Product Description
Meet the cutting-edge solutions for cryogenic storage with the Small-Sized Storage Series Square Racks, models YR05371 to YR05382. These models are meticulously engineered to offer optimal storage in laboratory environments where space and efficiency are paramount. The series comprises various models, each tailored to meet specific storage requirements, featuring different capacities for cryovials ranging from 100 to 1110, and liquid nitrogen (LN2) volumes from 10 to 50 liters.
The models YR05371-YR05382 have various technical advantages, including a static evaporation rate as low as 0.35 L/Day and a holding time of up to 130 days, making them highly efficient under minimal supervision. They have a uniform opening diameter of 125-127 mm across models, ensuring compatibility with standard laboratory setups. Depending on the model, the units come with several racks, integrated cryoboxes, and some feature lockable caps for added security. Additionally, optional protective jackets and roller bases enhance their practicality, particularly in dynamically changing laboratory environments.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the maximum number of cryovials these racks can store?
The storage capacity varies across models, with the capacity to hold anywhere from 100 to 1110 cryovials.
Do these storage units come with a lockable cap?
Yes, several models in this series do come with a lockable cap for enhanced security. However, specific models like YR05371 do not include this feature.
Are roller bases included with these products?
A roller base is optional across all models, allowing for increased mobility as required by laboratory needs.
Advantages and Disadvantages
Advantages: The Small-Sized Storage Series offers reliable performance with long static holding times, low LN2 evaporation rates, and substantial storage capacities that fit various laboratory requirements. Additionally, the inclusion of lockable caps in certain models enhances the security of specimen storage.
Disadvantages: Some users might find the absence of a protective jacket or lockable cap in certain models limiting. Additionally, while the mobility of a roller base can be advantageous, it is available as an optional feature rather than standard.
Field Use
In practical laboratory settings, these storage units are invaluable for preserving biological specimens at cryogenic temperatures. Their compact design fits seamlessly in limited spaces without compromising capacity or functionality. These racks facilitate organized storage with multiple layered cryoboxes, ensuring samples are systematically stored and easily accessible when needed, which enhances the efficiency of laboratory operations.
Recommendations
To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of these cryogenic storage units, it is advisable to handle them with care and regularly inspect them for signs of wear, particularly focusing on seals and lids to prevent undue evaporation. When purchasing these units, consider opting for the roller base if your laboratory operations involve frequently moving units. Moreover, for increased protection, selecting models with a protective jacket is recommended for harsher storage environments.
