Ultralow temperature (ULT) freezers can consume a lot of electricity. Estimates from the US Department of Energy indicate that conventional ULT freezers consume between 16 and 22 kilowatt-hours (kWh) of electricity daily, which is about the same as the average US household. If your lab has more than one of these freezers, your energy use will be staggering.

All Lab equipment is designed to sustain specific conditions for operation, either consistent temperatures when it comes to Cold Storage, Ovens or Incubators or speed for centrifuges etc.
Ultralow temperature (ULT) freezers produce very cold temperatures of up to -86º C. Now, with the technologies of virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR), ULT freezers can be even cooler.

A typical day in your lab may involve walking near a freezer, or a room full of them. These, especially ultralow temperature (ULT) freezers, are crucial pieces of equipment in any biological lab. They allow specimens to be preserved for as long as several years without loss of quality and viability.
