TDE60086FV Ultra-Low Temperature Freezer
The Thermo Scientific TDE60086FV Ultra-Low Temperature Freezer is a high-performance laboratory freezer designed to provide reliable and energy-efficient storage for sensitive biological materials at ultra-low temperatures. Engineered by Thermo Fisher Scientific, this upright ULT freezer offers advanced cooling technology, superior temperature stability, and large storage capacity to meet the demanding requirements of modern research laboratories, biobanks, pharmaceutical facilities, and clinical institutions.
Designed for the secure preservation of valuable samples, the TDE60086FV maintains stable temperatures ranging from -50°C to -86°C, ensuring optimal conditions for long-term storage of biological materials such as DNA, RNA, vaccines, cell cultures, plasma, enzymes, and pharmaceutical compounds. The freezer incorporates H-Drive hydrocarbon refrigeration technology, which uses natural refrigerants to deliver high cooling efficiency while significantly reducing energy consumption and environmental impact compared with traditional refrigeration systems.
With a large 816-liter storage capacity, the freezer can accommodate up to 60,000 standard 2 mL vials or 600 storage boxes, making it suitable for laboratories that require high-volume sample storage. The internal chamber is designed with multiple adjustable shelves and four insulated inner doors, helping minimize cold air loss when accessing samples and maintaining consistent temperature uniformity throughout the cabinet.
The freezer features a robust and durable construction with high-performance insulation, including vacuum insulation panels and polyurethane foam, which help maintain stable internal conditions even during frequent door openings. Its advanced cascade refrigeration system ensures rapid temperature recovery and dependable cooling performance, protecting valuable samples from temperature fluctuations.
For convenient operation and monitoring, the system includes a 5.6-inch H-Drive Information Center display with capacitive touch controls, allowing users to easily monitor temperature conditions, adjust parameters, and manage alarm settings. Integrated monitoring capabilities support connectivity with external laboratory monitoring systems through RS485 communication, 4–20 mA outputs, and dry contact alarms, enabling remote supervision and enhanced laboratory safety.
The Thermo Scientific TDE60086FV Ultra-Low Temperature Freezer is also designed with laboratory comfort and sustainability in mind. Its efficient compressor system operates with reduced noise levels, making it suitable for placement directly in laboratory environments. The use of environmentally friendly hydrocarbon refrigerants further supports sustainable laboratory operations while maintaining exceptional cooling performance.
Combining large storage capacity, advanced refrigeration technology, and reliable sample protection, the TDE60086FV Ultra-Low Temperature Freezer provides laboratories with a dependable solution for secure ultra-low temperature storage. Its durable design, energy efficiency, and advanced monitoring capabilities make it an ideal choice for facilities that require consistent, long-term preservation of critical research and clinical samples.
