The MED230CLF is a 230-litre medical chest freezer designed for hospitals, pharmacies, and healthcare facilities that require reliable bulk sub-zero storage in demanding environments. It operates from 0°C to −40°C and is rated for ambient temperatures up to 43°C, making it well suited to Southern African conditions.
The cabinet features a white Chromadek steel exterior with a stainless steel lid and fully stainless steel interior, delivering a practical clinical finish with easy-clean hygiene surfaces throughout. Stainless steel baskets are included for organised internal access.
Temperature is managed by a digital controller with LED display, supported by audible and visual alarms that trigger on deviation from the set point. A lockable lid, built-in voltage protection, and a pre-fitted probe hole for independent monitoring devices provide a specification appropriate for facilities operating in harsh electrical and environmental conditions.
Backed by Minus40’s service support, with optional maintenance agreements available.
Features
- 0°C to −40°C operating range — sub-zero storage for medical and pharmaceutical applications
- 43°C maximum ambient tolerance — stable performance in high-heat environments
- Chromadek exterior with stainless steel lid — durable construction for daily clinical use
- Fully stainless steel interior — hygienic, easy-clean internal surfaces
- Stainless steel baskets included — organised internal access for bulk storage
- Digital controller with LED display — stable control and clear temperature readout
- Audible and visual temperature alarms — immediate notification on deviation from set point
- Lockable lid — controls access to stored contents
- Pre-fitted monitoring probe hole — supports independent temperature logging devices
- Built-in voltage protector — guards against supply fluctuations
Safety
Audible and visual alarms activate when internal conditions move outside the set range, supporting safe storage of temperature-sensitive contents. The lockable lid helps control unauthorised access to stored medical products. Built-in voltage protection supports safe operation in environments with unstable electrical supply. The pre-fitted probe hole enables connection of independent monitoring devices for ongoing compliance logging.
Temperature Control
Temperature is maintained between 0°C and −40°C by a digital controller with LED display. The controller manages set-point stability, while audible and visual alarms trigger if internal temperatures deviate from the set range. The unit is rated to operate in ambient conditions up to 43°C for high-heat environments.
