Description

The Laboratory Refrigerator CHL 2 ATEX is a professionally engineered cold-storage solution designed specifically for use in hazardous or classified environments where flammable gases, vapors, or combustible dust may be present. Certified to comply with ATEX explosion-protection standards, this refrigerator combines precise temperature control with enhanced safety features to prevent ignition risks in sensitive laboratory and industrial settings.

The unit maintains a stable temperature range of 0 ?C to +15 ?C, making it suitable for storing temperature-sensitive samples, reagents, chemicals, and materials that require consistent cooling. A forced air circulation system ensures even temperature distribution throughout the chamber, minimizing hotspots and improving overall temperature stability.

At the core of the CHL 2 ATEX is a microprocessor-based touchscreen controller designed for intuitive operation and accurate temperature management. All user interfaces, electrical components, and internal systems are selected or modified to meet explosion-protected design criteria, reducing the risk of sparks and ensuring compliance with ATEX Zone specifications.

The interior features internal LED lighting for clear visibility, stainless-steel wire shelves for adjustable and durable storage, and a door lock to secure contents. An open-door alarm alerts users to accidental openings or temperature deviations, supporting sample integrity and safety. Optional external sensor access enables additional monitoring or third-party qualification probes.

Built with robust materials and an enclosure optimized for hazardous environments, the CHL 2 ATEX is ideal for laboratories, refineries, chemical plants, pharmaceutical facilities, and industrial research centers that require explosion-protected refrigeration without compromising performance. Its combination of safety certification, precision cooling, and laboratory-grade features makes it a dependable choice where standard refrigeration equipment cannot be used.
