• 15-minute temperature logging at plus or minus 1 C from built-in NIST-traceable sensors, with 3 days of records kept on the device even after the battery runs down¹²
• Remaining storage time on screen and in the app, so a crew knows how long the insert has left before it accepts a unit¹
• Bluetooth and cellular alerts for temperature excursions through BloodCOMM¹
• 2 L payload, two 500 mL bags in an aluminum temperature control insert that needs no glycol¹⁴
• Rugged EMS build: IP55, stain-resistant wipeable exterior, insulation protected from drops and punctures¹²
• Up to 24 hours on the internal battery, plus up to 4 more days with the external battery bundle²⁵

Applications:

Clinical and Operational Use:

AABB prehospital standards set whole blood and red cell storage at 1 to 6 C and transport at 1 to 10 C, require containers validated for the expected duration, and require storage temperature to be monitored continuously and recorded at least every 4 hours.⁷ The ICE 2L is validated tighter, at 2 to 6 C, and records every 15 minutes. Delta's Blood Bank Compliance documentation maps the cooler against the AABB standards a transfusion service reviews before it releases product to an EMS agency.⁸

The conditioned Delta ICE 2L Temperature Control Insert does the cooling. The electronics do the proving: they log, display remaining time, alert on excursions and hand the blood bank a record it can audit. The cooler does not replace the agency's blood bank agreement, its own validation study or its excursion policy.

Compatibility:

• Monitoring plan. BloodCOMM Basic is free Bluetooth monitoring in the app. BloodCOMM Pro adds remote cellular monitoring, push, SMS and email alerts, and a year of history. BloodCOMM Premium adds per-unit blood tracking, GPS and free blood bank access.⁹¹⁰¹¹
• Insert. Delta recommends buying an additional Delta ICE 2L Temperature Control Insert (A-001377) with each cooler so a conditioned spare is always ready.⁴
• Conditioning. Delta TempWatch (A-001693) monitors the insert in the freezer and alarms at 2 C when it is ready to pack.¹²
• External power. The Delta ICE 2L External Battery Bundle, Enhanced Case adds up to 4 days. Battery bundles are case specific: the enhanced case uses a Velcro loop, the original case uses MOLLE.⁵
• Coverage. The Delta ICE 2L 5-Year Extended Warranty is applied to your cooler's serial number and adds Delta priority support.¹³
• Gateways. BloodCOMM Connect syncs the APRU 6L today. Delta lists ICE 2L support as coming soon, so do not plan an ICE 2L deployment around it yet.
• Larger inventory. Agencies holding more than two units at a base should look at the Delta APRU 6L Autonomous Portable Blood Refrigerator.
