LN2 Cryogenic Storage

High-Performance Cryogenic Freezers & Sample Storage Equipment

What is a Mechanical Cryogenic Freezer?

A mechanical cryogenic freezer is a specialized ultra-low temperature storage unit, ideal for preserving sensitive biological samples such as cells, tissues, and enzymes over extended periods. Unlike traditional cryogenic systems that rely on liquid nitrogen, mechanical cryogenic freezers use advanced compressor technology to reach ultra-low temperatures without requiring LN2. At Laboratory Equipment Company, we provide these freezers as a safer, more manageable solution for labs that demand dependable, long-term sample preservation.

How Does a Mechanical Cryogenic Freezer Work?

Mechanical cryogenic freezers use a dual compressor, auto-cascade compressor system to achieve extremely low temperatures, to reach storage temperature of -150°C or lower. A well-designed system will incorporate a Liquid Nitrogen (LN2) Back-up system to offer further protection in the event of an electrical outage. A -150 degrees celsius mechanical freezer ensures uniform, consistent, and stable cooling critical for long term storage of delicate samples. Laboratory Equipment Company offers models equipped with precise temperature controls and alarms to ensure secure sample storage in ultra-low temperature environments

What are the Advantages of a Cryogenic Freezer?

Mechanical cryogenic freezers offer significant benefits, including uniform consistent ultra-low temperatures without the need for dangerous liquid nitrogen (LN2)  handling, improved user safety, and simplified storage management - no LN2 dripping on the floor.  Available in a chest style,  these freezers also come with advanced monitoring features. Laboratory Equipment Company’s cryogenic freezers meet rigorous standards, making them ideal for laboratories that prioritize sample integrity and operational ease

Is Cryogenic Freezing Safe to Use?

Yes, mechanical cryogenic freezers are designed with user safety in mind. By eliminating the need for liquid nitrogen, they reduce the risks for users and facilities  associated with cryogenic liquid handling. Laboratory Equipment Company’s models include safety features such as temperature alarms, LN2 backup systems,  and secure seals to further enhance safety and ensure reliable sample preservation

What is the Temperature of a Cryogenic Freezer?

Mechanical cryogenic freezers typically operate around -150°C, which is below the glass transition temperature which is essential for providing the ultra-low temperatures to preserve biological materials in a stable environment. For the very long term.. Laboratory Equipment Company offers a selection of high-performance freezers that deliver reliable, precise cooling offering superior performance and quality of cold to support your critical research and sample storage needs.
