The 15 Bay Vault-Style Morgue Cooler (Model 1070-15MB) is the largest individual-access mortuary vault in the AMC line — 15 chambers with stainless steel slide-out tray system. Built for regional medical examiner offices, large hospital morgues, university medical campuses, federal disaster-response staging, and state DMORT facilities where per-case isolation at high capacity is the requirement.

  • Vault-style cabinet — cold-loss control per retrieval
  • 304 stainless interior, modular insulated panels
  • Remote-split refrigeration standard at this scale
  • Standard delivery OR Turnkey installation service — specify at order
  • NSF, UL, ASTM E84 certified
  • 10-year structural warranty
  • Made in Johnson City, Tennessee

Where it fits in the vault cooler line

The 15 Bay Vault is the top of the 1070 series — the largest individual-access vault AMC builds off the shelf. For higher capacity, see the custom-built line. Step down to the 12 Bay Vault, 9 Bay Vault, or 8-Door Vault.

For walk-in workflow at comparable aggregate capacity, see the 20×20 Walk-In Refrigerator. The vault-vs-walk-in choice at this capacity is workflow-driven, not cost-driven — vault wins on per-case isolation and chain-of-custody handling.

Standard delivery vs. turnkey installation

This unit ships in one of two delivery configurations:

  • Standard Freight Delivery — cabinet ships flat-pack on multi-pallet freight, customer responsible for installation and refrigeration commissioning
  • Turnkey Installation Service — AMC ships the cabinet to site, installs panels, commissions refrigeration, verifies operation. Adds $4,500 to the standard freight price

Turnkey is the default for institutional, federal, and DMORT-contracted procurements where the buyer cannot accept open-ended site installation risk.
