Holdover at +43 °C81 h
Autonomy (low sun)136 h

Ships complete as a kit. Program and quantity pricing on request.

Phase-change cold storage

Eliminates cold spots and holds vaccines at the right temperature.

Built-in LiFePO4 battery

More than 3,000 cycles and a minimum 10-year service life, built into the cabinet for plug-and-play installation.

Rated for low sun

Sized for just 2.0 kWh/m²/day of sun, well below the 3.5 commonly used, so a 310 Wp kit is enough. The panels go on a normal roof or ground mount, with no east-west array or pole mount. On rainy days it keeps vaccines cold for 136 hours.

Grade A freeze protection

Vaccines are protected from freezing without any adjustment by the user.

Configurable kit

Ships with battery, panels and mounting. Can be ordered without them for sites with existing solar.

Warranty: 2-year replacement parts warranty and a 7-year limited prorated warranty on the LiFePO4 battery. Replacement parts only; freight, duties, installation and field labour are not included.
