Refrigerated Storage

Refrigerated storage refers to the storing of goods in a cooled area. All types of heat are removed from the storage chambers. Chamber sizes can vary by industry. Cold storage helps prevent the growth of bacteria, the spoilage of food and keep items at a constant cold temperature. Refrigerated storage is commonly used in industries such as:

• Food
• Plants 
• Cosmetics 
• Pharmaceuticals 
• Textiles 

Refrigerated Incubators

Peltier-cooled incubators and compressor-cooled incubators are used in biological and medical research. Both maintain a stable temperature and create a suitable environment for cell cultures. However, both cooled incubators have 3 key differences:

1. Cooling Technology: Peltier-cooled incubators use a thermoelectric cooling technology, while compressor-cooled incubators use a compressor, condenser and evaporator to cool the chamber.
2. Temperature Range: Compressor-cooled incubators have a wider temperature range than Peltier-cooled incubators. 
3. Application: Peltier-cooled incubators are more commonly used for bacteria and microalgae. Compressor-cooled incubators are more commonly used for mammalian cell culture and protein expression.
