The LAB400SHD is a 400-litre upright laboratory fridge designed for laboratories, research institutions, hospitals, and pharmacy facilities that require reliable, hygienic cold storage of samples, media, reagents, pharmaceutical compounds, and medical products. Operating between 2°C and 8°C with a maximum ambient tolerance of 35°C, it delivers consistent temperature performance with alarm coverage and compliance features suited to laboratory environments.
The cabinet is constructed from stainless steel inside and out, providing corrosion resistance and easy-clean hygiene surfaces for clinical and scientific settings. Six perforated stainless steel shelves — three adjustable and three pull-out — support organised storage across the internal volume and promote airflow around stored items.
Fan-assisted cooling supports even temperature distribution, and automatic defrost operates without manual intervention. Anti-freeze protection helps prevent stored products from being inadvertently frozen, supporting safe storage of vaccines, medicines, and biological materials.
A digital controller with LED display manages the set temperature, with audible and visual alarms for temperature deviation, dirty condenser, and door open conditions. A service-access door supports routine condenser maintenance. A pre-fitted monitoring probe hole supports independent logging devices for compliance requirements, and a built-in voltage protector guards against electrical supply irregularities.
Features
- 2°C to 8°C operating range — controlled cold storage for laboratory and medical applications
- 400-litre capacity — practical upright storage for laboratories and clinics
- Six perforated stainless steel shelves — three adjustable and three pull-out for flexible organisation
- Fan-assisted cooling — supports even temperature distribution
- Automatic defrost — reduces maintenance and supports stable operation
- Anti-freeze protection — reduces risk of unintended freezing
- Audible and visual alarms — temperature deviation, dirty condenser, and door open
- Stainless steel interior and exterior — hygienic, corrosion-resistant construction
- Pre-fitted monitoring probe hole — supports independent temperature logging

Safety
Audible and visual alarms activate to alert staff to temperature deviation, dirty condenser maintenance requirements, and door-open conditions, enabling prompt corrective action. Anti-freeze protection reduces the risk of stored products being inadvertently frozen. A lockable door supports controlled access, and a built-in voltage protector supports safe operation where electrical supply is unstable. The monitoring probe hole supports independent logging devices for compliance records.
Temperature Control
Temperature is maintained between 2°C and 8°C by a digital controller with LED display. Fan-assisted cooling supports an even temperature profile throughout the cabinet, and automatic defrost operates without manual intervention. Anti-freeze protection helps prevent unintended freezing. The unit is rated for ambient temperatures up to 35°C.
