Chest Style Low Temperature Freezers 0°C To -40°C, 2 cu.ft., Manual Defrost Overview
The Chest Style Low Temperature Freezers 0°C to -40°C, 2 cu.ft., Manual Defrost (model LTF001C) from Yamato Scientific holds laboratory samples across a full 0°C to -40°C range inside a compact 2 cu.ft. chamber. LabSupplies.com, authorized dealer, supplies each unit with a microprocessor digital controller, audible and visual alarms, remote alarm contacts, a battery-backed alarm, and a standard 1/2-inch access port. Procurement teams get cold storage plus monitoring in one footprint.
The chamber is built from 14-gauge zinc-coated galvanized steel, while the exterior uses 16-gauge steel with a powder-coated cool gray finish. A single-stage refrigeration system drives one hermetic compressor and an air-cooled condenser, so no liquid coolant is required. CFC- and HCFC-free refrigerant keeps the design environmentally compliant. Two digital displays show set temperature and actual chamber temperature side by side.
Electrical configurations include 115V, 208V, and 230V at 60 Hz, plus a 220V 50/60 Hz option, all single-phase. Exterior dimensions measure 25.25 × 25.75 × 40 inches, and the freezer weighs 335 lbs. Made in USA and UL Listed, each unit ships after a 7-day full-load test. Yamato guarantees a constant low setpoint even in warm +30°C ambient environments.
