Introducing the Shuttle™ -86°C Portable ULT Freezer

 
The Shuttle™ is a portable -86°C ultra low freezer developed for personal or mobile applications. It delivers reliable, energy-efficient storage for cold-chain management, short-term or long-term ultra low storage and secure mobile transport of high-value vaccines or biological specimens.
The Shuttle™ is ideal for use within biorepositories, in medical/surgical suites, pathology laboratories, tissue banks, regenerative medicine, and in other applications associated with clinical or diagnostic medicine, medical research and pharmaceutical distribution.
Ideal for personal use or field applications on land, sea or in the air.

 

Benefits

The Shuttle™ portable -86°C freezer supplies ultracold temperature through the use of a proprietary free-piston Stirling engine technology that uses a micro-fluid cooling media to eliminate conventional refrigeration or cascade compressor systems.

  • - The Shuttle™ is lightweight and easily transported, designed to operate on both AC and DC power at both 60Hz and 50Hz electrical systems.
  • - Quiet and energy-efficient (150 watts maximum) it can be placed on a desktop, lab bench or cart in laboratories or operating rooms, and is easily transferred to vehicles, aircraft, remote and disaster locations.
  • - The Shuttle™ operates independently for up to two hours when connected to an optional uninterruptible power supply (UPS), and can operate from a standard car or truck battery supply through the vehicle DC power adapter supplied with the unit.
  • - The Shuttle™ is expected to be used in rural or third-world countries where power and dry-ice infrastructure is not well established.
  • - Because the Shuttle™ establishes highly uniform temperature without the use of dry ice, it sustains viability and portal-to-portal cold chain custody; when used with an optional temperature logging flash device the Shuttle™ helps assure FDA21CFR compliance for managing local, regional or worldwide pharmaceutical distribution in clinical trials.

Other uses include:

  • - Pharmaceutical distribution, drug trials, cold chain management
  • - Clinical outreach, pick-up and delivery, remote or satellite facility restocking
  • - Blood and tissue banking
  • - Biorepository collection, aggregation, internal transport and frozen specimen continuity
  • - Surgical centers and operating suites performing autologous or regenerative medicine
  • - Veterinary medicine, breeding, semen and ova storage and transport
  • - Regional cancer center pathology collection and transport from outlying hospitals
  • - Short-term, small volume back-up storage
  • - Personal, high-value specimen storage
  • - Geological and archeological specimen transport and storage
  • - USDA and FDA mandated ultra low temperature treatment of raw fish for sushi
