FARRAR™ Forced Air, Ultra-Low Temperature Chamber Bulk Storage Freezer | 259 cu. ft.
Item#: ULC-259Purpose-built for life science applications, the Ultra-Low Chamber ULC-190, new ULC-259, and ULC-311 are the only +2°C to +8°C and -20°C to -80°C, forced air, ultra-low-temperature freezers on the market.
Ideal for bulk commercial short and long-term needs, these innovative chambers offer rapid, efficient, and more sustainable product cool-down and accommodate universal product containers (all sizes—bags, bottles, boxes, etc. of pharmaceutical packaging).
With 190 cu. ft. / 5,380 liters up to 311 cu. ft. / 8,806 liters of storage, these solutions help optimize footprint requiring only 47 sq. ft. / 4.36 m2 of space. At +/-3.0°C, the units feature unmatched uniformity, offer fully redundant systems (control, refrigeration, airflow), and provide the fastest temperature recovery from door opening versus competitor offerings.
Designed with energy balance in mind, the ULC is a smart storage solution series for life science applications that offer dynamic refrigeration control and low energy consumption (ULC-190 = 0.3 kWh/cu. ft.).
