ScienTemp 85-6.8EX Explosion Proof Chest ULT Freezer – 6.8 Cu.Ft. –85°C

ScienTemp Corporation 85-6.8EX Explosion Proof Chest Freezer, 6.8 cu. ft., -45 C to -85 C, 78" Width, Class 1-Division 1 and 2 (Groups C and D), Polyurethane, 115 or 230 Voltage Options

The ScienTemp 85-6.8EX Ultra-Low Explosion Proof Chest Freezer is a mission-critical storage solution engineered to perform in the most volatile laboratory and industrial environments. Specifically designed to meet stringent Class 1, Division 1 and 2 (Groups C and D) safety standards, this unit provides a secure, spark-free environment for materials that require extreme thermal stability.

With a robust temperature range spanning from -45°C to -85°C, it is the ideal choice for preserving high-value genomic assets, volatile chemicals, and sensitive clinical samples. This 6.8-cubic-foot model utilizes a sophisticated dual-stage refrigeration system and high-performance R-513A/R-508B refrigerants to ensure rapid pull-down and consistent deep-freeze integrity.

The heavy-duty polyurethane insulation and gravity-fed air circulation work harmoniously to maintain a uniform internal climate, even under demanding operational cycles. Security is paramount, featuring a keyed hasp lock to prevent unauthorized access, while the analog dial controller offers simplified, fail-safe temperature management.

Built for longevity and compliance, the 85-6.8EX represents a seamless blend of American engineering and uncompromising safety protocols. It is an essential asset for pharmaceutical research, petrochemical testing, and any facility where ultra-low cooling must coexist with explosive-hazard protection.
