This warming cabinet is designed to safely warm blankets and irrigation/injection fluids.

The dual-chambered warming cabinet is constructed with a 20 gauge stainless-steel exterior casing and door with handles and hinges designed to withstand heavy usage. Window doors and interior lighting allow observation of inventory with the doors closed, and convenient illumination when the doors are opened. The cabinet is warmed using a patented, low-heat-density electrothermal cable array. The electrothermal cable is positioned in the floor and two sides of each chamber of the warming cabinet, providing even heating of the interior chamber.

Each chamber is regulated by a separate electronic control. A fan located inside the fluid warming chamber mixes the air to prevent temperature stratification and to ensure an accurate chamber temperature within +3°F (+1.6°C) of the set-point. Each chamber has an individual electronic control consisting of a 4 digit L.E.D. display, ON/OFF key, INCREASE and DECREASE keys, integrated LOCK feature and a series of prompt sequence indicators. The (upper) blanket warming chamber has an adjustable temperature range of 90°to 200°F (32°to 94°C). This chamber also has a TIMER mode that allows the user to program the control to automatically turn on and turn off once during a 24-hour period at a selected time. This enables the blanket warming chamber (only) to be shut off automatically at night to save energy, but to turn on again in the early morning to ensure warm blankets are available.

The (lower) fluid warming chamber can be programmed to warm either irrigation fluids (IRR) or injection fluids (INJ), with separate temperature ranges provided depending on the choice selected. IRR temperature may be adjusted from 90°to 150°F (32°to 66°C), and the INJ temperature can be adjusted from 90°to 110°F (32°to 43°C). An alarm will sound if temperatures exceed 10°F (6°C) over the set-point temperature, and a TEMP indicator light will blink indicating an over-temperature condition. A warming shut-off system separate from the electronic control prevents overheating. The electronic control can easily be set to operate in Fahrenheit or Celsius. After a power failure, the cabinet will remember its programming and begin to operate as before. The power indicator light will blink to indicate a failure occurred;pressing the power key once will eliminate this blinking.

The blanket warming chamber contains one shelf, and special epoxy-coated interior surfaces. The fluid warming chamber is equipped with three (3) white, epoxy-coated wire baskets, each with a 14 liter capacity to accommodate fluids packaged in bags or bottles, each mounted on slides. The cabinet is furnished with a full perimeter stainless-steel bumper for exterior protection, and one (1) set of 5" (127mm) heavy-duty casters, two with locking brake.
