Eppendorf – Freezers
Eppendorf offers different lines of ultra-low temperature freezers to meet a variety of needs, from upright freezers to chest and foam insulated freezers.
How to select Ultra-Low Temperature freezers for my lab?
Sample storage in the lab is not limited to the freezer. The process of sample storage includes the right selection of vessels, a reliable labeling/ identification of your samples, robust freezer boxes and racks, a convenient sample management tool, the freezer itself, and freezer performance monitoring systems.
Eppendorf offers different lines of -80 °C lab freezers to meet a variety of needs. Depending on the approach, there are different questions to answer before you select your Ultra-Low-Temperature freezers, also known as ULT freezers to store your freezer boxes and your valuable samples:
- Do you need an upright freezer or a chest freezer to store your freezer boxes?
- Do you want a foam-insulated freezer wall enforced by vacuum insulation panels or is foam sufficient?
- Which footprint in the lab is sufficient and/ or acceptable?
- When choosing an upright freezer, do you need a 3- or 5-compartment instrument?
- Do you need a future-proof freezer with green cooling liquids as R290/ R170?
- Do you want to connect your UTL freezer?
As your ULT freezer is a longterm investment, a careful planning and validation is recommended.We want to provide you with high performance, sample safety, and convenience.

More About CryoCube® F570 Series - ULT FreezerCryoCube® F570 Series - ULT Freezer
The Eppendorf CryoCube F570 series of ULT freezers (also known as ultra-low temperature freezer/-80 °C freezer) is based on a strong compressor for fast recovery to -80 °C after opening. As this class of freezer is often used as real-lab freezer, multiple openings per day are normal – a dynamic and strong cooling system is mandatory for fast recovery to -80 °C after every opening. Provide your valuable samples a safe and cold location. The freezer minimizes operating costs while providing superior protection for your critical samples. A combined insulation based on vacuum insulation panels and polyurethane foam enables extremely low energy consumption during long-term storage (“h” versions). Benefit from sustainable cold storage combined with safe sample storage.
How can I choose the right ULT freezer in a 500 – 600 L/400 freezer box scale for my lab?
The Eppendorf CryoCube F570 series offers a 5-compartment lay-out and 5 insulated inner doors for easy sample access and safe sample storage at -80 °C. The walls are 130 mm thick based on foam and vacuum insulation panels (for the “h” version).
The ULT freezer represents the volume class of 570 L (20.1 cubic feet) and a temperature range from -50 °C to -86 °C. The CryoCube F570 series is based on three different freezer models:
CryoCube F570n:
• 130 mm wall (polyurethane insulation)
• “Green” hydrocarbon-based cooling liquids (R290/ R170)
• Air-cooling
CryoCube F570h:
• 130 mm wall (polyurethane insulation and vacuum insulation panels)
• “Green” hydrocarbon-based cooling liquids (R290/ R170)
• Air-cooling
CryoCube F570hw:
• 130 mm wall (polyurethane insulation and vacuum insulation panels)
• “Green” hydrocarbon-based cooling liquids (R290/ R170) for 230 V
• Water-cooling
Key features of the Eppendorf CryoCube F570 ULT freezer series:
- Easy sample access: The Eppendorf CryoCube F570 series offers a 5-compartment lay-out and 5 insulated inner doors for easy sample access and safe sample storage at -80 °C. The walls are 130 mm thick based on foam and vacuum insulation panels (for the “h” version).
- Sustainable footprint: By using highly efficient technologies, the CryoCube F570h lab freezer has a very low power consumption value. This future-oriented instrument class provides consumption levels which are ahead of most competitors within this volume class, certified by ENERGY STAR®.
- Increased sample safety storage: The most important aspect of long-term sample storage is safety. The CryoCube F570 series of freezers is equipped with reliable heavy-duty compressors (2-stage cascade cooling system). Quick pull-down times enable fast re-use after cleaning/defrosting of the instrument. The freezers have short recovery times after opening to provide extra sample safety (Door-Open-Recovery/DOR) when getting back to -80 °C.

When it comes to maximizing sample storage capacity at the bench, the Eppendorf CryoCube F101h ULT freezer sets the standard: Up to 6,000 vessels below your bench in the lab with real -80°C. By taking advantage of ultra-efficient, compact vacuum insulation panels which are used in combination with traditional PU foam insulation, we slim down the freezer wall thickness from 130 mm to 80 mm.
The footprint is limited to half a square meter, especially designed for small labs. The temperature range for this -80°C lab freezer is between -50 °C and -86 °C.
Features of the CryoCube F101h
- Vacuum insulation panels allow for increased internal capacity with the same footprint as traditionally foamed freezers
- Inner doors are gasketed as well as insulated creating 2 separate compartments minimizing cold air loss while you access your samples
- Easy-to-read LED control panel and alarm status
- Special vacuum vent with plunger ergonomically located to gain immediate access to your freezer
- Inner doors can be quickly removed without the need for tools for easier and faster defrosting
- Full stainless steel interior for easy cleaning during maintenance and defrost cycles; powder-coated steel exterior
- Special low-temperature outer door seals allow gaskets to remain flexible at –86 °C and prevent ice buildup for easy access to samples
- Password protection of alarm and temperature setpoints to prevent unauthorized setting changes
