ARPEGE 70 — Reliable cryogenic solution for laboratories
The ARPEGE 70 is a cryogenic container designed to meet the requirements of laboratories for the storage of biological samples in liquid nitrogen. Its useful capacity of 72 litres allows for liquid-phase storage, ensuring a constant temperature and optimal safety for sensitive samples. With a static autonomy of 103 days and a daily evaporation rate of only 0.7 litres, it offers an economical and efficient solution for professional environments. Made of aluminium, it combines robustness and lightness, making it easy to handle while ensuring excellent resistance to thermal shocks. Its compact dimensions allow for easy integration into laboratories, with a height of 921 mm, a width of 586 mm and a depth of 673 mm. The empty weight is 48 kg and reaches 90 kg when full.
The storage system is flexible, allowing the use of racks or canisters as required. It can hold up to 14,960 0.25 ml tubes, 5,440 0.5 ml tubes, 2,000 2 ml tubes, 972 5 ml tubes, 132 25 ml bags and 4,760 CBS straws. This modularity allows it to be adapted to the different sample formats used in biology, research or medical laboratories.
Enhanced traceability and security with CryoMemo
The ARPEGE 70 can be equipped with the CryoMemo system, a state-of-the-art technology that ensures complete temperature traceability and monitoring of storage conditions. This system is particularly useful for laboratories handling sensitive biological products that require rigorous control. Several configurations are available, including the INITIAL, ESSENTIAL and ESSENTIAL+ versions, the latter incorporating degassing and automatic filling functions. These options allow the container to be adapted to the specific requirements of each user while ensuring maximum safety.
The CryoMemo offers an intuitive interface and continuous monitoring, ensuring that samples are stored in optimal conditions. It also generates temperature and alert reports, reinforcing compliance with quality and safety standards. By integrating this technology, the ARPEGE 70 becomes an intelligent storage tool, ideal for regulated environments or demanding research protocols.
Performance, compliance and versatility
The ARPEGE 70 is certified as a Class IIa medical device, with GMDN code 16534, ensuring its compliance with European safety and quality standards. Its aluminium design ensures exceptional durability while facilitating transport and installation. The 215 mm neck diameter allows for easy handling of racks and canisters, optimising access to samples.
This cryogenic container is particularly suitable for biology laboratories, research centres, medical establishments and cell banks. Its high storage capacity, low evaporation and extended autonomy make it a reliable solution for long-term storage needs. Combining technical performance, enhanced safety and modularity, the ARPEGE 70 is the strategic choice for demanding professionals.
