Eppendorf Ultra-Low Temperature (ULT) chest freezers (-80°C) combine high storage capacity with energy saving. As the freezer is accessed from the top, the cold air is kept in the freezer. Based on this, the samples are even safer than in a conventional upright freezer. Eppendorf offers different size/volume classes as chest ULT freezers.
Eppendorf ULT chest freezers are known for their energy efficiency, reliability, and worry-free, long-term sample preservation.
