General Recommendations
This section includes some general recommendations for
your unit.
Temperature Monitoring
IMPORTANT NOTE: We recommend the use of
a redundant and independent temperature
monitoring system so that the unit can be
monitored continuously for performance
commensurate with the value of product stored.
Intended Use
The freezers described in this manual are lab-grade, general
purpose units intended to store non-critical samples at
operating temperatures between -12ºC to -27ºC.
These units are not registered as medical devices or any other
medical applications by a medical device regulatory body
(e.g. FDA): that is, they have not been evaluated for the
storage of samples for diagnostic use or for samples to be re-
introduced to the body.
These units are not intended for use in classified hazardous
locations, nor to be used for the storage of flammable or
corrosive inventory.
These freezers are not suitable for outdoor location.
CAUTION: Storage of unsealed corrosive
substances may cause the interior of the unit to
corrode.
Initial Loading
Allow the unit to operate at the desired temperature for a
minimum of 24 hours before loading.
Load the unit one shelf at a time, starting from bottom to top
shelf. After loading each shelf, allow the unit to recover to the
