Lab Cold Storage

Q: What temperature ranges do lab freezers and ULT freezers cover?

Standard lab freezers typically maintain temperatures around -20°C, while ultra-low temperature (ULT) freezers operate between -40°C and -86°C—ideal for long-term storage of biological samples, enzymes, and vaccines.

Q: Do I need a vaccine-specific refrigerator?

Yes. Vaccine refrigerators are designed to meet CDC and WHO guidelines, with temperature stability, uniformity, and alarms that help prevent spoilage. They’re essential in hospitals, clinics, pharmacies, and public health settings.

Q: What types of alarms and monitoring features are included?

Most lab cold storage units include temperature alarms, door-open alerts, and battery backup systems. Many also support external data logging or monitoring systems for GMP, GLP, or CDC compliance.

Q: Can these refrigerators and freezers be used in pharmaceutical environments?

Absolutely. Our lab cold storage units are built to meet pharmaceutical-grade requirements and are suitable for storing temperature-sensitive drugs, reagents, and biologics in research and production environments.

Q: How often should lab cold storage units be calibrated or maintained?

It’s recommended to calibrate temperature controls at least once a year and inspect door seals, sensors, and alarms regularly. Preventive maintenance ensures long-term reliability and compliance.

Q: What size cold storage unit should I choose for my lab?

It depends on your sample volume and storage needs. Small labs may need under-counter or benchtop units, while clinical or research labs often require upright or chest models with more capacity. Consider backup space and accessibility when choosing.
