Product Code: CL5500M / SPECIFICATIONS

The FREEZE CONTROL CL5500 system is a preprogrammed biofreezer incorporating a temperature controller with built-in rechargeable battery for power failure protection or portable operation. This controller also can be powered from an external 12-volt source. The 5500 offers complete peace of mind when operating in areas of questionable AC mains power.

The CL5500 system comes with eight standard or custom resident programs. The CL5500 system is ideal for routine lab applications where the range of controlled temperature will not exceed -43°C. This system is also perfect for the mobile embryo transfer practitioner. For this application, a custom form- fitted transport case built to withstand the rigors of road or air travel is available.

This compact system, with its built-in power pack, offers failsafe protection against power failures or blackouts. The specimens being cryopreserved will never be affected by such incidents. From a full charge, running time is 3 to 4 hours (continuous) in absence of AC mains power.

The temperature control range for the CL5500 is +20°C to -43°C.

The CC23S Straw Cryochamber included in this system accommodates 23 x 0.5ml or 46 x 0.25ml straws. (A range of FREEZE CONTROL cryochambers is available to accommodate different applications. Please see the specifications under "Biofreezer System Options".)

The CL5500 system includes your choice of a 1.5 liter insulated and covered metal canister LN2 cryobath for freezing cycles of up to 90 minutes, a 3.8 liter cryobath for freezing cycles up to 3.5 hours, or a 2.3 Liter DX2 EPS foam cryobath with PTEG clear lid, for freezing cycles up to 2 hours.
