The Bright Clini Rapid Freeze Unit is a small, free standing, top opening, and ultra low temperature freezer. Its function is to rapidly freeze tissue specimens ready for cryotomy or for storage. Inside the Clini Rapid Freeze Unit are two cylindrical chambers. The upper chamber is held at -40°C and the lower at -80°C. An energy saving 7 day timer function allows reduced power consumption in out-of-working hours. The Clini Rapid Freeze Unit is the safe alternative to snap-freezing in Liquid Nitrogen, removing the hazards of cryogenic handling.
The lower chamber can be filled with 3M’s Novec HFE-7100, into which specimens can be immersed. Alternatively, an aluminium block can be incorporated into which a specimen holder or chuck can be fitted. The upper chamber is used as a short term storage area for specimens after they have been initially frozen in the lower chamber.

A seven day timer is fitted to the Clini-RF so that during out-of-work hours when not in use it can be run in energy saving standby mode with both the upper and lower chambers running at -40°C, thus saving power. At the start of the working day it is automatically switched to its normal operating mode and the lower chamber brought down to -80°C.
