Ultra-Low Temperature (ULT) Freezers (-50C to -86C) are widely used in scientific research for long-term storage of samples. As ULT freezers are often operated at -80C continuously for years, reliability is of paramount importance to the researchers.
Advanced Temperature ControlThe ESCO Lexicon II Freezer offers ultra-low temperature settings between -50C to -86C, configurable through its intuitive 7-inch touchscreen interface. The microprocessor control and cascade refrigeration system ensure stable and accurate conditions, critical for sensitive biomedical and laboratory materials. Its built-in data logging with USB export provides assurance for compliance and traceability.
Enhanced Security and ConvenienceDesigned with a password-protected control system, the freezer limits unauthorized access and maintains sample integrity. Audible and visual alarms, as well as backup battery support for monitoring systems, enhance user confidence in critical environments. Lockable castors and ergonomic design make repositioning and installation practical and straightforward.
Robust, Eco-friendly ConstructionConstructed with powder-coated steel externally and stainless steel internally, the ESCO Lexicon II combines durability with easy maintenance. Its high-density polyurethane foam insulation optimizes cooling efficiency, while the use of CFC- and HCFC-free refrigerants underscores its environmentally conscious design-a fundamental advantage for today's laboratories.
