FASTER ultra-low temperature freezer M-series
The FASTER ultra-low temperature freezers in the M series are specially designed for laboratories and research facilities that require maximum safety, energy efficiency and reliable deep-freezing performance down to -86 °C. Thanks to the innovative dual cooling system and the use of environmentally friendly refrigerants, this series stands out from other models with its clear focus on sustainability, low energy consumption and exemplary operational safety. Similar technologies can be found in the [Haier DW-86L828BP], for example, which also uses innovative cooling components.
An outstanding feature of this model series is that the temperature can still be kept at -70 °C without any problems if a compressor fails. This offers double protection, as sensitive samples or valuable materials remain safely cooled even in emergency situations. In addition, the advanced insulation with VIP+Hybrid technology ensures extremely good insulation and significantly reduces power consumption.
Performance features of the M series
The M series is characterized by its strong cooling performance and sophisticated design. Combined with energy-efficient components throughout, the system is ideal for applications where a constant, very low temperature is essential. Similarly robust concepts are used in the [Telstar Cryo Series 500], whereby energy-saving fan technologies are installed here as in the M series.
In addition to the dual compressor system and the reliable design, the device supports the following points:
- Temperature range from -40 °C to -86 °C (adjustable in 1 °C increments)
- Powerful compressors with 7" touch screen, clear menu navigation
- Robust castors and height-adjustable feet for easy installation in the laboratory
- Multiple alarm functions (under- and overtemperature, power failure, sensor error)
- USB interface for reading out temperature and alarm data
The long data storage period is also remarkable: important operating information can be documented every 5 minutes so that up to ten years of temperature and alarm history can be retrieved. The high-performance ventilation technology from EBM Papst also helps to operate the system quietly and ensure ideal air circulation.
All models in the M series are CE and UL-certified, which provides additional safety in everyday laboratory work. Thanks to their stable design, cooling performance and stable operation are guaranteed even at ambient temperatures between 16 °C and 32 °C.
Concrete application examples
- Long-term storage of DNA and RNA samples in molecular biology laboratories.
- Safe storage of sensitive cell lines or antibodies in research facilities.
- Freezer storage of enzymes (e.g. Taq polymerase) or reagents that require a constant temperature below -70 °C.
- Long-term stability studies for pharmaceutical products, such as vaccines, which are particularly sensitive to cold.
For all these applications, the rapid cooling time from +25 °C to -80 °C (only around three hours) is a decisive advantage. The integrated password protection system, which protects against unauthorized changes to the relevant parameters, is also impressive.
Frequently asked questions
How does the M series record its alarm data?
A data record is created every five minutes, documenting both temperature and alarm statuses. This process runs automatically, ensuring seamless monitoring.
What happens in the event of a power failure
The device has a 72-hour battery backup that powers the microprocessor and touchscreen. This means that recordings and alarm functions remain active even if the power supply is interrupted.
Is it possible to add CO2 backup at a later date?
Yes, the M series supports a CO2 safety system with alarm backup and matching valve. This can be added on request to provide additional protection for the samples.
Are there any special maintenance requirements?
Routine inspection of the cascade freezing system is sufficient, apart from regular replacement of the pre-filter and general inspection of all systems. The robust sheet steel construction and stable bearing technology minimize maintenance costs.
Does the insulation prevent heat transfer during high sample circulation?
The 130 mm thick vacuum insulation layer provides excellent insulation. In addition, multi-sealed doors reduce unnecessary cold air losses within short circulation cycles.
Conclusion
The M-Series combines an energy-efficient and environmentally conscious design with a highly reliable cooling system. With first-class insulation, dual compressor technology and a sophisticated alarm system, it is an optimal solution for all laboratory environments where sensitive samples need to be stored at extremely low temperatures. The high flexibility in terms of available sizes and its uncomplicated handling in everyday use round off the overall package and make it an attractive choice for research and development.
