Thermo Scientific™ Forma™ 89000 Series Ultra-Low Freezers

Description

Designed with new energy-savings and sustainability features, Thermo Scientific™ Forma™ 89000 Series ultra-low freezers feature four upright models, maximizing storage capacity from 30,000 up to 60,000 2mL vials. A simplified touch-screen interface, utilizing capacitive touch, enables easy access to setpoints, data and other performance and security information.

Performance

• Save up to  25%  in energy usage and heat rejection over conventional refrigerant ultra-low freezers¹
• Meets validation protocols at -70°C and -80°C with strong peak variation and steady-state temperature variation
• Low sound output below 53 dBA, enabling the freezer to come out of the hallway and into the lab for more efficient sample access.
• Natural hydrocarbon refrigerants reduce system operating stresses promoting outstanding reliability and sample protection
• Designed for daily usage, recovers cabinet temperature 20% faster after opening the door.² 

Wireless Monitoring Solution

Thermo Scientific™ DeviceLink™ comes embedded in your ULT freezer  providing real-time monitoring of system status and sample temperature.

• View critical lab equipment data and equipment notifications on your mobile and web applications.
  • Display temperature
  • Ambient temperature
  • Alarm and alerts notification
• Access data anytime, anywhere—data and alarms from monitored lab equipment are securely stored on the Cloud and sent to the user via email and mobile-phone notifications
• InstrumentConnect™ streamlined dashboard-style reporting reduces time spent interpreting data
• Unlike traditional connectivity methods, DeviceLink™ operates on a client-cloud architecture, requiring minimal IT support
• No need to install sensors—the only plug-in is the equipment data port to read the parameters directly from the factory-installed sensors
• Applicable Networks: WPA2-PSK, WPA-PSK, WEP, WPA2-EAP-PEAP, WPA-EAP-PEAP

User Friendly

• Four capacities (300, 400, 500 and 600 2-inch box) to accommodate a variety of storage needs and lab footprint specifications
• All models contain four inner doors allowing for easy sample access without exposing greater freezer content to ambient conditions
• Improved customer convenience with new ergonomically designed handle, high contrast eye-level display, and comfortable easy-access shelf locations.
• Newly re-designed, capacitive touch-screen user interface with easy-to-use: set-up wizard, event log, temperature mapping and data downloads via a built-in USB port
• On board temperature and event archive allows for quick access to freezer information.  Export a secure USB report and eliminate the need for a chart recorder.
• Compatible with most racking systems including a full range of Thermo Scientific™ racks for boxes, microplates, Thermo Scientific™ Matrix™ and Nunc CryoBank™ tubes
• Security features including alarm settings, padlock-compatible doors and optional access card entry

Sustainability

• Natural refrigerants and water-blown foam insulation, making the Series compliant with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s Significant New Alternatives Policy (SNAP), the European Union’s F-Gas and other sustainability standards
• Manufactured in an award-winning, zero-waste to landfill facility
• Lower HVAC costs as a result of less heat emission into the environment
