Cascade Cooling System

Low Stage Capillary Tube. Liquid refrigerant
under pressure is passed through the capillary
tube where it flash evaporates in the low stage
evaporator to absorb energy (heat) from the
product stored in the freezer.

Freezer Cabinet with Evaporator.

The evaporator coil is strategically wrapped
around the interior chamber and concealed
within the composite wall of vacuum insulation
panels and conventional foamed-in-place
urethane insulation.

Low Stage Refrigerant. Commonly
available worldwide, R508.

Low Stage Heat Exchanger. Energy is
absorbed by the refrigerant gas and transferred
to the low-stage heat exchanger to cool
discharge gas.

Low Stage Compressor. The compressor
pumps refrigerant through the low stage circuit.

Low Stage Oil Reservoir. High stage
refrigerant passes through the low-stage oil
sump to cool lubricating oil resulting in high­stage compressor energy being used to minimize
the workload on the low stage compressor.

Interstage Heat Exchanger. Energy is
transferred to the high stage circuit.

High Stage Capillary Tube. Liquid
refrigerant under pressure is passed
through the capillary tube where it
flash evaporates in the interstage heat
exchanger to absorb energy (heat) from
the low stage refrigerant circuit.

Main Condenser and Motor/Fan
Assembly. The motor/fan assembly

blows ambient air across condenser coils
to move energy (heat) from the high stage
refrigerant to the ambient environment.

High Stage Refrigerant. Commonly
available worldwide. Selected for optimum
cooling performance in compliance with
international environmental protection laws.

Air Cooled Pre-Condenser. Removes
energy (heat) from the high stage refrigerant
enroute to the high stage oil reservoir.

High Stage Compressor. The
compressor pumps refrigerant through
the high stage circuit.

High Stage Oil Reservoir. High stage
refrigerant passes through the high stage
sump to cool lubricating oil en route to
the low stage compressor through the
air-cooled pre-condenser.

Air Cooled Pre-Condenser. Removes energy
(heat) from the high stage refrigerant enroute
to the low stage compressor.

Instrumentation (Not Shown). Temperature and pressure sensors throughout the high
and low stage circuits transmit information to the SANYO Status 3 central controller for
operation, monitoring and interpretation.

SANYO Cool Safe™ Compressor Technology: How It Works

By apportioning the oil cooling function between specially designed SANYO Cool Safe™ compressors, and by cooling the
compressor oil to minimize compressor operating temperatures, the SANYO ultra-low temperature freezer refrigeration system
is balanced to decrease component stress, increase system longevity and reliability, and improve temperature uniformity
necessary for better cell viability regardless of where the specimen is stored within the chamber.

extensive testing in a +30°C ambient to simulate worst-case conditions. When comparing performance of competitive
ultra-low freezers it is important to establish and verify conditions under which tests are performed. Tests performed
at temperatures below +30°C may exhibit lower compressor discharge temperatures; these discharge temperatures
are not typical of real-world conditions, however, and should be used with caution when evaluating new or
replacement freezer selection. For summary information on SANYO test conditions contact SANYO.

Variable. For 208V-230V, AC, 60Hz models testing is conducted over voltages ranges starting as low as 202V
to simulate brown-out conditions typical of real-world installations.

Variable. Thermal mass of a fully loaded freezer at equilibrium under normal ultra-low temperatures yields the best
performance data. SANYO freezers are tested under empty, half-load and full-load conditions.

Control, Alarm & Monitoring

The SANYO microprocessor control system is secure, easy to use and comprehensive. Setpoint, alarm parameters and self-diagnostic functions

are accessed through a tamper-resistant keypad protocol. Control inputs are managed with convenient push-ad buttons on a unitized, sealed

control overlay. The panel is door-mounted and angled for easy access.

RoHS Compliance

In 2006, RoHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substances)
legislation (EU Directive 2003/95/EU) became effective.
RoHS relates to the restriction of hazardous substances and
reductions in environmental pollution.

Through RoHS legislation the EU and other participating
countries are banning toxic substances in electrical equipment
such as lead, cadmium, mercury, chromium 6+, PBB and
PBDE.

While compliance with this legislation has posed a significant
challenge for SANYO, all SANYO ultra-low freezers and
components are now 100% compliant to RoHS standards.

Electrical Standards

All SANYO 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 ).

Noise Reduction

Ultra-low freezers are often located within research and
hospital laboratories or production facilities. Users prefer
close proximity for easy access to valuable stored products.

If operating noise from refrigeration compressors is
excessive, and/or compounded by installation of multiple
freezers in adjacent locations, the working environment is
severely compromised.

SANYO has included advanced noise abatement in all
contemporary ultra-low freezers and noise reduction levels
are well below those of competitive freezers. Data is
available upon request.

Inventory Management

The concept of High Density Storage is enabled by advances
in SANYO Cool Safe
of interior storage space is significantly lower in a SANYO
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
temperature 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 SANYO Cool Safe
design extend to evaporator tubing surrounding the interior
chamber, and the interior chamber is part of the thin-wall
composite based on the patented V.I.P.
panel cabinet, SANYO can offer more usable storage volume
within the same sq.ft. of floor space than competitive models.
