2. Overview
The CryoPod™ Carrier is a portable liquid nitrogen (LN
₂
) based system that, with the CryoPod Carrier
lid secure, provides over four hours of < -150°C temperature stability for the handling and
transportation of cryogenic biospecimens. The system’s battery powered electronic module displays
the cryogenic chamber temperature as well as operator defined parameters such as date, time,
instrument identification, alarms and log function activation.
The included manual fill kit facilitates the system LN
₂
charging process utilizing approximately 3 liters
of LN
₂
. The cryogenic chamber consists of an aluminum basket that is seated above the LN
₂
absorbent pad assembly, eliminating contact between the chamber’s biological contents and LN
₂
.
With a built-in handle and compact dimensions, the CryoPod Carrier can be hand-carried over short
distances such as around a laboratory or research campus to extend the cryogenic cold chain.
