ASKION C-line® hermetic storage

:

    The product family ASKION C-line® hermetic storage HS200 offers semi and fully automated cryo storage systems at temperatures from -150°C down to -190°C. The storage takes place in the gas phase of liquid nitrogen. The cryogenic storage in connection with the sample handling temperature of -100°C ensure a maximum sample quality for decades.

    Depending on the need of storage capacity, three different models of the HS200 can be selected: 

    HS200 S (approx. 50,000 & 0.5 ml vials) 
    HS200 M (approx. 200,000 & 0.5 ml vials) 
    HS200 L (approx. 500,000 & 0.5 ml vials) 

    The modularity and automation option of the ASKION C-line® hermetic storage allow biobank solutions beginning from semi automated single storage systems up to fully automated biobanks consisting of several storage systems. The HS200 S, M and L are fully compatible among each other and can be connected using an external rail system. 

    The documentation of all relevant system parameters as well as the complete sample management are done using the software solution ASKION C-line® control. 

    ASKION C-line® hermetic storage S

    The ASKION C-line® hermetic storage HS200 S is the perfect module for entering the sector of high quality biobanking. The HS200 S is the optimal solution for cryo storage of cell lines or cell preparations due to its sample capacity of up to 50,000 vials, the semi automated sample handling and freely configurable sample formats (beginning from straws and vials with a work volume of 0.2 to 8.0 ml to tissue cassettes or blood bags with a volume up to 150 ml). 


    A fully automated sample handling is possible by using a Pick-and-Place-Robot that can be upgraded at any time (internal automation). Several HS200 S can be connected to each other using an external rail system (external automation). This enables a flexible and stepwise extension of the storage capacity of your biobank up to several hundred thousand samples, which are necessary, for example, in the field of laboratory medical applications. The transport between the single storage systems is done by special transport containers to ensure the uninterrupted cooling chain.
