Why choose the FARRAR CYCLONE?
The FARRAR CYCLONE ultra-low temperature freezer unit is designed with a strong focus on life sciences, ensuring exceptional performance. This innovative unit combines ultra-low energy consumption with outstanding cooling capabilities.
As the industry's first forced-air convection freezer and storage chamber, the FARRAR CYCLONE is built for frequent access to stored materials (more than twice per day) while maintaining temperature stability to protect high-value items. The CYCLONE balances sustainability and efficiency with high performance, making it an ideal choice for sensitive materials, especially those involved in pharmaceutical storage.
Unparalleled Cooling Power & Performance
The FARRAR® CYCLONE™ freezer combines sustainability and compliance with advanced cooling power, delivering performance that sets it apart from traditional ultra-low temperature freezer units. With exceptional pull-down, fast door-opening recovery, and unmatched temperature uniformity, CYCLONE offers features that are unheard of in conventional cold wall freezers and standard ULT freezers. Its forced-air convection technology ensures consistent temperature control across the chamber, even during frequent access.
