Performance Data
SAFETY
• Alarm lamp and buzzer offer secure
warning of power failure or abnormal 
temperature increase.
• High and low temperature warning
provides an audible and visual alarm 
when the temperature deviates more 
than 
±5˚C to ±20˚C (adjustable) from the
set point.
• Alarm ring-back function ensures that
buzzer will resume operation, should 
alarm conditions continue after it is 
silenced.
• Microprocessor-controlled filter-clog
check function protects the refrigeration 
circuit.
• The rugged, one-handed outer door latch
has a hole to allow a padlock to securely 
protect valuable samples.
• Control panel with digital
display for easy opera-
tion.
ACCESSIBILITY
• A beak style inner
door latch tightly 
closes the inner door 
against the freezer 
frame. It also helps make opening and 
closing the door smoother.
• The condenser filter is situated at the
bottom right side of the front panel to 
make filter removal and cleaning easier.
RELIABILITY
• Status Alert (Condition monitor)
Monitors ambient and system conditions 
continuously and notifies of any abnor-
malities before a problem happens.
EVOLUTIONARY DESIGN
• SANYO V.I.P.™ Evolution Series -86˚C
ultra-low temperature freezers use 
patented revolutionary vacuum insulation 
cabinet construction that reduces the 
wall thickness from 14cm to 7cm (5.5” 
to 2.7”) and achieves up to 30% more 
storage capacity than a conventionally 
insulated freezer without increasing the 
footprint.
• The newly developed refrigeration
system and the freezer structure offer a 
quiet experimental environment.
• Achieves 10% higher energy conserva-
tion than previous model. (For model 
rated 220V, 50Hz)
• The newly developed back cover
combined with new aerodynamically 
designed and placed components in the 
refrigeration compartment provide supe-
rior air flow, making it possible to drasti-
cally reduce the stress on the freezer 
and contributing to excellent durability.
• Two independent and insulated inner
doors with gaskets prevent cold air leak-
age.

•Appearance and specifications are subject to change without notice.
*Cooling performance is indicated by the temperature reached at
the center of the freezer (at ambient temperature of 30
°C with no
load). In order to use the freezer at a stable temperature for a long 
time, it is recommended that the temperature be set to at least 
5
°C higher than the indicated lowest temperature.
In addition, depending on the usage conditions, it may not be 
possible to reach the indicated lowest temperature.
