Device typeBlood refrigerator/freezer: An electrically-powered device intended to be used to store and/or transport whole blood and/or blood components (e.g., blood cells, plasma) while keeping them cold (temperatures from 1° to 6° Celsius), or alternatively frozen (-18° to -30° Celsius). It includes refrigeration and freezing compartments with internal shelving, controls, sensors and alarms to signal out-of-range temperatures and power failures; its interior is typically corrosion-resistant (typically stainless steel or synthetic materials) to minimize the risk of adulteration, contamination, and/or corrosion of contents. The refrigeration unit is typically equipped with a safety thermostat to protect the products from freezing.
