The Haier HYCD-469A is a combination pharmacy refrigerator and freezer in one upright cabinet — a 245 L (8.65 cu ft) 2–8°C refrigerator stacked over a 200 L (7.1 cu ft) freezer — with two fully independent, individually controlled chambers. It lets a clinic, pharmacy, or lab cover both vaccine/reagent refrigeration and frozen storage from a single footprint on a standard 115V/60Hz outlet.

Application Profile
Many clinical and pharmacy sites need both 2–8°C refrigeration for vaccines and reagents and frozen storage down to −40°C, but lack the floor space or budget for two separate cabinets. The HYCD-469A solves that with two independent chambers in one upright — each self-contained, separately refrigerated, and individually controlled with its own door. The refrigerator holds a tight 2–8°C with ±3°C uniformity and forced-air cooling with cycle defrost; the freezer runs cold-wall cooling from −15°C to −40°C. Stainless-steel interiors in both chambers resist corrosion and clean easily.
Environmentally, each chamber uses a low-GWP hydrocarbon refrigerant — R600a in the refrigerator, R290 in the freezer — with CFC-free polyurethane insulation. The refrigerator chamber adds a double-paned glass viewing window and LED interior lighting for stock checks without opening the door.
Design Architecture
Both chambers report through a microprocessor controller with digital display — refrigerator temperature to 0.1°C resolution, freezer to 1°C — and drive a full alarm suite: high/low temperature, sensor error, power failure, door ajar, high ambient temperature, low battery, and remote alarm. A standard USB port (with optional printer) makes temperature records easy to export for compliance. Three adjustable shelves organize the refrigerator; the freezer uses fixed shelves with optional drawers.
Frequently Asked Questions
What are the two temperature zones? A 2–8°C refrigerator (245 L) and a −15 to −40°C freezer (200 L), each independently controlled with its own door.
Are the two chambers really independent? Yes — each is self-contained with its own refrigeration circuit and controls, using R600a for the fridge and R290 for the freezer.
Does it run on a standard outlet? Yes — 115V/60Hz, 640 W total.
Can I export temperature data for compliance? A standard USB port is included, with an optional printer, to capture temperature records.
How uniform is the refrigerator? ±3°C uniformity across the 2–8°C refrigerator chamber; the freezer holds ±5°C.
Ordering & Configuration
The HYCD-469A is a capital purchase: request a quote for pricing and lead time. Backed by Haier Biomedical's manufacturer warranty — confirm current terms with your quote.
Choose the HYCD-469A when one site needs both 2–8°C and frozen storage but has room or budget for a single cabinet. Pick a dedicated HYC pharmacy refrigerator if you only need 2–8°C, or a dedicated DW freezer if you only need frozen storage and want maximum capacity in that band.
