Noise Reduction
Ultra-low freezers are often located
within research and hospital laboratories
or production facilities. Users prefer
close proximity for easy access to valu-
able stored products.
If operating noise from refrigeration
compressors is excessive, and/or com-
pounded by installation of multiple freez-
ers in adjacent locations, the working
environment is severely compromised.
Panasonic has included advanced noise
abatement in all contemporary ultra-low
freezers and noise reduction levels are
well below those of competitive freez-
ers. Data is available upon request.
Panasonic Refrigeration Delivers
Uniform Temperature
The Panasonic cascade refrigeration
system uses Panasonic designed
compressors for high-performance, reli-
ability and peace of mind. Refrigeration
components are carefully selected and
matched for optimum operation under
demanding laboratory environments.
• Increased reserve cooling capacity
improves temperature recovery after
door openings.
• Quieter operation is achieved
through condenser fan blade design,
noise abatement insulation and anti-
vibration mounts.
• Voltage boost and surge protection
devices permit dependable operation
over wider power ranges and environ-
mental conditions.
(Except MDF-U76VA)
Electrical Standards
All Panasonic products including ultra-
low temperature freezers are tested
and certified by an NRTL (National
Recognized Testing Laboratory) to assure
compliance with US and International
standards for electrical safety prescribed
in 29 CFR 1910.7( c ).
Water Cooled Option (MDF-WCL)
Now a water cooled condenser option
is available for facilities equipped with
water recirculation cooling systems.
This option utilizes the cascade refrig-
eration design to reuse the energy
produced by an ultra low freezer while
delivering energy-savings and high
performance cooling.
Ideal for material storage in repositories,
hospitals, clinics and medical research
facilities, the water cooled system is
designed to significantly reduce energy
consumption.
• Energy efficiency
• Cost saving
• Re-use of energy
• Faster recovery time
• Improved sample security
Water Cooled Option (MDF-WCL) How It Works
Phase 1
Heat generated from the freezer compartment is trans-
ferred to a water circuit using a plate heat exchanger
Phase 2
Transport the absorbed heat/energy
Phase 3
Able to re-use heat/energy on other heat/energy
demanding systems.
Applies to MDF-U33V, MDF-U53VA, MDF-U56VC, MDF-U76VC, MDF-U76VA
Inventory Management
The concept of High Density Storage
is enabled by advances in Panasonic
Cool Safe compressor design. The cost
per 2" box of interior storage space is
significantly lower in a Panasonic ultra-
low freezer, generating immediate return
on investment based on first costs,
operating costs and maintenance costs
over time.
Additionally, the placement of evaporator
surfaces within the cabinet walls achieve
exceptional documented ultra-low tem-
perature uniformity, thereby permitting
investigators more freedom in placing
valuable cell lines and biologicals within
the interior cabinet, and assuring uniform
cell viability when harvesting products
from the ultra-low archive.
Because benefits of the Panasonic Cool
Safe compressor design extend to evap-
orator tubing surrounding the interior
chamber, and the interior chamber is part
of the thin-wall composite based on the
patented VIP
vacuum insulation panel
®
cabinet, Panasonic can offer more usable
storage volume within the same sq.ft. of
floor space than competitive models.
