The Combined Refrigerator and Freezer 2-8°C and -40°C by Antech Scientific offers reliable storage for biological samples. With a 2°C to 8°C refrigerator compartment above and a -40°C freezer below, each compartment operates independently for precise temperature control. This unit features a glass observation window, adjustable shelves, and a self-closing door. To learn more about high-performance solutions visit our Insights page for additional information.

The 2-8°C and -40°C combined refrigerator and freezer by Antech Scientific delivers precise temperature control for biomedical applications in South Africa. Specifically, the top compartment maintains 2°C to 8°C while the bottom freezer reaches -40°C, both regulated by independent refrigerant systems. Furthermore, dual compressors ensure reliable operation, keeping biological samples safely stored under optimal conditions.

 

Performance

This combined laboratory refrigerator and freezer excels in performance. In addition, it offers:

  • Independent Cooling Systems: Each compartment functions separately, so if one fails, the other continues operating, safeguarding your samples.
  • High-Precision Temperature Control: The microprocessor system provides readings accurate to 0.1°C, ensuring reliability.
  • Digital Display: Users can easily monitor conditions and receive alarm codes for any anomalies.
  • Three-Channel Sensors: These sensors manage control, display, and ambient temperature, enhancing overall reliability.

 

Safety Features

Safety is crucial in laboratory environments. Moreover, this unit includes:

  • Comprehensive Alarm System: Alerts for high/low temperatures, open doors, power failures, sensor errors, and low battery.
  • Built-in Data Storage: A USB port allows for convenient temperature data downloads.
  • Security Measures: The safety door lock prevents unauthorized access, and an access port accommodates additional temperature probes.

 

Ergonomic Design

Designed with convenience in mind, the unit features:

  • Glass Observation Window: Enables monitoring of the refrigerator compartment without opening the door.
  • Adjustable Shelving and Drawers: Customizable storage improves usability and organization.
  • Self-Closing Door Mechanism: Maintains internal temperatures while facilitating easy operation.
  • Ultra-Quiet Operation: Minimizes noise, making it ideal for any laboratory setting.

 

Environmentally Friendly

The refrigerator and freezer uses natural refrigerants compliant with EPA and SNAP regulations. As a result, it reduces ozone depletion and carbon emissions. Additionally, CFC-free polyurethane insulation enhances energy efficiency and eco-friendliness.
