Isothermal V-Series Carousel LN2 freezers with rotating carousel

The Isothermal V-Series Carousel LN2 freezer is a cryogenic freezer with a clever design. Here it uses a rotating carousel and a rectangular lid opening. Moreover, the liquid nitrogen sits in a jacket around the chamber. As a result, samples stay completely dry and never touch the liquid. In addition, this carousel design suits rooms with limited ceiling height. Furthermore, this Custom Biogenic Systems range comes in four capacities, from 70 to 140 litres.

Carousel design for limited ceiling height

With a standard cryogenic freezer, the lid must open fully upward. As a result, you need free space above the unit. However, the carousel model uses a rectangular lid opening and a rotating carousel inside. Therefore you simply turn the right rack to the opening. So you never have to move other racks aside.

Moreover, sample exposure to ambient temperature stays as short as possible. In addition, the quick access limits liquid nitrogen consumption. As a result, the operating costs drop.

Dry storage with patented jacket technology

In traditional cryogenic freezers, a layer of liquid nitrogen sits at the bottom of the chamber. Samples stored in that liquid can shrink. As a result, nitrogen may leak into the vials. On warming, that nitrogen then expands. Therefore the vial can rupture. That is why the Carousel range places the liquid nitrogen in a jacket instead.

As a result, the storage area itself stays completely dry. Meanwhile, the jacket provides an even temperature throughout the chamber. In addition, the liquid-free storage area cuts the risk of cross-contamination between infected samples.

Proven temperature uniformity

The Isothermal technology holds an average internal temperature of 190 degrees Celsius below zero. As a result, all samples stay well below the glass transition point of water of 132 degrees below zero. At that point, all metabolic activity stops. Moreover, the temperature stays uniform throughout the chamber, from top to bottom.

2301 Smart-Touch controller and monitoring

In addition, the Carousel range uses the 2301 Smart-Touch controller with touchscreen. Therefore the user gets a dual temperature display, automatic filling and adjustable alarms. Moreover, the controller offers a fill timer, exportable reports and Modbus-TCP. So it integrates easily into a central monitoring system. Furthermore, the range connects to wireless monitoring solutions. As a result, performance can be tracked remotely 24 hours a day.

Key benefits of the Isothermal V-Series Carousel LN2 freezer

• Rotating carousel with rectangular lid opening, ideal for limited ceiling height.
• Dry storage technology: the liquid nitrogen sits in a jacket around the chamber, so samples never contact LN2.
• Average internal temperature of 190 degrees Celsius below zero, well below the glass transition point of water of 132 degrees below zero.
• Quick access to every rack without moving other racks, which limits LN2 consumption.
• Lower risk of cross-contamination because the storage area is free of liquid nitrogen.
• 2301 Smart-Touch controller with touchscreen, autofill, alarms, fill timer and Modbus-TCP.
• Vessel made of 304 stainless steel, CE marked and tested to IEC 61010-1.

Applications in laboratory and biobank

Finally, the Carousel range suits long-term cryogenic storage in rooms with limited height. So you will find it in laboratories, biobanks and research institutions. For instance, the range serves the pharmaceutical industry and biotech and medical diagnostics. In addition, you can view the full range of cryogenic storage.
