Thermo Scientific™ TSX Series -80°C Freezers

Thermo Scientific™ TSX Series feature V-drive technology, providing temperature uniformity that adapts to your environment, protecting samples and offering significant energy savings. While conventional ultra-low freezers use single speed compressors that continually cycle on and off, the V-drive runs at variable speeds, adjusting cooling performance to the conditions inside and outside the freezer. When conditions are stable, the V-drive runs at a low speed, reducing energy consumption while maintaining a stable temperature for sample protection. When there are frequent door openings, or samples are added to the freezer, the system detects the activity and increases the drive speed.

Now available in 2 capacities:

400 box capacity interior design, allowing the storage of up to 40,000 2mL tubes or 67,600 1mL tubes inside a single freezer of 0.79m2 footprint and only 82.2cm width (includes handle).
600 box capacity interior design, allowing the storage of up to 60,000 2mL tubes or 101,400 1mL tubes inside a single freezer of 1.06m2 footprint and only 110.1cm width (includes handle).

Significant energy savings over conventional ultra-low freezers: - TSX 400: 7.9 kW-hour/day and - TSX 600: 8.7 kW-hour/day*

Peak variation from -80°C set-point:

TSX 400: +6/+1.1 (standard mode), +4/-1.4 (high-performance mode)**
TSX 600 +6.9/+1.8 (standard mode), +4.4/-0.4 (high-performance mode)**

Warm-up time (from -80°C to -50°C): TSX 400: 267 min / TSX 600: 303 minutes***
Natural refrigerants for lower environmental impact and higher cooling efficiency
Water-blown foam insulation, eliminating chemical emissions and reducing the out-gassing common in other foam products
Whisper-quiet operation allowing the freezer to be used directly inside the lab
Intuitive touch-screen user interface featuring alarm status, door-opening status, temperature status, environmental conditions and back-up system status

* Energy calculation: Typical freezer data based on internal testing with freezer set-point at -80°C and ambient temperature at 20°C

** Peak variation from set point: Typical freezer data based on internal testing with freezer set point at -80°C and ambient temperature at 20°C
