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 is the temperature range of the ABT-HC-MFP-3030?
The unit maintains a stable operating temperature range of -15°C to -25°C, suitable for general laboratory cold storage applications.
What does manual defrost mean for maintenance?
Manual defrost units provide superior temperature stability by avoiding the cyclical temperature fluctuations caused by automatic defrost cycles. Users must periodically monitor ice buildup and perform manual defrosting to maintain optimal performance.
What are the key storage features?
The freezer includes adjustable shelving and a solid door with a heavy-duty handle and integrated lock to ensure the security and integrity of stored samples.
What kind of warranty is included?
It comes with a standard two-year parts and labor warranty, plus a five-year compressor parts warranty.
Shipping FAQ
How is this unit shipped?
This commercial-grade laboratory freezer is shipped via dedicated LTL freight to ensure it arrives in optimal condition.
Do I need liftgate service?
Yes, unless your facility is equipped with a loading dock, liftgate service is required to safely lower the unit to ground level.
Any setup tips?
We recommend allowing the unit to stand upright for at least 24 hours after delivery to allow the compressor oil to settle before powering it on.
