A wide range of Ultra-low              

temperature freezers.

this product family offers different types

and models of ultra-low freezer which can

achieve and maintain temperatures down

to -86ºC (-123ºf) at ambient temperature 

of 30ºC (85ºf). It is  a wide selection, offer-

ing a variety of sizes and types suitable 

for uses such as long term preservation, 

testing, frozen storage etc.

Specially Designed Compressor for

Ultra-Low Temperature.

the refrigeration system is at the heart of

producing ultra-low temperature freezing.

In the process of developing various 

technical solutions in order to achieve and 

maintain ultra-low temperatures, sanyo 

designed a compressor especially for ultra 

low-temperature use. sanyo is a leading 

manufacturer of ultra-low temperature 

freezers that develops and produces all its 

own components, from the refrigeration 

units to the microprocessors.

An Ideal Freezing Environment By

Means of A Double-Insulation Wall 

and the “Hot Line”.

In ultra-low temperature freezers,

effective insulation is extremely critical

since the temperature difference between

the outside and the inner compartment

can be as high as 115ºC. the insulation

used in sanyo’s ultra-low temperature

freezers is two layers of rigid,

foamed in place polyurethane. this design

prevents the insulation layers from

distortion and cracking that might occur

due to temperature differences inside and

out, and creates the most efficient

insulation material available today.

moisture condensation at the top edges

of the cabinet due to differences in

temperature inside and out causes frost

and icing problems, which may reduce

heat insulation efficiency and obstruct

door movements. they are prevented by

the “hot line” by means of which hot gas

from the higher temperature circuit is

circulated through the problem areas.

Evolutionary Design

 the newly developed refrigeration 

system and freezer structure minimizes 

intrusive operating noise.

 the newly developed back cover 

combined with new aerodynamically 

designed and placed components in the 

refrigeration compartment provide supe-

rior air flow, making it possible to drasti-

cally reduce the stress to the freezer and 

contributing to excellent durability.

 two independent and insulated inner 

doors ensure maximum interior chamber 

uniformity.

Safety

 High and low temperature warning pro-

vides an audible and visual alarm when 

the temperature deviates more than ±5°C 

to ±20°C (adjustable) from the set point.

 alarm ring back function ensures that 

buzzer will resume operation, should 

alarm conditions continue after it is 

silenced.

 microprocessor-controlled filter-clog 

check function

 protects the refrigeration circuit.

 Control panel with digital display for 

easy operation.

*Cooling performance is indicated by the temperature reached at 

the center of the freezer (at ambient temperature of 30C with no 

load). In order to use the freezer at a stable temperature for a long 

time, it is recommended that the temperature be set to at least 5C 

higher than the indicated lowest temperature. 

In addition, depending on the usage conditions, it may not be 

possible to reach the indicated lowest temperature.
