Freeze-Thaw

-20°C to 100°C working temperature range supports demanding freeze-thaw cycling across industrial, pharmaceutical, and food and beverage applications.

Durable

Stainless steel construction, removable inner chamber walls, and a 4-point door latch system are built for demanding daily use and easy maintenance.

Rapid Cycling

Patented forced air convection delivers rapid heating and cooling throughout the chamber, minimizing the transition time between temperature extremes and maximizing the number of daily cycles.

Smart

The EVO controller delivers precise, repeatable cycling with 100 stored programs and 100 segments each for complex freeze-thaw profiles.

Built for Demanding Freeze-Thaw Cycling

Stainless steel construction and five layers of insulation efficiently maintain conditions while withstanding repeated extreme temperature swings.

Every element of the Friocell EVO FT, from its seamless, rounded-corner stainless steel chamber to its fully removable interior walls and five layers of insulation, is engineered for durability and ease of maintenance through repeated freeze-thaw cycling between -20°C and 100°C.
  • Seamless 304 stainless steel chamber with rounded corners to simplify cleaning.
  • Fully removable inner chamber walls improves access for thorough cleaning and maintenance.
  • Molded shelving brackets in the chamber walls spaced 2.8″ apart allow for flexible shelf positioning to accommodate varying loads.
  • 4-point door latch system securely seals the door to the chamber gasket.
  • Five layers of insulation minimizes heat loss and efficiently maintains chamber conditions.
  • Standard 2″ stainless steel access port with 1″, 2″, and 4″ options available for routing sensors, probes, or external connections.
  • Inner glass door allows sample viewing without disrupting chamber conditions.

Precise Control Through Every Cycle

The EVO controller delivers consistent, repeatable performance across every freeze-thaw cycle.

The Friocell EVO FT is equipped with the EVO controller, featuring a 5.7-inch color touchscreen with glove-friendly operation and Fuzzy Logic for real-time adaptive control. With 100 stored programs and 100 segments each, the EVO controller supports complex freeze-thaw profiles across an unlimited number of cycles, ensuring consistent, repeatable results from the first cycle to the last.
  • 5.7-inch color touchscreen with glove-friendly operation.
  • Fuzzy logic microprocessor for real-time adaptive control.
  • 100 stored programs with 100 segments each for diverse test profiles, unlimited cycles.
  • Real-time programming with configurable temperature ramping settings.
  • Graphic cycle display for easy cycle status monitoring.
  • Acoustic and visual alarms with continuous chamber condition monitoring.
  • Integrated 30-day data logger with Excel-formatted export.
  • USB, SD card, RS 232, and optional Ethernet connectivity for data export and network integration.
  • Multi-level user authentication and optional 21 CFR Part 11-supporting data management through Warmcomm software.

Patented Forced Air Convection

Simultaneous vertical and horizontal airflow delivers uniform temperatures with rapid heating and cooling

The patented forced air convection system generates simultaneous vertical and horizontal airflow that circulates from the bottom of the chamber to the top, simulating natural airflow principles. The result is uniform temperature distribution throughout the chamber, ensuring every sample is exposed to the same freeze-thaw conditions regardless of shelf position.
  • Simultaneous vertical and horizontal airflow eliminates the hot and cold zones common in single-direction forced air systems while delivering rapid heating and cooling throughout the chamber.
  • Bottom-to-top circulation simulates natural airflow principles, providing greater accuracy to real-world conditions.
  • Consistent conditions across every sample, supporting accurate, reproducible test results.
