[**Blue**View](https://blog.helmerinc.com) - Helmer Scientific Expands Voltages for High-Performance Auto-Defrost Freezer Line # Helmer Scientific Expands Voltages for High-Performance Auto-Defrost Freezer Line Posted on Nov 08, 2016 by Colleen Holtkamp ![Medical grade laboratory freezer](https://blog.helmerinc.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Blog/2016/lab-freezer.jpg?width=694&name=lab-freezer.jpg "Medical grade laboratory freezer") Helmer Scientific, a leading supplier of cold storage and processing equipment, has announced that their -30ºC Laboratory and Plasma Freezer line is now available in a 115 volt electrical configuration. The new configuration is in addition to the existing 208/230 volt configuration. Auto-defrost freezers from Helmer Scientific offer exceptional uniformity during defrost cycles as well as normal operation. Now this type of freezer performance is available in both upright and undercounter models for facilities that prefer using 115 volt power outlets. Helmer Scientific's cold storage equipment is designed to meet the demands required in clinical laboratory and pharmacy settings, and helps ensure the integrity and safety of life-saving blood therapies, medications, vaccines, reagents, and patient samples. “Our -30ºC freezers deliver high levels of performance to safeguard our customers’ most critical products,” stated Ben Greenfield, Director of Marketing. “Helmer -30ºC freezers maintain very tight temperature control during auto-defrost cycles, and will recover temperatures very quickly after routine door openings. We are pleased that our complete line of -30ºC freezers is now available in a 115 volt configuration.” The freezers are available in both the i.Series® and Horizon Series™ lines. Sizes include undercounter models (4- and 5- cubic feet) and upright models (20- and 25- cubic feet). i.Series® models provide software features designed to improve staff efficiency and patient safety. The i.C3® Information Center is a door-mounted user interface with a full-color touchscreen. It provides precise temperature control, constant temperature monitoring, and multiple information logs that can be downloaded. Horizon Series™ models offer a temperature controller with built-in alarm. Both lines feature Min/Max temperature tracking, programmable automatic defrost, and custom storage options. The new 115 volt Laboratory and Plasma Freezers are part of the Helmer Scientific portfolio of medical-grade cold storage solutions. The 115 volt freezers are now available for order.
