So-Low | Auto-Defrost Laboratory Refrigerator & Freezer Combo with Dual Controls | Stainless Steel Design and CDC-Compliant Vaccine Storage
At Alto Med Supply, we offer high-performance So-Low auto-defrost laboratory refrigerator and freezer combination units designed for reliable, precise temperature storage in medical, research, and clinical environments.
Each unit features independent auto-defrost systems for both the refrigerator and freezer chambers, helping maintain consistent temperatures while minimizing manual maintenance.
Built with a durable stainless steel interior and exterior, these units are engineered for longevity, cleanliness, and professional-grade use.
For enhanced performance and control, each chamber operates on its own dedicated refrigeration system with separate temperature controls, allowing users to manage conditions independently based on specific storage needs.
Integrated safety features—including high and low temperature alarms, power failure alerts, and alarm dry contact relays—help protect sensitive contents and support compliance with facility monitoring systems.
Select models, including the DH-48RF and DH-70RF, offer customizable configurations, giving you the flexibility to determine which compartments function as refrigerator or freezer spaces.
Designed to meet CDC recommendations for vaccine storage, these combination units are an ideal solution for healthcare facilities, laboratories, and pharmacies seeking dependable cold storage equipment.
