SDD Ref. MetaFridge
SDD Ref. MetaFridge (Product Code: SLE/CCE/01) is a solar direct drive (SDD) vaccine refrigerator used to keep vaccines cold at health posts and immunisation sites that run on solar power rather than mains electricity. It provides 50 litres of net vaccine storage with Grade A freeze protection and R600a refrigerant, and is delivered as a complete plug-and-play system with all necessary components and fittings. It is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India.

What Is an SDD Vaccine Refrigerator Used For?
Vaccines lose potency if they get too warm or freeze, so remote clinics without a reliable grid need a refrigerator that keeps working from sunlight alone. In a solar direct drive design the refrigerator is powered straight from its solar array, and SDD systems generally avoid the separate battery bank used by older solar fridges. With 50 litres of net storage, this model suits a smaller health post or an outreach store that holds a modest stock of vaccine.
Install the cabinet in a shaded, ventilated room whose temperature stays between +10°C and +43°C, mount the panels where nothing shades them, and keep the panels clean. A temperature logger inside the cabinet gives staff a daily record. Unlike a mains-powered laboratory refrigerator in India's city hospitals, this unit is chosen precisely because it does not depend on the grid.
What to Specify When Ordering
- The number of units and the installation sites, including their typical room temperatures.
- Local solar conditions, so the matched solar power system can be confirmed against the 3.5 kWh/m² per 24 hours reference.
- Whether you need temperature monitoring devices or vaccine carriers in the same order.
Supplier

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the storage capacity of the SDD Ref. MetaFridge?
The SDD Ref. MetaFridge has a net vaccine storage volume of 50 litres. This is the usable space for vaccines inside the refrigerator cabinet, making it a compact option for health posts and smaller immunisation sites.
What ambient temperatures can it operate in?
The SDD Ref. MetaFridge is specified for an ambient operating temperature from a minimum of +10°C to a maximum of +43°C. Install it in a room that stays within this range and is shaded and well ventilated.
What does Grade A freeze protection mean?
Grade A is the freeze-protection rating given in the SDD Ref. MetaFridge specification. It refers to freeze protection that does not depend on the user adjusting a thermostat, which helps protect freeze-sensitive vaccines. Contact us for detailed performance information.
Is the solar power system included?
The SDD Ref. MetaFridge is described as a complete stand-alone SDD refrigerator with all necessary components and fittings. Its solar power system is matched to the refrigerator's consumption, climate and ambient temperatures against a solar radiation reference of 3.5 kWh/m² per 24 hours.
Which manuals are supplied?
The SDD Ref. MetaFridge comes with user, installation and technician's manuals supplied in English, covering day-to-day operation, correct installation of the refrigerator and solar system, and technical servicing.
