Used Cryogenic Storage for Sale

Used Cryogenic Storage

Temperature-sensitive materials must be handled under specific conditions for safe use and storage.

Ultra-low temperature freezers enable labs to store and preserve samples and products within a temperature range of approximately -40° Celsius to -80° Celsius. Cryogenic storage tanks, however, can preserve samples at even lower temperatures using liquid nitrogen (LN2).

At New Life Scientific, we buy and sell used cryogenic storage systems for customers across a wide variety of industries and research facilities.

Choosing the Right Cryogenic Storage System

The capacity to keep samples at a consistent temperature within your acceptable range is critical for protecting results and preventing waste, which is one reason why selecting the right model is so vital. The specific unit that is best for your application depends on several factors.

Storage Method

There are two primary cryogenic storage methods you can choose from:

• Liquid phase: The system submerges the sample in LN2, which requires additional protective sealing to prevent leakage.
• Vapor phase: Your samples hang above the LN2 level, which helps to reduce the risk of cross-contamination.

Capacity and Sample Format

You need to match your system capacity to the actual sample volume and format you use. For example, you may need a high-volume cryovial system if you handle many cryovials simultaneously.

Static Hold Time

For vapor-phase units, the static hold time is a measurement of how long the system can maintain temperature without an LN2 top-off. Longer hold times mean the system requires less frequent refill intervals, which can help mitigate risk for labs that experience staffing gaps or need to close for longer holidays.

Monitoring and Alarms

Temperature logging and low-level LN2 alerts protect irreplaceable samples from undetected excursions. Systems with remote alarms let labs catch problems before a weekend or holiday can result in a lost freezer.
