Integrated Solutions for Biological Safety, Security,
Performance and Energy Savings
Panasonic VIP
®
ultra-low freezers represent the industry’s most complete combination of refrigeration, control, alarm, monitoring and
accessibility for product safety at -86°C. Ideal for material storage in repositories, hospitals, clinics and medical research facilities, the VIP
®
Series is designed to reduce energy consumption.

Series ULT Freezers
Panasonic VIP

Series -86ºC ultra-low
temperature freezers maintain internal
temperatures as low as -86°C (-123°F).
All models use Panasonic uniquely
designed compressors for ultra-low
temperature applications. Manufactured
with high density vacuum insulation
panels in conjunction with foamed-in-
place insulation, they are ideally suited
for use in laboratories and hospitals for
long-term preservation, specimens and
components, as well as materials test-
ing. Whatever your preservation needs
are, Panasonic provides the right equip-
ment for the right application. Panasonic
preservation systems employ advanced
technology to insure a high precision
temperature environment.
Enhanced Performance, Energy
Efciency, and Reliability
Panasonic VIP
®
Series upright freezers
represent the industry’s most advanced
combination of cabinet design, electron-
ics, refrigeration and critical components
for enhanced security, better perfor-
mance, product safety and cost effective
operation at -86°C.
• The newly developed energy ef-
cient refrigeration system and sound
abatement feature minimizes intrusive
operating noise.
• The newly developed refrigeration
system combined with strategically
designed and placed components in
the refrigeration compartment provide
superior air ow to drastically reduce
the stress to the freezer and contribut-
ing to excellent durability.
• Two independent and insulated in-
ner doors ensure maximum interior
chamber uniformity at all points in
the chamber.
Panasonic Heat Exchanger Design
Increases Energy Efciency
1
Every traditional ultra-low freezer design
utilizes a heat exchanger. By increasing
the efficiency of the heat exchanger
through an improved new design incor-
porating more surface area contact at
critical points in the refrigeration system,
we are able to improve the overall ef-
ficiency and reduce compressor running
time. This along with other improve-
ments to heat exchanger in the refrigera-
tion system translates to a substantial
increase in energy efficiency.

Panasonic Refrigeration Delivers
Uniform Temperature
The Panasonic cascade refrigeration sys-
tem uses Panasonic designed compres-
sors specic to ultra-low applications for
high-performance, reliability and peace of
mind. Refrigeration components are care-
fully selected and matched for optimum
operation under demanding laboratory
environments.
• Increased cooling capacity improves
temperature recovery after door
openings.
• Quieter operation is achieved through
condenser fan blade design, noise
abatement insulation, anti-vibration
mounts and internal compressor noise
abatement.
• Voltage boost and surge protection
devices permit dependable operation
over wider power ranges and environ-
mental conditions.

Combination of multiple high-performance
vacuum panels with newly developed
high-density foam insulation achieves
thin-wall profile for maximum interior
volume in a compact footprint. Increased
cooling capacity improves temperature
recovery after door openings.
Inner Doors Improve Uniformity
Easy-In/Easy-Out Panasonic ‘Eagle Beak’
inner door latches feature ergonomic
design to seal firmly against the cabinet
with one hand. High-strength, sealing, in-
sulated inner doors help minimize change
in interior temperatures during routine
door openings.
Microprocessor
Comprehensive setpoint, alarm, moni-
toring and diagnostic functions super-
vised by Panasonic-built microprocessor
controller with digital display of all input/
output functions.
