Description

The Laboratory Refrigerator CHL 6 ATEX is a professional-grade, explosion-protected cold-storage solution built for laboratories and industrial facilities operating in hazardous or classified environments. Certified to meet ATEX safety standards, it is engineered to minimize ignition risks while providing reliable, uniform cooling for sensitive materials.

The unit maintains a controlled temperature range of 0??C to +15??C, making it suitable for storing chemicals, reagents, biological samples, pharmaceuticals, and other temperature-sensitive materials. A forced air circulation system ensures even temperature distribution throughout the chamber and rapid recovery after door openings, maintaining consistent performance even during frequent use.

Temperature control and monitoring are managed through a microprocessor-based touchscreen controller, offering precise regulation and intuitive operation. All electrical components and interfaces are designed to comply with ATEX requirements, ensuring safe operation in environments with flammable gases, vapors, or dust.

The CHL 6 ATEX features internal LED lighting for clear visibility, stainless-steel wire shelves for durable and flexible storage, and a lockable door system to secure valuable contents. An open-door alarm alerts users to accidental openings or temperature deviations, while an optional external sensor port allows integration of third-party monitoring devices for compliance or quality assurance needs.

Constructed with high-quality materials and robust engineering, the CHL 6 ATEX is designed for continuous operation in demanding laboratory and industrial environments. It is an ideal solution for chemical laboratories, pharmaceutical production facilities, oil and gas industries, and research centers that require certified explosion-protected refrigeration without compromising capacity, performance, or reliability.
