Thermo Scientific TDE Series ULT Chest Freezer -86°C

TDE Series ULT chest freezer -86°C

Reliable storage to -86°C in a compact chest configuration

The Thermo Scientific TDE Series ULT chest freezer stores samples stably between -50°C and -86°C. Therefore, this unit suits long-term storage and frequent access in the laboratory. Furthermore, the chest design limits cold loss when opened, because cold air stays in the lower part of the cabinet. Additionally, the horizontal layout requires little floor space. As a result, placement is possible in spaces where an upright freezer does not fit. Moreover, the series offers three capacities, so each model fits the available space.

H-Drive technology for stable performance

The TDE Series operates with the H-Drive system from Thermo Scientific. Therefore, the temperature stays evenly distributed across the entire cabinet. Furthermore, the system adjusts the cooling capacity dynamically to the load. Additionally, the temperature recovers quickly after the lid is opened. As a result, the smallest model (TDEC06386) returns to setpoint within one minute. Moreover, the peak variation around the -80°C setpoint stays limited. Consequently, samples remain well protected during daily use. The key performance features are:

• Fast temperature recovery after lid opening, from one minute
• Low peak variation around the -80°C setpoint
• Stable temperature distribution across the entire cabinet
• Suitable for frequent access and long-term storage

Efficient, quiet and sustainable design

Energy consumption starts at 6.6 kWh per day, depending on model and temperature. Therefore, these freezers help lower energy costs. Furthermore, the low heat emission reduces the load on the HVAC system. Additionally, the series uses natural hydrocarbon refrigerants that comply with the EU F-gas regulation. Moreover, the polyurethane foam contains a non-HFC blowing agent. As a result, the environmental impact stays low. Furthermore, placement directly in the laboratory is possible, because the sound level starts at 50.9 dBA. The sustainability benefits at a glance:

• Energy consumption from 6.6 kWh per day
• Low heat emission lowers HVAC costs
• Natural refrigerants compliant with the EU F-gas regulation
• Polyurethane foam with non-HFC blowing agent
• Sound level from 50.9 dBA, comparable to a home refrigerator

User-friendly and secure in operation

Each model features the H-Drive Information Center (HIC) with touchscreen control. Therefore, the temperature is easy to read. Furthermore, a 3-digit code protects the settings against unwanted changes. Additionally, the doors are padlock-compatible. Moreover, general-purpose models for laboratory use and medical models (Class II Medical Device) for storage of blood and blood products are available. As a result, the series suits a wide range of applications. Furthermore, these freezers fit well within the pharmaceutical industry and biotech and medical diagnostics.
