The Haier HYC-290 is a 290 L (10.2 cu ft) upright pharmacy refrigerator with a double-layer tempered glass door, holding the pharmacy-grade +2~8°C band for vaccines, biologics and reagents. Forced-air circulation with automatic defrost delivers consistent cabinet temperature, while the glass door lets staff verify stock without breaking the cold chain. On a standard 115V/60Hz supply with five adjustable shelves and full alarm monitoring, it is a mainstream choice for pharmacies, clinics and clinical labs.

Application Profile
The HYC-290 is engineered for reliable +2~8°C storage with everyday practicality. Its double-layer tempered glass door carries an electronic heater that suppresses condensation even at 32°C / 80% RH ambient, so the contents stay visible for quick stock checks and audits without opening the cabinet — a real workflow benefit in busy pharmacies. A hermetically sealed compressor with forced-air circulation and automatic defrost keeps the 2~8°C band stable, and self-closing doors with magnetic gaskets ensure a positive seal after every use.
Inside, five adjustable plastic-coated wire shelves promote airflow and flexible loading across the 290 L volume, and a top-mounted unique-key lock secures controlled or high-value stock. The microprocessor controller displays to 0.1°C and drives audible/visual alarms for high/low temperature, power failure, door ajar, low battery and sensor error, with a standard rear remote-alarm contact and USB data output for compliance records. A 25 mm probe access port accepts user-supplied monitoring equipment.
