetigerscientific.com, with photographs of the item, packaging, shipping label and delivery receipt.

    For freight arranged by FSI or delivered on FSI trucks, FSI instructs recipients to refuse visibly damaged units and have the driver record and acknowledge the damage on the delivery paperwork. On a multi-unit shipment, refuse the damaged units rather than the undamaged remainder. Concealed damage must be reported within five days after delivery acceptance; contact Blue Tiger immediately so the manufacturer’s reporting deadline can be met.

    For customer-nominated, collect or third-party-carrier shipments, claims must be pursued with that carrier. Do not assume FSI will accept a freight-damage return. Contact Blue Tiger for the order information and instructions before arranging any return shipment.

    Order returns must start with Blue Tiger

    All order-return requests must be initiated through Blue Tiger Scientific at info@bluetigerscientific.com. Accucold/FSI does not provide an automatic buyer’s-remorse return right. Eligibility and written authorization must be confirmed before anything is shipped.

    • Contact Blue Tiger within 14 days of delivery to request review, subject to the product-specific manufacturer restrictions. FSI does not accept an eligible factory-sealed return after 30 days from its original shipment date, so request review promptly enough for an authorized return to meet that deadline.
    • Include your Blue Tiger order number, exact manufacturer part number, serial number if applicable, quantity, contact details and reason for the request. Provide the photographs required for the manufacturer’s review.
    • Wait for written return authorization and the designated return address. Do not send an order return to Blue Tiger’s business address or directly to FSI without these instructions.
    • For an eligible non-defective stock return, FSI requires the original unopened carton and an undamaged appliance in new condition. Opened packages are not accepted under that return route.
    • FSI applies a 25% restocking charge per eligible returned item and may charge a higher percentage on larger orders. Your authorization will state the applicable charges. Original outbound freight, including embedded freight on a shipment, reduces the return credit.
    • The customer is responsible for approved non-defective return freight and insurance. Use the authorized carrier and instructions supplied for this heavy equipment. Damage, incorrect-item and defect reports are reviewed separately from an unwanted-product request.

    Customized and factory-upgraded equipment

    FSI excludes made-to-order models with customizations from ordinary returns. Its listed exclusions include factory-installed thermometers, alarms, data loggers and digital-thermostat upgrades, as well as specified lock, door and cabinet customizations. Do not assume a factory-upgraded configuration is returnable. Confirm the exact model’s eligibility before ordering.

    Manufacturer warranty and service go directly to Accucold

    The ACR45L manufacturer documentation lists a two-year limited warranty for the appliance and a five-year compressor warranty. Extended compressor replacement coverage does not include replacement labor. Monitoring devices and service subscriptions have their own applicable terms; do not assume they share the cabinet’s coverage.

    Contact Accucold/FSI directly for warranty coverage questions, claims, service assignment and repair authorization: service@accucold.com or 718-893-3900. Technical questions can be directed to techsupport@accucold.com. Have your model, serial number, proof of purchase, delivery location and a description of the problem ready.

    Blue Tiger Scientific does not administer manufacturer warranty claims, authorize warranty repairs or provide warranty service. Do not commission an independent repair or send equipment for service until FSI provides authorization and instructions. Service not assigned or authorized by FSI may not be covered.

    Manufacturer coverage depends on proper installation, operation and maintenance. The written warranty includes exclusions for matters such as misuse, improper installation, unauthorized modifications and consequential losses, including product spoilage. Equipment warranty coverage is not a guarantee of stored-material value or reimbursement.

    International destinations and service areas

    International customers should request a quote to confirm the equipment configuration, destination eligibility and shipping arrangements. Confirm responsibility for any import duties, taxes and brokerage in the quote. International returns are not permitted under Blue Tiger Scientific’s published return policy.

    Warranty coverage and service arrangements depend on the destination and written model warranty. Contact Accucold/FSI directly before purchase to confirm coverage and authorized service for your exact location; do not assume worldwide on-site coverage.
