Product catalog summary
Overview: FARRAR® has developed the Ultra-Low Chamber series (ULC-190, ULC-259, and ULC-328) to provide advanced forced air convection cooling solutions for the preservation and storage of biological and human tissue donor samples. These chambers are designed for life science applications, offering temperature ranges from +2°C to +8°C and -20°C to -80°C.
Key Features:
  • Forced air, ultra-low-temperature freezers with rapid and efficient cooling.
  • Storage capacities range from 190 cu. ft. (5,380 liters) to 328 cu. ft. (9,288 liters).
  • Optimized footprint requiring only 47 sq. ft. (4.36 m2) of space.
  • Temperature uniformity of +/-3.0°C and low deviation of +/-1°C.
  • Fully redundant systems for control, refrigeration, and airflow.
  • Low energy consumption with ENERGY STAR® certification.
Applications: These chambers are suitable for pharmaceutical, biopharmaceutical, biorepository, and bio-logistics applications. They are designed to accommodate universal product containers and offer configurable options for racks, carts, boxes, and pallets.
Technical Specifications:
  • Ambient operating temperature: +18°C to +30°C.
  • Electrical requirements: North America - 208-230VAC, Single Phase, 60Hz; International - 230VAC, Single Phase, 50Hz.
  • Temperature control with microprocessor and LCD displays.
  • Communication protocol: Modbus TCP/IP with standard dry contacts for alarms.
Customer Benefits:
  • Fastest temperature recovery from door opening.
  • HMI touchscreen for visual temperature profile progress.
  • Plug-and-play installation with international availability.
  • Ergonomically engineered for high-density storage and easy access.
Additional Services & Options: Warranty options, validation IQ/OQ, temperature mapping studies, shelving systems, and custom programming are available.

Ultra-Low Chamber (ULC) Series Technical Data Sheet-1

PURPOSE-BUILT FOR BIOPHARMA AND PHARMACEUTICAL MANUFACTURING Commercial bulk storage with integrated redundancy, fast temperature recovery, and optimized material handling FARRAR® pioneered forced air convection cooling to answer the challenge of preserving and storing biological and human tissue donor samples and materials. Purpose-built for life science applications, the Ultra-Low Chamber ULC-190, new ULC-259, and ULC-328 are the only +2°C to +8°C and -20°C to -80°C, forced air, ultra-low-temperature freezers on the market. Ideal for bulk commercial short and long-term needs, these innovative chambers offer rapid, efficient, and more sustainable product cool-down and accommodate universal product containers (all sizes—bags, bottles, boxes, etc. of pharmaceutical packaging). With 190 cu. ft. / 5,380 liters up to 328 cu. ft. / 9,288 liters of storage, these solutions help optimize footprint requiring only 47 sq. ft. / 4.36 m2 of space. At +/-3.0°C, the units feature unmatched uniformity, offer fully redundant systems (control, refrigeration, airflow), and provide the fastest temperature recovery from door opening versus competitor offerings. Designed with energy balance in mind, the ULC is a smart storage solution that offers dynamic refrigeration control and low energy consumption (ULC-190 = 0.3 kWh/cu. ft., ULC-259 = 0.25 kWh/cu. ft.). • Optimized footprint • Optional racking/shelving system available • Optional material handling carts available • Integrated full redundancy (refrigeration, controls, electrical) • Best temperature uniformity on the market (+/- 3.0°C) • Low temperature deviation (+/- 1°C) • Wide-range (+2°C to +8°C and -20°C to -80°C) forced air convectio
