Platinum Chest Style Low Temperature Freezers 0°C To -40°C, 5 cu.ft., Manual Defrost Overview
The Platinum Chest Style Low Temperature Freezer 0°C To -40°C, 5 cu.ft., Manual Defrost (model LTF201CP) is a laboratory chest freezer from Yamato Scientific. Maintaining set points from 0°C down to -40°C across 142 L of usable space, this unit stores reagents, biologicals, and reference materials. LabSupplies.com supplies it as an authorized dealer.
A touch-screen controller displays both set point and chamber temperature, while data logging downloads via USB or FTP. High and low alarms send email and SMS notifications, and battery back-up protects monitoring during outages. Operators gain VNC remote access from a PC or mobile device, plus multi-level security and a 1/2" side access port with plugs.
Construction pairs a 14-gauge zinc-coated galvanized steel chamber with a 16-gauge powder-coated cool-gray steel exterior. Power options span 115V, 208V, 230V at 60 Hz and 220V at 50/60 Hz, single-phase. Measuring 40.5" × 31" × 47" and weighing 525 lbs, the UL Listed cabinet is manufactured in the USA.

How to Choose the Right Low-Temp Freezer
Selecting a chest-style low-temperature freezer comes down to matching storage volume, temperature class, and site infrastructure to your sample workload. Review these axes before specifying a unit.
- Capacity: rack count and interior volume determine how many samples you can store; this 5 cu.ft. (142 L) cabinet holds up to 15 racks.
- Temperature range: confirm the freezer reaches your coldest required set point. A 0°C to -40°C range suits many reagent, biological, and reference-material protocols.
- Control and monitoring: touch-screen control with data logging, remote alarms, and battery back-up matters where audit trails and sample integrity are critical.
- Voltage: verify your circuit before ordering; this model supports 115V, 208V, and 230V at 60 Hz, plus 220V at 50/60 Hz, single-phase.
- Footprint: measure floor space and access paths against the 40.5" × 31" × 47" exterior and 525 lb weight.
- Safety and certification: CFC-/HCFC-free refrigeration and UL Listed construction support compliance and facility standards.
