Why would a large hospital or research institute choose the MRF-450A?

The 519 L combined capacity with 315 L refrigeration and 204 L freezing enables centralized biobank operations, reducing space footprint and simplifying specimen logistics across multiple departments.

How does independent refrigerant system design protect my samples?

Each compartment operates with its own system, so a refrigerant leak or compressor issue in one section will not affect the other, preserving temperature-critical specimens during repair.

Is the -40°C freezer section suitable for all long-term storage needs?

Yes, -40°C is ideal for DNA, RNA, plasma, and tissue samples requiring multi-year preservation; ultra-low needs below -40°C require separate -70°C or -80°C units.

What kind of facility would benefit from this unit's scale?

Regional diagnostic labs, biorepositories, pharmaceutical R&D centers, and large hospital pathology departments managing extensive sample archives are typical users.

How should we plan for future capacity growth?

While the MRF-450A offers substantial storage, large facilities can discuss phased capacity planning with Procure.ae to determine when a second unit or additional freezer may be needed.

What quality assurance checks ensure temperature stability?

Contact Procure.ae for information on internal temperature sensors, calibration procedures, and periodic validation protocols to maintain compliance with sample storage standards.

How is the MRF-450A typically transported and installed?

Large units require professional logistics and installation; Procure.ae coordinates delivery, unboxing, positioning, levelling, and initial setup with your facility team.

What is the lead time for the MRF-450A across the GCC?

Procure.ae supplies this capacity unit on a request-a-quote basis across the UAE and wider GCC; contact the team with your facility location to confirm availability and timeline.

What defines the MRF-450A specification?

The unit combines 315 L refrigeration (2°C–8°C) with 204 L freezing (-40°C) in a 519 L cabinet using two independent refrigerant systems for reliable specimen preservation.

What operational documentation is provided?

Contact Procure.ae to confirm the inclusion of user manuals, maintenance schedules, parts diagrams, and warranty documentation with your purchase.

Are extended service contracts available?

Procure.ae can discuss preventive maintenance plans, spare-parts kits, and emergency repair support tailored to biobank and laboratory environments.

Antech MRF-450A 519 L Lab Combined Refrigerator-Freezer

Name: Antech MRF-450A 519 L Lab Combined Refrigerator-Freezer
Brand: ANTECH
SKU: MRF-450A

The Antech MRF-450A 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-450A 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.

FAQ

Q: What temperature ranges does the MRF-450A 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
