PHCbi - MDF-DU901VHA-PA - VIP ECO Large Volume Ultra-Low Freezer

Features
Purpose-Built Cold Chain Storage
PHCbi brand ultra-low temperature (ULT) VIP® ECO freezers are engineered from the inside out to create, maintain, and restore precise temperatures. Our purpose-built ultra-low temperature freezers achieve and maintain temperature uniformity and stability not commonly found with household or commercial cabinets.
The MDF-DU901VHA-PA VIP ECO large volume ULT provides reliable temperatures as low as -80°C. The MDF-DU901VHA-PA is part of the VIP ECO Series of ultra-low temperature freezers. PHCbi brand VIP ECO Series ULTs have earned a worldwide reputation for dependable performance in demanding environments where critical materials must be preserved for generations.
High Capacity Storage, Superior Performance, 115V Operation
This large volume high capacity ultra-low temperature upright freezer is ideal for use in biorepositories, research freezer farms and facilities where bulk storage of sensitive biological material is managed. The cabinet orientation holds up to 672, 2" boxes or 448, 3" boxes within 10.79 sq.ft. (~1 sq.m). Powered by a 115V electrical service, performance, reliability and energy efficiency combine to secure valuable biological samples, making it a superior choice for new or replacement installations.
ENERGY STAR® Certified
The VIP ECO Model MDF-DU901VHA-PA has earned ENERGY STAR Certification based on independent testing by third party laboratories.

Minimum Footprint for Efficient Use of Lab Floor Space
The upright cabinet design includes a patented VIP Plus thin-profile insulation composite which ensures exceptional insulation value while maximizing interior space efficiency and storage capacity. This highly efficient insulation also improves temperature stability following frequent door openings and extends warm-up times during power outages. The efficient volume-to-footprint ratio maximizes use of available floor space while still able to pass through a standard 36" wide doorway.
Reliable Temperature Control Using Natural Refrigerants, Intelligent Compressors
Natural refrigerants minimize environmental impact without compromising ultra-low temperature performance. The robust refrigeration system is powered by a new generation of high performance inverter compressors, designed to maintain the most efficient energy consumption. Energy efficient reserve refrigeration power assures fast temperature recovery following door openings and tolerance for high ambient conditions such as warm labs or hallways. Operating costs are minimized while stored product protection is secured.
EZlatch Ergonomic Design for Quick Access and Positive Door Closure
The patent pending EZlatch door handle is integral to the inventory access system. This feature is engineered to tolerate frequent door openings and control frost associated with extreme temperature differentials, protecting stored samples. Positive latching inner doors supplement the insulation factor of the outer door, maintaining the integrity of the door seal to assure energy efficiency. The ergonomic design permits secure one-handed opening and closing with a minimum of effort. An automatic vacuum relief port permits quick re-entry.
Microprocessor Controller
An integral microprocessor controller combines freezer operation including setpoint security, system monitoring, predictive performance and data logging functions into a single eye-level door display. The large color LCD touchscreen can be controlled with a gloved hand. This password protected, fully functional display includes audio and visual warnings, unit diagnostics, temperature and door opening data. A USB port permits the convenient transfer of operating history as desired.
