Laboratory refrigerators and freezers provide uniform and stable temperature and signal alarms to alert the user of critical conditions. This is to ensure that the thousands to millions of dollars worth of valuable products won't go to waste.
Esco HP Series laboratory refrigerators and freezers are designed for laboratory use to efficiently store temperature-sensitive biological samples, reagents, vaccines, culture media and pharmaceutical products that demand critical sample storage conditions.
Must-have features to consider:
- Efficient refrigeration design for optimum cooling performance
- Low power consumption for big energy-savings
- Forced-air circulation system for better temperature uniformity and fast recovery after door open events
- Intelligent automatic defrost feature that defrosts only when needed
- Intuitive and easy-to-use control systems
- Insulated door with magnetic gasket seals
- Energy-saving LED light that has a longer lifespan than fluorescent lights
Standard Controller is a microprocessor controller with a back-lit LCD and alphanumeric display for temperature, date, alarms, and etc. It is easy to use for configuration of temperature set points, alarms, and various other settings. It gives audible and visual alarms for high/low temperature, door open, and power failure.
Touchscreen Controller visualizes the functioning status of the unit and chamber the temperature through a live graph. It gives audible and visual alarms for high/low temperature, door open, and power failure. The SD Card and USB slot enable the download of all functional data of the system, important parameters, and technical documents in digital format.

A household refrigerator is designed to store food products for consumption such as meat, dairy, and vegetables. The temperature may be adjusted through a thermostat dial and is not strictly regulated to a specific set point since food items generally do not need precise temperature regulation. It is a low-cost equipment, which is why it is usually purchased as substitute equipment for sample storage. On the contrary, a lab grade refrigerator cost more. It is equipped with a microprocessor controller that ensures accurate temperature setting and provides alarms to signal critical conditions for storage of temperature-sensitive products. It is the right equipment to store biological samples, vaccines, reagents, and other temperature-sensitive products in the lab.
Yes. The triple-pane glass door is made of tempered glass. This type of technology employs better insulation compared to any other glass door technology in the market.
None. The auto defrost feature prevents formation of ice in the chamber. It provides better sample protection as it protects the samples from being exposed to temperatures beyond the setpoint.
Yes. The refrigerants are environmentally friendly since it has zero ozone depletion potential and low global warming potential.
Yes. The internal chamber is made of AISI 304 stainless steel. It is known for its medically significant characteristics such as corrosion-resistance, cleanability, and durability
Yes. This is thanks to the HP Series Lab Refrigerator's excellent temperature uniformity that enables safe storage of samples anywhere inside the chamber. This type of feature is what is missing in a commercial-grade/ white box/ household-type of cold storage. That is why such type of storage equipment is not recommended for storage and preservation of vaccines and other temperature-sensitive products.
Forced-air convection. This type of system enables fast temperature pull-down and better overall uniformity.
Yes, Through RJ45 port using MODBUS Protocol. *touchscreen models only
Yes. This is a default feature on all units.
Yes. It has a polyurethane foam insulation to ensure the chamber is protected from thermal intrusions.
The refrigerator is in the upper chamber and the freezer is in the lower chamber.
Yes. Each chamber has its own controller. That means both compartments are completely independent of each other.
Yes. Not just each chamber has its own controller, but also, the lab freezer and lab refrigerator each has its own refrigeration system. This allows users to turn off one chamber when not needed without affecting the other chamber's performance.
