Scientemp Model 43-1.7 Small Chest Freezer 0°C to-43°C with 1.7 Cu. Ft. Capacity

Scientemp 43-1.7 Low Temperature Chest Freezer

The Scientemp 43-1.7 provides specialized, high-integrity low-temperature storage with a compact 1.7 cu. ft. capacity, specifically engineered for critical research applications requiring temperatures down to -43°C. Furthermore, proudly Manufactured in the USA, this "bench-neighbor" chest freezer is the ideal solution for laboratories with limited space that still require a stable, deep sub-zero environment for high-value samples.

Finally, its industrial-grade construction and precision digital controls ensure that biological specimens, enzymes, and reagents remain protected in a uniform thermal chamber.

Primary Applications for the Scientemp 43-1.7 Chest Freezer

The Scientemp 43-1.7 is a high-performance cooling solution found in specialized facilities requiring localized -43°C performance:

• Point-of-Use Research Storage: Ideal for keeping cell cultures, stem cells, and genomic materials immediately accessible at the laboratory workstation.

• Specialized Enzyme & Reagent Preservation: Provides a secure, dedicated environment for high-value biologicals requiring temperatures colder than standard freezers.

• Small-Volume Vaccine Preservation: Perfect for clinical pharmacies and research labs managing small, sensitive batches of vaccines or pharmaceuticals.

• Clinical Specimen Archiving: Trusted for the secure, documented archiving of diagnostic materials in restricted spaces.

Scientemp 43-1.7 Robust American Construction

Despite its small footprint, the Scientemp 43-1.7 features the same industrial-strength build as Scientemp’s largest units.

• Heavy Welded Galvannealed Steel: The exterior is built from heavy-duty steel with a corrosion-resistant powder-coated finish for maximum durability.

• High-Density Thermal Efficiency: Superior urethane foam insulation provides a massive thermal barrier, maximizing temperature retention in a compact frame.

• Reliable Lid Access: Designed for safe and easy reach-in access, the lid features a magnetic gasket that creates a high-integrity, frost-resistant seal.

• Security & Access Control: Equipped with a durable chrome-plated handle and a cylinder key lock to prevent unauthorized access to sensitive samples.

Reliable -43°C Temperature Control & Performance

The Scientemp 43-1.7 utilizes advanced refrigeration technology to maintain precision temperatures in its localized chamber.

• Precision Digital Microprocessor: Offers intuitive temperature management with a digital display accurate to 0.1°C for constant monitoring of critical materials.

• Rapid Thermal Recovery: Engineered for high-speed cooling and fast recovery times after the lid is opened, protecting samples from thermal shock.

• Eco-Friendly Refrigeration Mechanics: Features a CFC-free refrigeration system using environmentally compliant refrigerants and energy-efficient components.

• Ultra-Quiet Performance: Optimized for low-noise operation, making it ideal for placement directly on or near laboratory benches.

Advanced Alarm & Safety Systems

Protecting localized research is a primary mission of the Scientemp 43-1.7, supported by a comprehensive suite of redundant monitoring features.

• Visual & Audible High/Low Alarms: Immediate notification of any thermal excursions beyond your customized -43°C setpoints.

• Power Failure Notification: An integrated alarm system alerts staff to power interruptions, while the battery backup keeps the alarm system active during outages.

• Remote Alarm Integration: Features remote alarm contacts for seamless connection to central laboratory monitoring or building management systems (BMS).

• Customizable Alarm Delay: Prevents nuisance alerts during routine sample loading by allowing users to adjust the alarm response time.
