Antech MRF-450 519 L Lab Combined Refrigerator-Freezer
The Antech MRF-450 Combined Refrigerator-Freezer offers 315 L of 2°C–8°C refrigeration and 204 L of -40°C freezing in a single cabinet, with two independent refrigerant systems for accurate specimen preservation.Overview
The Antech MRF-450 Combined Refrigerator-Freezer provides two independently controlled cold-storage zones in a single cabinet: a 315 L refrigerator compartment at 2°C–8°C and a 204 L freezer compartment reaching down to -40°C. Two dedicated refrigerant systems and compressors ensure precise, stable temperatures in each zone, making this unit a space-efficient solution for laboratories, hospitals, and research centres that need both cold and deep-freeze storage in one footprint.
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-450 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
Is the MRF-450 suitable for a multi-lab research facility?
Yes, with 315 L of refrigeration and 204 L of freezing, it serves centralized specimen banks, large university labs, and hospital networks managing hundreds of samples across departments.
How does larger freezer capacity improve operations?
The 204 L freezer allows extended archival of long-term samples (DNA, serum, tissue), reducing reliance on multiple standalone freezers and simplifying sample tracking.
What types of specimens benefit most from the 315 L fridge section?
Vaccines, diagnostic reagents, blood products, and cell cultures that require consistent 2°C–8°C storage all thrive in the large refrigerated compartment with stable temperature control.
Can the MRF-450 support automated sample management systems?
Contact Procure.ae to confirm compatibility with laboratory information systems, barcode readers, or robotic sample handlers that may integrate with this unit.
How much floor space does the MRF-450 require?
Contact Procure.ae for exact dimensions and footprint, including ventilation clearance and door-swing space, to ensure proper lab layout planning.
What redundancy features help protect against specimen loss?
The two independent refrigerant systems and large capacity mean that minor component failures do not jeopardize the entire sample collection; contact Procure.ae about backup systems and alarms.
