The Pirbright Institute is a world leading centre of excellence in research and surveillance of animal viruses and zoonotic diseases. First established 100 years ago, as a cattle testing station to combat Tuberculosis, it now plays a vital role in the investigation and control of animal diseases with serious economic and public health implications. As the only specialist animal pathogen facility in the United Kingdom (UK), its work is critical both nationally and internationally. With the importance of its work and specialist expertise growing daily, the Institute is undergoing a major...

valuable biological samples securely. Two independent refrigeration systems provide a reliable -86°C ultra-low temperature storage environment. Should an unexpected failure occur in one cooling circuit, the other maintains the freezer in the -70°C range until service can be arranged. “We were particularly impressed with Panasonic’s Dual Cooling System and it was the biggest factor in our purchasing decision,” added Miriam. “It is imperative that our samples are safely stored. We hold the world reference collections of some biological materials. We would have an extremely limited amount of...

The Panasonic Dual Cooling freezers have saved space. They are taller and have a bigger internal capacity that enables us to fit more samples in. maintaining the highest levels of performance. The facility is effectively staffed 24-hours a day. In addition, the staff present range in a variety of specialisms and work patterns. Security was a specific issue for the Institute, due to its workflows and the volumes and pathogenic nature of samples. Smooth installation One important challenge that the Institute experienced in equipping the new high containment laboratory was connected to the...

Panasonic Dual Cool Freezers The industry’s safest ultra-low Ultimate security is critical for extremely valuable samples, such as those in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology sector, research institutes or blood and tissue banks. Freezer failure requires swift, effective action to transfer precious samples to a safe, ultra-low temperature environment – often within a matter of hours, even if a failure occurs at night. Any failure, therefore, significantly increases the risk of losing a unique, irreplaceable or potentially life-saving collection of samples. This could halt promising...

temperature storage solution cooling fans of the two systems operate separately from each other. Two efficient evaporator circuits surround the interior chamber in a strategically-designed arrangement to ensure the highest levels of temperature uniformity with either one or both of the refrigeration systems functioning. Unparalleled performance Dual Cooling technology differs significantly from conventional cascade refrigeration technology in fundamental design and operation. In Dual Cool systems, two independent refrigeration systems provide a reliable -86ºC ultra-low temperature...

-86ºC Dual Cool Refrigeration Technology Two independent refrigeration systems operate together or individually, depending on loading and operating conditions. If one refrigeration system fails, the other can maintain the freezer in the -70ºC range. Two independent refrigeration systems running in overlapping cycles. ECO mode optimises run time and minimises energy costs whilst maintaining optimal performance. Filterless Condenser Design Transfers energy from the refrigeration system with minimal heat output. Maintains optimum condenser air flow and eliminates the need for an air filter, as...

Panasonic developed the MCO-170AIC CO2 incubator series in response to customer requests. The starting point for Panasonic’s Design Engineers was to develop an incubator with an interior that was much easier to clean³, but the resultant product takes ease-of-use to a new dimension. The MCO-170AIC CO2 incubators, which replace the Panasonic’s MCO-19AIC CO2 incubator series, provide exceptional productivity and performance. First introduced in Europe in May 2014, the MCO-170AIC CO2 incubators include three models that share core technology and specifications, with various special features as...
