Disclaimers– Defrosting of the unit will need to be performed periodically to prevent severe ice build-up. Indoor use only, +18° C to +26° C (+65° F to +78° F), <70% RH Specifications are subject to change. Equipment requires 4” of clearance around back and sides of the unit for proper ventilation – improper installation will void the warranty and will lead to temperature maintenance issues, overheating and possible failure. Performance claims are based on testing at 22°C ambient using unbuffered air temperatures in an empty freezer at steady state operation. Performance may vary with environmental conditions, product load, or door openings.

Product FAQ
What makes this freezer safe for storing flammable materials?
This unit is specifically engineered to meet NFPA and OSHA guidelines 45 and 70 for the refrigerated storage of volatile and flammable materials in general laboratory work areas. It features no internal electrical components and has compressor electrical components sealed in a vapor-proof enclosure.
What advanced monitoring features does the TempLog Touchscreen provide?
The integrated touchscreen display features an intuitive user interface, real-time operational clock, active temperature scale bar display, resettable min/max history, digital 24-hour temperature charting, and built-in data logging capabilities for rigorous compliance and auditing.
What temperature range and monitoring tools are included?
The freezer operates within a -15°C to -25°C range powered by microprocessor and variable frequency compressor technology. It includes a product simulator bottle with glass bead media and a comprehensive alarm suite with a battery backup for continuous display and alerts.
Are there specific installation requirements?
Yes. Due to the high-capacity commercial scale of this 30 cu. ft. upright freezer, it requires a minimum of 4 inches of clearance around the back and sides to ensure proper ventilation and prevent performance issues or overheating.
What is the warranty coverage?
It is backed by a standard parts and labor warranty, alongside extended compressor parts coverage for long-term clinical and laboratory reliability.
Shipping FAQ
How is this large commercial flammable freezer shipped?
Due to the heavy commercial weight (approx. 330 lbs shipping weight) and sensitive electronics, this full-size upright unit is shipped via specialized LTL (Less-Than-Truckload) freight, securely palletized to safeguard the system against transit damage.
Do I need liftgate service?
Yes, liftgate service is mandatory unless your facility features a professional commercial loading dock capable of receiving an 18-wheeler, ensuring the large unit is safely lowered to ground level.
What should I inspect upon arrival?
Before signing the delivery receipt, you must thoroughly inspect the outer packaging, solid door, handle, and exterior panels for any indication of transit-related impacts.
What are the post-delivery setup steps?
Allow the freezer to sit completely upright in its final installation location for at least 24 hours prior to powering it on, letting all internal compressor fluids properly settle.
