Excellent performance

 

Average Rating 4.7

Application Area:

Hypertension and Vascular research.

Very Sensitive and accurate. The only comments i want to share is, temperature drop very quick when the door is open even for one minutes. The good thing is it revert back too quickly if closed promptly.

Great Freezer

 

Average Rating 5.0

Application Area:

Sample Storage

The TSX series ultra-low -80 freezer is a top-of-the-line freezer that provides excellent performance and features. In my opinion, it is one of the best ultra-low temperature freezers on the market today. One of the most notable features of this freezer is its low noise level. It operates at a noise level of just 48 decibels, which is barely noticeable. This is particularly important in laboratory environments, where noise can be a major distraction. Another great feature of the TSX series freezer is its Wi-Fi connectivity. This allows users to remotely monitor the freezer's performance and temperature from a smartphone or computer. This is particularly useful for researchers who need to monitor their samples around the clock. The TSX series freezer is also incredibly energy-efficient, with a high-quality insulation system that helps maintain a consistent temperature even during power outages. It is also designed to minimize frost buildup, which helps extend the life of the unit. Overall, I would highly recommend the TSX series ultra-low -80 freezer to anyone in need of a high-performance freezer that is both quiet and energy-efficient. Its Wi-Fi connectivity is also a standout feature that makes it a great choice for researchers who need to monitor their samples remotely.

Good freezer with one big problem

 

Average Rating 3.0

Application Area:

Ultralow temperature freezer storage

Bought this -80C freezer from Thermo-Fisher at a deep discount, but soon found out why it was discounted. Over time the temperature reading drops because the sensors inside are faulty and it has to be reset. When I say reset, I mean clear, thawed, and reset. It has happened twice within the first 3 years and now I am very paranoid about opening it at all. The temperature inside is actually fine, but the fan runs constantly and which causes the sensors to warm up more and the alarm goes off constantly. Because it can be reset this way, they don't want to service it, but that is several days of lost work just moving things in and out of freezers, not to mention the risk of freeze/thawing reagents. Two other labs within the same building have the same freezer and the same problem. Other than that, it is a good freezer, so hopefully, they have fixed this issue with newer models.

Our new go to brand! Most energy efficient of its kind

 

Average Rating 5.0

Application Area:

Frozen Sample Storage

I like the option for energy usage by the unit: either a value added energy reduction or a high performance that reduces the amount of condensation/frost buildup at the door. I also like the easy to use signal handle design of the door and the nonlocking inner doors, it allows for quick retrieval and stocking to prevent temperature loss.

Compact -80C that maintains temp well. Too deep for ease of sample retrieval.

 

Average Rating 3.7

Application Area:

Cold storage for samples and reagents

TSX -80C freezer is user friendly. In comparison to older models it has a small footprint. The downside to this being, the freezer is very deep. Samples not placed in a rack system are impossible to see or get to if near the back of the freezer.

Great freezer, but the monitoring system needs serious improvement.

 

Average Rating 4.3

Application Area:

Storage of samples

Remote monitoring system built into the freezer. It is difficult to configure the alarm system. The messages I receive each day overwhelm my mail box.

Quiet, efficient and monitored storage of precious DNA samples for the laboratory!

 

Average Rating 4.3

Application Area:

Protection of DNA for long term storage

The freezer has a wonderful screen on the outside of the door to monitor/chart any drops in temperature. It is also easy to organize with the metal pull-out storage trays that efficiently store multiple samples in an organized fashion. We were pleased that it comes with a lockable door to secure samples if needed.

Safe and reliable, quiet, and efficient.

 

Average Rating 4.3

Application Area:

Store clinical samples at -80C

Easy to use, touchpad interface allows you to control entry and analyze how the freezer has been performing. Very quiet and could be kept in a lab without disturbing researchers.

Very nice freezer with a long warranty on the compressor.

 

Average Rating 4.7

Application Area:

Tissue specimen sample storage

Very big and quiet freezer ultra low freezer. The touchscreen is very easy to use and provides a nice summary of any alerts it encounters (open door, temperature drops, etc..). The freezer is also very quiet and best of has a long 12 year warranty on the v drive compressor.

The ENERGY STAR® certified Thermo Scientific™ TSX Series ultra-low freezers are designed to meet the highest standards in reliability, sustainability, and temperature management. At the heart of the TSX Series is V-drive technology, designed to adapt to user patterns, substantially reducing energy and HVAC (Heating, ventilation, and air conditioning) costs without compromising performance. All TSX Series freezers are manufactured in a zero-waste facility and are built with natural refrigerants and water-blown foam insulation, compliant with the U.S. EPA’s Significant New Alternatives Policy (SNAP), the European Union’s F-Gas compliance and other sustainability standards.


Performance

  • No need to worry about where your samples are stored within the freezer. With peak variation less than 5°C, your samples are protected and safely stored throughout the entire cabinet space
  • Long warm-up time from -50°C to -80°C: 5.05 hours
  • Quiet enough to reside directly in the laboratory, rather than in the hall. At just 45.5 dBA, the TSX Series’ sound level is comparable to a home refrigerator
  • V-drive’s adaptive control is designed to detect usage patterns such as door openings when a higher compressor speed is needed and periods of stability where the compressor runs at a lower speed, saving energy without compromising protection

Sustainability

  • TSX ULT portfolio is ENERGY STAR® certified providing significantly increased energy savings and decreased operational costs
  • Natural refrigerants and water-blown foam insulation, making the TSX Series compliant with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s Significant New Alternatives Policy (SNAP), the European Union’s F-Gas and other sustainability standards
  • Manufactured in an award-winning, zero-waste to landfill facility
  • Lower HVAC costs as a result of less heat emission into the environment

User Friendly

  • Newly re-designed touch-screen user interface with easy-to-use: set-up wizard, event log, temperature mapping and data downloads via a built-in USB port
  • Eliminate the need for a separate chart recorder with the touch-screen’s datalogging and temperature mapping features, all exportable via a built-in USB port
  • Ergonomic design including comfortable door handle, eye-level touch-screen and shelf-level placement that don’t require floor-level loading of racks
  • Four capacities (400, 500, 600 and 700 2-inch box) to accommodate a variety of storage needs and lab footprint specifications
  • Compatible with most racking systems including a full range of Thermo Scientific™ racks for boxes, microplates, Thermo Scientific™ Matrix™ and Nunc CryoBank™ tubes
  • Security features including alarm settings, padlock-compatible doors, and optional access card entry
