The Thermco ACC895REFV Digital Refrigerator Thermometer is a NIST traceable refrigerator thermometer with a 5 mL glycol bottle probe, large triple display, min/max memory, and programmable high and low temperature alarms.
Designed for refrigerator temperature monitoring, this thermometer is well suited for Canadian pharmacies, vaccine fridges, clinical labs, research labs, food QA/QC teams, laboratory refrigerators, and cold storage applications where quick visual temperature checks and min/max records are important.
Designed for Refrigerator and Cold Storage Monitoring
- Vaccine refrigerator temperature monitoring
- Pharmacy and clinical fridge checks
- Laboratory refrigerator monitoring
- Food QA/QC and ingredient storage
- Research, healthcare, and production cold storage
- Canadian facilities needing a practical min/max refrigerator thermometer
Why Choose the Thermco ACC895REFV?
- 5 mL glycol bottle probe: The probe is housed in a bottle filled with Bio-Safe glycol/water media to help buffer short air temperature fluctuations from door openings or defrost cycles.
- Triple temperature display: Shows current, minimum, and maximum temperatures for quick refrigerator status checks.
- NIST traceable: Listed as NIST traceable and individually serialized for documentation support.
- Certified refrigerator point: ACC895REFV is listed for refrigerator use and certified at +4.0°C.
- Programmable alarms: High and low alarm limits can be set to alert users when temperatures move outside the selected limits.
- Audible alarm: Alarm sounds when the current temperature rises above or falls below the programmed temperature limits.
- Min/max memory: Records minimum and maximum temperature readings between resets.
- Large digital display: Easy-to-read screen supports fast daily checks in busy labs, pharmacies, and QA/QC areas.
- External probe design: Allows the display to remain outside the refrigerator while the glycol bottle probe monitors the internal temperature.
- Battery operated: Supplied with an AAA alkaline battery for simple setup.
- Canadian purchasing support: Supplied by Cambridge Environmental Products with CAD pricing and support from a Canadian-owned company.

Best-Fit Applications
| Application | Why It Fits |
| Vaccine fridges | The 5 mL glycol bottle probe helps represent stored product temperature more closely than a bare air probe. |
| Pharmacies and healthcare facilities | Large display, min/max memory, alarm limits, and NIST traceability support routine fridge checks and documentation workflows. |
| Clinical and research labs | Useful for monitoring laboratory refrigerators holding temperature-sensitive materials, reagents, or samples. |
| Food QA/QC | Supports routine cold storage temperature checks for ingredients, retained samples, and production QA areas. |
| General cold storage | Practical for refrigerators where users need current, minimum, and maximum temperature visibility. |
Why Use a Glycol Bottle Probe?
A bare temperature probe can react quickly to short air temperature changes when a refrigerator door is opened. The glycol bottle probe helps buffer these short fluctuations and gives a reading that better represents the temperature response of stored materials.
This makes glycol bottle thermometers useful in refrigerators storing vaccines, reagents, samples, food ingredients, and other temperature-sensitive products where temporary air changes should not be confused with longer product temperature changes.
Use and Monitoring Notes
Place the glycol bottle probe inside the refrigerator in the monitoring location required by your internal procedure. Keep the display outside the refrigerator where staff can view the current, minimum, and maximum readings without opening the door.
Set the high and low alarm limits according to your refrigerator requirement, product storage requirement, or internal SOP. Reset the minimum and maximum memory before a new monitoring period when required by your procedure.
This thermometer supports routine temperature monitoring, but it is not a data logger. If your application requires downloadable records, continuous electronic logs, remote alerts, or audit-ready time-stamped reporting, contact Cambridge Environmental Products before ordering so we can help compare data logger options.
Canadian Buyer Note
This thermometer is a practical option for Canadian buyers who need a simple NIST traceable refrigerator thermometer with glycol probe buffering, min/max display, and alarm limits. For regulated storage programs, always confirm your thermometer, documentation, and monitoring procedure meet your internal SOP and applicable requirements.

Common Questions About the Thermco ACC895REFV Refrigerator Thermometer
What is the Thermco ACC895REFV used for?
The Thermco ACC895REFV is used for refrigerator temperature monitoring in vaccine fridges, pharmacies, labs, food QA/QC areas, clinical facilities, and general cold storage applications.
Why does this thermometer use a glycol probe?
The glycol bottle probe helps buffer short air temperature changes caused by door openings or defrost cycles, providing a reading that better represents stored product temperature response than a bare air probe.
Is this thermometer NIST traceable?
Yes. The ACC895REFV is listed as NIST traceable and individually serialized.
What temperature is this refrigerator thermometer certified at?
The ACC895REFV refrigerator version is listed as certified at +4.0°C.
Does it show minimum and maximum temperatures?
Yes. The large triple display shows current, minimum, and maximum temperature readings.
Does it have an alarm?
Yes. The thermometer has programmable high and low alarm limits with an audible alarm when the current reading moves outside the set limits.
Is this a data logger?
No. This is a digital refrigerator thermometer with min/max memory and alarm limits. If you need downloadable records, remote alerts, or continuous time-stamped data, a temperature data logger may be a better fit.
