Key Features
- Dual-zone design: 2°C–8°C refrigerator compartment above and -10°C to -40°C freezer below
- Two independent refrigerant systems for accurate, cross-independent temperature control
- Refrigerator uses forced-air cooling; freezer uses direct cooling for optimum efficiency
- Dual compressors ensure fast cooling, energy savings, and long operational life
- High-precision microprocessor control with LED display and 0.1°C resolution
- CFC-free and HCFC-free environmentally friendly refrigerant
- Powder-coated steel exterior with 50 mm insulation (fridge) and 100 mm insulation (freezer)
- Door lock prevents unauthorised access to stored specimens
- Low-noise design for comfortable laboratory working environments
- Refrigerator section has adjustable shelves; freezer section has fixed integrated evaporator shelves with ABS drawers
- Dual alarm system with visual and audible alerts for out-of-range temperatures

FAQ
Q: What temperature ranges does the MRF-350 maintain?
A: The refrigerator compartment maintains 2°C to 8°C and the freezer compartment maintains -10°C to -40°C, each controlled by independent refrigerant systems
Q: Can the two compartments be controlled independently?
A: Yes. The refrigerator and freezer zones each have their own compressor and refrigerant circuit, allowing independent temperature management without cross-interference
Q: Is this unit suitable for storing biological samples and vaccines simultaneously?
A: Yes. The refrigerator zone is ideal for vaccines and temperature-sensitive reagents at 2°C–8°C, while the freezer zone preserves biological samples requiring sub-zero storage down to -40°C

Frequently Asked Questions
How does the increased capacity benefit a busy research lab?
The MRF-350 offers 185 L of refrigeration and 183 L of freezing space, allowing larger labs to store diverse samples without frequent restocking or use of multiple units.
Is the 2°C–8°C compartment suitable for all biologicals?
Yes, this temperature range is the standard for preserving vaccines, blood products, sera, and many diagnostics; freezing would damage these materials, so the dual-zone design prevents this problem.
What advantage do two independent systems provide during peak research periods?
If one system requires maintenance or cleaning, the other compartment continues operating independently, minimizing disruption to ongoing research and sample storage.
Which lab environments benefit most from this unit's size?
Medical schools, regional hospital networks, research institutes, and pharmaceutical quality control labs find the MRF-350 ideal for consolidated specimen management.
How should I arrange samples within the unit to avoid contamination?
Best practice is to store different sample types in separate compartments or dedicated shelves; contact Procure.ae or the manufacturer for guidance on segregation protocols specific to your specimens.
Does temperature uniformity matter across all shelves?
Yes, uniform temperature is critical for specimen integrity; the MRF-350 is engineered to maintain consistent conditions throughout each compartment, though you should verify placement away from door vents.
