Operon have introduced the CFQ-156E Cryo Freezer that gives a real alternative to long-term storage in liquid nitrogen.
The Cryo Freezer removes the need for a liquid nitrogen supply.
It requires only mains power and offers a top to bottom temperature uniformity of 5C, ensuring better sample storage conditions.
The Cryo Freezer is the same physical size as any other chest type freezer on the market and will fit into any lab or storage facility.
It comes with a battery back-up system, built-in safety alarm system with audible and visual warning, plus remote alarm contacts for ease of connection to an existing building management system.
The Operon range is available in the UK from White Horse Scientific.
