Product Details

CoolBox Ice-Free Cooling Workstation systems are bench top cooling workstations that provide sample cooling or freezing without ice, electricity or batteries. Ice-Free Cooling Workstation systems are versatile and accommodate a variety of sample formats and temperatures. The modular design enables the use of CoolRack thermoconductive sample modules to hold microfuge tubes, cryogenic vials, PCR tubes or plates, and more.

Key Features

Secure Sample Preparation
  • Operates without ice, batteries or electricity
  • Keeps samples cold at a uniform 0.5 to 4.0°C for up to 16 hours
  • Keeps samples frozen (<0°C) for up to 8 hours
  • The built-in 1-8ºC temperature indicator provides visual assurance of operational temperature while working
Broad compatibility
  • Versatile: accommodates most CoolRack modules
  • Small footprint ideal for use in the hood especially in keeping temperature sensitive solutions cold
  • To extend the cooling/freezing duration, keep an additional Cooling/Freezing Core in the freezer and replace the cartridge as needed
How it Works: Ease of Use
  • Freeze the Cooling/Freezing Core in -20°C freezer
  • Place frozen core in base/holder
  • Rest CoolRack module on cartridge
  • Module will equilibrate and maintain temperature via thermo-conductivity
  • To extend the cooling/freezing duration, keep an additional Cooling/Freezing Core in the freezer and replace the core as needed
  • Dry ice may be used in place of the cores to create a compact snap freezing workstation
