2.0 Introduction
The Farrar Scientific ULC/ULCi is a forced air low temperature long term storage freezer which can attain
interior chamber temperatures between -20°C to -80°C, depending on the model. The ULC Series chamber
consists of two (2) redundant cascade refrigeration systems. There are two (2) condensers, two (2)
evaporators, and a total of four (4) compressors. Both refrigeration systems are packaged type systems
(compressor, evaporator, condenser & circulating fan), resting on top of the chamber. The refrigeration
systems have separate electrical power supply via two (2) power cords including two (2) redundant LCD
controllers mounted onto each of the exterior doors. The ULC Series is not meant as a walk-in chamber, but
rather a shelved unit for long term storage of samples and/or product at temperature between -20°C to -80°C.
ULC Series offers a true fully redundant solution (refrigeration, displays, and controls). The LCD Display
information center enables users with access control to adjust the temperature control setpoint between -20°C
to -80°C, depending on the model. All functions and set points can be performed by accessing either LCD
display located on each of the exterior doors. Since the displays are synchronized any adjustments or set
point programmed on one of the LCD displays will automatically be synchronized on the other LCD display.
The ULC Series is delivered with factory default, therefore, we recommend proper access control assignment
to each user e.g. (User Name) from the facility Administrator or Operator to Users. If a user does not have
sufficient privilege or granted access control, then no set points or values can be changed within each of the
LCD display controllers; only warning acknowledgment. Without sufficient access privilege to controller
assigned by the Administrator, each LCD display will offer a
view only mode to a non-authorized user. A User
Name/Password can be assigned and programmed by facility Administrator and the User Name/Password
should be maintained and controlled according to company protocols.
