New Medi+ WMP335 can slot into tight spaces, maximising storage capacity
Williams has expanded its Medi+ range of medical and pharmaceutical refrigeration with the launch of the WMP335, an ultra-slim cabinet that will fit into the tightest of spaces. Despite its slimmed down dimensions, the WMP335 offers all the advanced features of standard Medi+ products and delivers a storage capacity of just over 335 litres.
The Medi+ WMP335 responds to market demand for a pharmaceutical grade cabinet that combines a small footprint with a large capacity. In fact, with a footprint of just 595mm by 684mm, it’s the slimmest upright cabinet in the Medi+ range and can be slotted into positions where a standard cabinet would simply be too big, helping maximise the available space. The model is available in both chilled (1 to 4°C) and freezer (-18 to -21°C) versions.
“As the Covid-19 vaccines roll out lots of medical facilities are needing to increase their refrigerated storage, but many don’t have space for a conventional pharmaceutical cabinet,” says Malcolm Harling, sales and marketing director of Williams. “The WMP335 fits the bill, delivering the precise, stable temperature controls that pharmaceutical refrigeration demands.”
All Medi+ cabinets are designed and engineered to operate efficiently up to 43°C ambient, ensuring they maintain a stable temperature, even if the door is opened multiple times during the day, for example in a vaccine administration programme.
The Medi+ WMP335 features rugged construction, with stainless steel exterior and interior base; 80mm thick, high performance eco-friendly insulation (with low GWP and zero ODP); and an enhanced internal airflow design that ensures constant temperature throughout the cabinet. An added bonus is the fact that it features bottom-mounted refrigeration, which makes it suitable for sites with low ceilings, as it allows plenty of room for heat from the system to dissipate, as well as giving easy access for servicing and maintenance. As with all Medi+ cabinets, the WMP335 is classed as having a spark-free interior.
The new cabinet also features Williams’ Medi+ Controller. It ensures precise temperature control, using decimal point operation, and has a condenser cleaning warning sensor to ensure optimum performance is maintained. Other alarms include audio and visual warnings for high or low temperature and for if the door is kept open. The Controller has a maximum and minimum temperature memory, giving accurate readings and keeping a log, which operators can access to show proof of performance.
The Controller also features a Modbus network data connection allowing remote monitoring of temperatures, alarms and defrost, via a third party system. This offers an extra level of security and peace of mind, as well as giving in-depth insight into the cabinet’s performance.
The NHS and other public sector organisations have access to the Williams Medi+ range via the ESPO Contract 98 and M98 Frameworks. The range features a choice of sizes to suit a wide range of applications, including single-door cabinets, two-door cabinets and compact undercounter models.
