Cooling Equipment

Laboratory refrigerators can maintain a temperature from 0°C up to 15°C

The CHL laboratory refrigerator is a specialized device for storing temperature-sensitive samples. The laboratory refrigerator has a cooling system that allows samples to be stored below ambient temperature. Such storage guarantees the physical and chemical stability of the sample.

Laboratory refrigerators/fridges are equipped with highly advanced microprocessor temperature controller Smart or Smart PRO, which maintains the set temperature with high stability and uniformity. The advantage of the above mentioned controller is a large and colourful display and intuitive operation even when wearing latex or nitrile gloves. In laboratory refrigerators/fridges, temperature is the priority, so the compressor is turned on when necessary. Comparatively in refrigerators the compressor turns on with a constant interval, regardless of the temperature in the compartment. POL-EKO laboratory refrigerators have forced air circulation, which has beneficial influence on temperature uniformity inside the device. Two-component polyurethane foam provides perfect insulation of the refrigerator chamber and refrigerants used by POL-EKO are ecological.

The CHL laboratory refrigerators are specialized equipment used, among others, in accredited laboratories for storing temperature-sensitive samples.

Laboratory freezers can freeze and store frozen samples.

Taking care of the quality of our products, in our offer you will not find a two-function device called “laboratory fridge-freezer”. Our refrigerators do not have an integrated freezer inside like home appliances. Our fridge-freezers are two-chamber devices – one chamber is a refrigerator, the other is a freezer. Bearing in mind the concern for device parameters and their functionality, we have created few product categories: laboratory refrigerators, laboratory freezers and ultra-low freezers. Laboratory refrigerators are equipped with a cooling system – they keep the temperature lower than the ambient temperature, however their temperature range doesn’t reach negative values. Usually it is 0-10 or 0-15°C. In the case of our laboratory freezers, the temperature inside the chamber may reach -25/-40°C. The temperature goes even lower in ultra-low freezers – up to even -86°C.

CHL ATEX are specialized laboratory refrigerators designed for the safe storage of chemical samples that may create an explosive atmosphere. They are designed in accordance with the requirements of ATEX Directive 2014/34/EU, for environments classified as Zone 2.

The refrigerator chamber is made explosion-proof and marked as II 3/- G Ex h IIC T6 Gc/-. It features non-sparking components and explosion-proof construction of the Ex h type, compliant with the EN ISO 80079-36 standard, which eliminates potential ignition sources under normal operating conditions.

The chamber construction has been developed to minimize the risk of ignition and explosion, in accordance with the requirements of ATEX Directive 2014/34/EU and the relevant harmonized standards. This is a key element in ensuring safety in explosion-hazardous zones, which – according to ATEX Directive 1999/92/EC – must be defined by the employer in the workplace risk assessment.
