Description
ABS ABT-HC-AFS-1420 Laboratory Freezer Standard Auto Defrost
ABS ABT-HC-AFS-1420 Laboratory Freezer Standard Auto Defrost are ideal for industrial, clinical, or research laboratory requirements. Designed to provide dependable, energy-efficient performance, all units are manufactured with CFC-free high-density urethane foam cabinet and door insulation to maintain temperature stability.
Auto-Defrost design provides the convenience of a frost-free interior. However, chamber air temperatures do experience a moderate rise during defrost cycles.
Environmentally friendly, natural hydrocarbon (HC) refrigerants (not containing hydrofluorocarbons) vastly reduce global-warming potential (GWP) while meeting new EPA/SNAP mandates and UL, ASHRAE compliance guidelines.
DISCLAIMER: Auto defrost freezers incorporate an electric heater installed on the evaporator that assist in the removal of the frost and ice. Although the heater helps speed up the frost and ice removal, it can raise the temperatures within the freezer.

Product FAQ
What are the advantages of the auto-defrost system?
The auto-defrost feature simplifies maintenance by preventing frost buildup, allowing for a consistent, maintenance-free environment ideal for many general laboratory storage applications.
What is the intended use for this laboratory freezer?
This unit is designed to provide reliable, consistent storage for non-sensitive laboratory samples and general lab materials that do not require the specialized temperature stability of manual-defrost models.
What kind of warranty is included?
It comes with a standard two-year parts and labor warranty, plus an additional five-year compressor parts warranty to ensure long-term, reliable operation.
Shipping FAQ
How is this lab freezer shipped?
Given its delicate cooling system and electronic components, this unit is shipped via dedicated LTL (Less-Than-Truckload) freight, secured on a pallet to ensure it arrives in optimal condition.
Do I need liftgate service?
If your facility does not have a loading dock capable of receiving an 18-wheeler truck, yes, liftgate service is required to safely lower the unit to the ground level.
What should I inspect upon arrival?
Before signing the delivery receipt, you must thoroughly inspect the exterior packaging and the unit itself for any signs of shipping damage, as the cooling system requires careful handling.
What are the post-delivery setup steps?
To prevent damage to the compressor and ensure long-term stability, you must allow the unit to sit upright in its final location for at least 24 hours to let all fluids settle before powering it on.
