Thermo Locator 4 – Features
The Thermo Scientific Locator 4 indexed storage system offers cost-effective and efficient sample storage with advanced features for reliability. Utilizing the cooling power of naturally sourced nitrogen gas, it eliminates the use of halogenated hydrocarbon refrigerants, addressing greenhouse gas concerns.
This system ensures outstanding temperature uniformity, maintaining samples below –180°C even with less than 2 inches (5 cm) of liquid nitrogen. Advanced vacuum insulation minimizes liquid nitrogen evaporation, reducing operating costs, while the lockable lid enhances sample security for peace of mind.
Testing
This Thermo Locator 4 is used and reconditioned. Our technicians thoroughly test all equipment to ensure it functions properly and meets the manufacturer’s specifications. When you place an order, we fill dewars with liquid nitrogen to standard levels and monitor the evaporation rate. If the unit has autofill functionality, we connect it to an LN2 tank to verify all components work correctly.
Additionally, if you have specific testing requirements or requests, please inform us. We will gladly work with you to ensure these requirements are addressed during testing.
