Refurbishment & Testing Process
Every Thermo Scientific Revco UxF40086A63 received by American Instrument Exchange undergoes a comprehensive inspection before shipment. Our technicians verify temperature accuracy using calibrated monitoring equipment, inspect the cascade refrigeration system, touchscreen controller, compressors, alarm functions, data logging capabilities, door seals, insulation, and overall cabinet integrity. Each freezer is thoroughly cleaned, performance tested, and verified to maintain manufacturer temperature specifications before shipment.
The UxF40086A63 ships by freight from American Instrument Exchange. Before installation, verify that a dedicated 120V, 20A electrical circuit is available and provide adequate ventilation around the cabinet. Allow the freezer to reach operating temperature before loading valuable samples. Organizing inventory with compatible storage racks and minimizing door-open times will maximize temperature stability and preserve sample integrity.
