Description
UltraChill 2 Cu Ft -86°C Undercounter Ultra-Low Freezer – Digital Display
The UltraChill 2 Cu Ft -86°C Undercounter Ultra-Low Freezer is a compact ULT freezer designed for long-term cold storage of biological samples, laboratory materials, and temperature-sensitive products. Its undercounter footprint makes it ideal for labs, hospitals, research facilities, blood banks, and production environments where reliable ultra-low temperature storage is needed without taking up full-size floor space.
Built with an auto-cascade refrigeration system, mixed refrigerant cooling, a microprocessor temperature controller, and a large digital LED display, this mini ULT freezer provides dependable performance from -40°C to -86°C. Advanced VIP insulation, multi-layer sealing, and stainless steel interior construction help improve temperature stability, reduce heat loss, and support energy-efficient operation.
The UltraChill 2 Cu Ft -86°C Undercounter Ultra-Low Freezer – Digital Display includes multiple audible and visual alarms for high/low temperature, power failure, abnormal voltage, sensor error, door ajar, low battery, condenser clean alerts, and more, helping protect valuable samples during daily lab use.

Frequently asked questions
Will it actually fit under a standard bench?+
The cabinet is 35.59 in wide, 31.42 in deep and 29.45 in high. Check the height against your bench underside and the depth against your bench overhang, and allow the manufacturer's clearance for the condenser — an undercounter ULT rejecting heat into an enclosed knee space will struggle. Universal castors are fitted.
How much does it hold?+
58 litres (2.0 cu ft), configured as 2 racks in a 6×2 layout taking 24 two-inch boxes — approximately 2,400 samples at 2 ml. Interior dimensions are 12.99 × 17.83 × 16.14 in.
Does a cabinet this small still have the full alarm set?+
Yes. High and low temperature, power failure, abnormal voltage, sensor error, door ajar, filter screen check, thermostat failure, low battery, condenser clean and high ambient temperature, with 72 hours of alarm backup. It also has a USB interface and remote alarm access over RS485, so it can be wired into a central monitoring system.
What insulation does it use, and why does that matter here?+
PURF plus VIP — vacuum insulation panels. VIP achieves a given thermal resistance in a much thinner wall than foam alone, which is what allows a 58-litre chamber inside a 35.59 × 31.42 × 29.45 in cabinet. It also means the wall thickness cannot be recovered if a panel is punctured, so handle the cabinet carefully during installation.
What power supply does it need?+
110 V, 60 Hz, 336 W, 3 A, with a stated consumption of 5.3 kWh per 24 hours and 50 dB of noise. Permissible ambient is 10 to 32 °C. Net weight is 208 lb with a gross shipping weight of 282 lb.
What is the difference between this and the 2 cu ft upright?+
Same 58-litre capacity, same 24-box configuration, same auto-cascade refrigeration. The difference is form factor: this undercounter model is 29.45 in high and 35.59 in wide, while the upright is 48 in high and 25 in wide. Choose on the space you have, not on capacity.
