A single-stage refrigeration system with one hermetic compressor maintains the setpoint, and the unit holds its low temperature even in warm ambient conditions up to +30°C.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is the storage capacity and how large is the unit?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe freezer provides 22 cu.ft. (626 L) of interior capacity with four adjustable shelves forming five compartments and room for up to 25 racks. Interior dimensions are 28.5\" × 26\" × 51.25\", and exterior dimensions are 43\" × 37\" × 79.5\".\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat power supply does the LTF601U require?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe LTF601U supports 115V, 208V, and 230V at 60 Hz, plus 220V at 50\/60 Hz, all single-phase. Confirm the configuration that matches your available lab circuit when ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat materials is the freezer built from?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe chamber is 14-gauge zinc-coated galvanized steel, and the exterior is 16-gauge steel finished in powder-coated cool gray.
