Innovative solutions for controlled sample freezing and thawing

SPL Guard Arizona

The SPL Guard Arizona is a high-speed thawing station designed for the uniform and controlled thawing of frozen samples. Using only ambient air, the system can thaw a complete SBS-format rack from -80°C to 5°C in approximately six minutes.

 

The built-in temperature monitoring system continuously tracks the thawing process and automatically stops when the target temperature is reached, ensuring consistency and preventing over-thawing. A clear display and audible notification provide users with complete control and confidence throughout the process.

SPL Guard Florida

The SPL Guard Florida is designed for laboratories processing larger sample volumes. Capable of thawing up to 10 SBS-format racks simultaneously, the Florida delivers fast and consistent thawing while maintaining sample integrity.

 

Suitable for both standalone operation and integration with automated liquid-handling systems, the Florida provides a scalable solution for biobanks, high-throughput laboratories, and research facilities. Advanced airflow technology ensures even temperature distribution across all samples, significantly reducing thawing variability compared to conventional methods.
