Key features and benefits

• Accurate and reproducible control of cooling rates and sample temperatures
• A focus on maximising cell survival rates
• Controlled and customisable freezing and thawing
• Linear and non-linear freezing profiles
• Liquid nitrogen, alcohol and cryogen free – no need for ‘topping up’
• Interchangeable heads for flexibility (ordered separately)
• Free of charge software allows you to design, track, export and report temperature profiles
• Easy to use and samples can be nucleated/seeded in-situ
• Low running costs: estimated at 1% of liquid nitrogen-controlled rate freezing and runs on a 24V supply
• Temperature range of -100°C to 30°C*
