Ultra-Low Temperature Medical Cooling

Secop’s new dedicated range of compressors for ultra-low temperatures is optimized to safely store, transport, and handle highly sensitive substances including pharmaceuticals, vaccines, cells, genes, blood, etc. The reliability of cooling equipment is essential to ensure the quality and usability of stored assets.

Compressors Selected for Medical Cold Chain Solutions

Secop’s new medical compressors range now provides a solution with several benefits such as enhanced robustness, ultra-low temperature technology, and compatibility with the refrigerants propane (R290) and ethane (R170). This makes them the ideal solution for hospitals, laboratories, pharmacies, research centers, universities, and the medical industry.

The medical and vaccine cold chain requires storage and transport at different temperature levels: +2°C to +8°C, -20°C down to -86°C. Stability is key to guarantee safe product delivery up to the last mile temperature.

Our compressor and electronic control solutions are installed in different applications which are certified for WHO (World Health Organization) installations.

ULT Medical Cooling Mobile Battery-Driven Compressors

Secop has developed the technology for an ultra-low temperature cooling system. This system is optimized for the last mile of distribution for the new generations of vaccines and offers mobile operation even in high ambient conditions such as in tropical regions.

This solution with a MP2UVULTM compressor takes advantage of Secop’s experience in medical applications, vaccine solar freezers, and mobile solutions and combines all of these areas of use.

Battery-driven active cooling systems for mRNA-based vaccines provide a number of advantages compared to existing passive cooling (dry ice) transport boxes. Active systems offer temperature control, do not need huge quantities of dry ice, are re-usable, do not waste tons of CO2, and prevent wasting vaccine.

They are suitable for any distribution point, including in remote areas where the availability of CO2 cannot be guaranteed or ambient conditions are severe.

ULT Medical Cooling Variable-Speed Compressors

Secop has developed new electronic controlled compressors for medical applications. Significantly more efficient and with additional features for the next generation of medical cold chain cabinets. Ultra-low temperature systems require reliable environmentally friendly solutions.

Secop’s dedicated range of electronically controlled compressors meet these requirements by using green low GWP hydrocarbon refrigerants and electronic control for low energy consumption.

NM13UVULTM and MS18UVULTM medical variable-speed compressors come with innovative modular multi-voltage controllers featuring speed control through Adaptive Energy Optimization (AEO), frequency signal, or serial communication. These multi-voltage controller can be used for all voltages and frequencies globally. The new MP controllers features improved robustness and safety: fire-proof IP54 housing, PCB coating, galvanic isolated I/Os, and SW safety layers.

The perfect choice for ULT systems with minimal energy consumption and maximum robustness. Secop’s latest generation of innovative, green efficient compressors are a significant contribution to securing the ULT medical cold chain network supply.
