Upright Style Ultra Low Freezers -40°C To -80°C, 28 cu.ft., Manual Defrost Overview
The Upright Style Ultra Low Freezers -40°C To -80°C, 28 cu.ft., Manual Defrost (model ULF801U) from Yamato Scientific is an upright laboratory freezer delivering a chamber range of -40°C to -80°C across 28 cu.ft. (792 L) of storage. Built for long-term sample preservation, it holds up to 30 racks and ships from LabSupplies.com as an authorized Yamato Scientific dealer.
Cascade-type refrigeration runs two hermetic compressors on CFC- and HCFC-free R-508B and R-404A refrigerants. An air-cooled condenser with two heavy-duty fans removes heat without liquid coolant. The 792 L chamber is 14-gauge zinc-coated galvanized steel; the 16-gauge steel exterior carries a power-coated cool-gray finish. Four adjustable shelves divide the interior into five compartments.
Power options cover 115V, 208V, 230V at 60 Hz, plus 220V at 50/60 Hz, all single-phase. Exterior dimensions measure 54" × 37" × 79.5" and the unit weighs 1,125 lbs, so verify floor space and power before delivery. Manufactured in the USA and UL Listed, ULF801U arrives with a digital controller, alarm package, and battery backup as standard equipment.
Key Features
- Microprocessor digital controller: dual display shows set point and chamber temperature, with a scan button for setting and a tamper-proof lockout.
- Battery-operated alarm system: audible and visual signals trigger on mechanical or electrical failure, with over- and under-temperature settings, alarm silencing, and a battery test switch.
- Remote alarm capability: a relay is provided for remote alarm hook-up, plus a 1/2" access port for monitoring probes.
- Automatic power-failure recovery: a timer system restarts the unit after a power interruption.
- Cascade refrigeration: two hermetic compressors and CFC- and HCFC-free R-508B and R-404A refrigerants reach the -40°C to -80°C range.
- Air-cooled condenser: two heavy-duty fans dissipate heat with no liquid coolant required.
How to Choose the Right Ultra-Low Freezer
Selecting an ultra-low freezer means matching chamber capacity, temperature class, and site infrastructure to your sample inventory. Review these axes before specifying a unit for your lab.
- Capacity: the 28 cu.ft. (792 L) chamber holds up to 30 racks across five compartments, so confirm your current and projected sample count.
- Temperature range: a -40°C to -80°C span suits biological samples, enzymes, and reagents that demand deep-frozen storage; match the range to your protocol.
- Control type: a microprocessor digital controller with dual display and tamper-proof lockout supports compliance-driven monitoring and reduces accidental setpoint changes.
- Voltage: verify whether your facility supplies 115V, 208V, 230V, or 220V single-phase circuits and size the dedicated line accordingly.
- Footprint and weight: exterior dimensions of 54" × 37" × 79.5" and a 1,125 lb load require clearance, floor rating, and a delivery path.
- Safety and backup: battery-backed alarms, remote alarm relay, and automatic power-failure recovery protect samples during outages.
