Heated glass door

Anti-condensation outer pane kept just above dew point. Contents visible without opening the door — reduces door-open frequency and stabilizes interior temperature.

Calibrated thermometer

Digital display with min/max recall for daily log readings. Calibration certificate included. Supports Health Canada vaccine storage documentation requirements.

High/low temperature alarm

Audible and visual alerts triggered by door-open excursion and temperature deviation. Factory calibrated before shipment.

USB data port

Direct USB extraction of temperature logs for compliance records. No proprietary software required — exports as standard CSV for audit and inspection files.

Adjustable shelving

Five reconfigurable shelves and storage baskets. Adapts to vial trays, insulin pens, and biologics storage formats without additional hardware.

Lockable door

Keyed lock standard. Meets College of Pharmacy requirements for controlled-substance-adjacent storage areas.

Battery backup

Sealed lead-acid backup keeps display and alarms active during power outages. Compact under-counter footprint includes integrated battery — no external UPS required for short-term protection.

Top cooling system

Patented forced-air cooling distributed from the top of the cabinet ensures inner temperature uniformity within ±0.5°C across all shelves. Eliminates hot and cold zones common in side-cooled units.

High-efficiency inverter compressor

Variable-speed compressor adjusts cooling output based on real-time demand. Reduces energy consumption by ~35% versus standard fixed-speed compressors and operates at significantly lower noise levels.

Is the NOR-5L126 the right fit for a single dispensing station?

Yes. The NOR-5L126 at 4.45 cu ft fits beside a standard dispensing workstation and clears most under-counter cabinets at the cabinet's 31.9″ height. It's designed for clinic counters, small lab benches, and pharmacy dispensing stations where staff need vaccines or biologics within arm's reach. Typical use: 30–80 door-opens per day, weekly restock from a central depot. For higher throughput, step up to an upright like the NOR-5L316 or NOR-5L416.

What outlet does the NOR-5L126 require?

Standard 115V / 60Hz · 15A outlet, no dedicated circuit. Rated current is 2 A, well within standard residential and commercial wall outlet capacity. Plug-and-go installation — no electrician required for standard placement. The unit ships with a 20 h · coin battery battery backup that keeps the alarm and display active during brief outages.

How much clearance does the NOR-5L126 need for ventilation?

Minimum 4″ rear · 2″ sides minimum. Do not install in a fully enclosed cabinet without rear ventilation — insufficient airflow is the leading cause of compressor overload. Front clearance should allow the door to open fully. If your space is tight or you're installing inside a cabinet, share your dimensions and we'll confirm fit before ordering.

How does the heated glass door behave on an under-counter unit?

The NOR-5L126 uses an electrically heated glass door designed to prevent condensation while maintaining interior visibility. Contents are visible without opening, which reduces door-open frequency and helps maintain temperature stability — especially important on smaller units where each door-open represents a larger percentage of the cabinet volume.

Is white-glove install available for the NOR-5L126?

Yes for GTA delivery. White-glove includes inside placement under your counter or in your designated dispensing area, unpacking, and removal of all packaging. We do not include electrical connection — that's plug-in to standard 15A outlet. For sites outside the GTA, threshold delivery applies and our partner couriers can place the unit at your loading dock or main entrance. Contact us with your address and target install date to confirm scope.
