Platinum Chest Style Low Temperature Freezers 0°C To -40°C, 14 cu.ft., Manual Defrost Overview
The Platinum Chest Style Low Temperature Freezers 0°C To -40°C, 14 cu.ft., Manual Defrost (model LTF501CP) is a Yamato Scientific chest-style laboratory freezer holding 400 L of sample storage across a 0°C to −40°C range. LabSupplies.com supplies this unit as an authorized Yamato Scientific dealer. A touch-screen controller manages set point and chamber temperature.
Construction pairs a 14-gauge zinc-coated galvanized steel chamber with a 16-gauge steel exterior finished in powder-coated cool gray. Single-stage refrigeration runs one hermetic compressor on a CFC- and HCFC-free refrigerant. An air-cooled condenser needs no liquid coolant. Interior space accepts up to 30 racks across the 62-inch chamber length.
Power options cover 115V, 208V, and 230V at 60 Hz single-phase, plus 220V at 50/60 Hz. Exterior dimensions measure 72.5 × 33 × 47.5 inches, while shipping weight reaches 900 lbs. Made in the USA, each freezer is UL Listed and runs through a 7-day performance test before delivery.
Key Features
- Touch-screen control: displays set point and chamber temperature, with a viewable temperature graph and multi-level security.
- Alarm system: battery-operated audible and visual alerts on mechanical or electrical failure, plus over- and under-temperature settings, silencing switch, and battery test switch.
- Remote monitoring: alarm-relay and power-failure dry contacts allow remote alarm hook-up, with Hi/Low email and SMS notification.
- Connectivity: USB and Ethernet ports support data logging downloadable via USB or FTP, and VNC remote access from a PC or smart device.
- Access port: 1/2-inch porthole on the left-hand side of the cabinet, supplied with plugs for sensor or probe pass-through.
- Factory tested: every freezer is fully tested for 7 days under demanding conditions, holding a constant low set point in +30°C ambient environments.
How to Choose the Right Low-Temp Freezer
Selecting a chest-style low-temperature freezer comes down to matching storage volume, target temperature, and site power to your sample protocol. Weigh these axes before specifying a unit.
- Capacity: 14 cu.ft. (400 L) and 30-rack support determine how many samples a single freezer can hold without crowding airflow.
- Temperature range: a 0°C to −40°C span suits applications that do not require ultra-low −80°C storage, balancing performance with energy use.
- Control type: a touch-screen controller with data logging and remote alerts matters for regulated workflows that need an audit trail.
- Voltage: confirm 115V, 208V, 230V, or 220V availability against your laboratory circuit before installation.
- Footprint: verify the 72.5 × 33 × 47.5-inch exterior and 900 lb weight fit your floor plan and access route.
- Safety: battery-backed alarms and remote contacts protect samples during power or mechanical faults.
