The MVE Variō™ Series
Introducing innovative and energy efficient ULT and cryogenic storage
An energy-efficient biobanking solution that offers ultra-low temperatures, keeping you firmly in control.
The innovative MVE Variō™ Series is an alternative to ULT mechanical freezers, keeping you firmly in control. That’s because both the MVE 1500 and 1800 Variō™ series models offer user-defined temperatures anywhere between -20°C and -150°C. Furthermore, the available conversion kit allows you to operate the Variō™ as a high-efficiency -190°C freezer.
Be ultra-confident in your samples
The MVE Variō™ Series offers a completely dry sample storage area which means you’ll reduce the possibility of sample contamination via contact with LN2. Furthermore, the series offers a consistent temperature profile unlike mechanical freezers, which allow heat to enter when opened. Even when the lid is opened or warm samples are introduced, there’s minimal temperature variability. This means you are constantly protecting innocent samples from transient warming events that may continue to heat after the freezer is closed.
Enjoy ultra-low running costs
Compared to mechanical freezers, MVE Variō™ cryogenic freezers use less than 1% of the power consumption. You’ll also enjoy around a 70% saving in the overall operating costs compared to leading mechanical freezers.
Features
- Approximately 70% operating cost savings compared to leading mechanical freezers (-80°C)
- Less than 1% of the electricity consumption compared to leading mechanical freezers (-80°C)
- Completely dry storage area
- Consistent temperature profile, even with lid open
- Improved processing time, minimal increase in temperature when warm samples introduced
- No thermal load; no heat introduced into room and no additional HVAC required
- No more expensive compressors to replace
- Convertible asset: can be retrofitted to expand temperature range to -190°C
- CE marked to Medical Device Directive (MDD)
- Programmable Temperature variability gives greater flexibility for samples from biological samples to cold store vaccines
- Maintains cryogenic temperature for up to 96 hours if liquid nitrogen supply removed.
- Battery back-up means power failure does not impact on the performance of the freezer.
