The UCR-001G is the glass-door 75 L (2.64 cu.ft.) refrigerator in Yamato's UCR undercounter/countertop series — the same monitored 2°C to 8°C / 35°F to 46°F lab and pharmacy refrigerator as the solid-door UCR-001, but with a single glass, lockable door so contents can be inspected without opening. It is the right pick where visual inventory checks and merchandising-style visibility matter and the 75 L undercounter footprint is required. Larger 130 L glass-door storage is the UCR-101G.

Application Profile
The UCR-001G fits monitored 2–8°C point-of-use refrigeration where visibility matters:
- See-through inventory storage — the glass door lets staff verify contents and levels without breaking the cold chain, ideal where a quick visual audit matters.
- Reagent, media, and sample refrigeration at a controlled 2–8°C for shared labs and benches.
- Pharmacy and clinic display-style cold storage of refrigerated pharmaceuticals and vaccines with alarm protection.
- QC and regulated-inventory holding — microprocessor control and a full alarm suite catch door-ajar and power-failure excursions.
Choose the solid-door UCR-001 where a windowless, higher-insulation cabinet is preferred; step up to UCR-101G for 130 L glass-door capacity.
Design Architecture
Refrigeration. A hermetic compressor with R600a hydrocarbon refrigerant and forced-air circulation delivers uniform 2–8°C cooling, with automatic defrost. US EPA / SNAP-approved insulation holds temperature; the glass door is the visibility trade for a solid panel.
Control and monitoring. A microprocessor digital controller manages the setpoint, with an alarm suite covering high/low temperature, door ajar, power failure, low battery, sensor failure, and USB failure.
Cabinet and access. The painted-white steel cabinet holds 2 adjustable shelves and 1 basket, with a 1" porthole for probe pass-through. The single glass, keyed-lockable door secures contents while allowing inspection; 2 rear casters with leveling feet provide roll-and-level placement.
Electrical. Standard 115V, 60 Hz, single-phase power drawing ~2.28A running on a 15 Amp dedicated line, shipping with a NEMA 5-15 plug.
Frequently Asked Questions
What temperature range does the UCR-001G maintain? 2°C to 8°C (35°F to 46°F), with forced-air circulation and automatic defrost.
How much storage does it provide? 75 L (2.64 cu.ft.) with 2 adjustable shelves and 1 basket, in an undercounter/countertop footprint.
Why choose the glass door over the solid-door UCR-001? The single glass, keyed-lockable door lets staff verify contents without opening and breaking the cold chain; choose the solid-door UCR-001 where a windowless, higher-insulation cabinet is preferred.
What monitoring does it include? A microprocessor digital controller with an alarm suite covering high/low temperature, door ajar, power failure, low battery, sensor failure, and USB failure.
What electrical service does it require? 115V, 60 Hz, single-phase (~2.28A running) on a dedicated 15 Amp line, shipping with a NEMA 5-15 plug.
