CoolRack L and CoolRack LV are insulated thermo-conductive modules designed to be placed in direct contact with a cooling source to keep large tubes cold without direct contact to the cooling source. Cooling sources may include ice, ice baths, or BioCision’s ice-free CoolBox™ MP or CoolBox™ XT cooling systems.

The modules are comprised of two components: an integrated thermo-conductive base and tube wells (Fig. 1) and an insulative external housing (Fig. 2). The thermo-conductive base and tube wells is made of an alloy that rapidly adapts to the cooling source it is placed on and the alloy surrounds each tube to ensure uniform and consistent cooling to all samples. The exterior housing is made of a high-density polyethylene material that is insulative and protects the tube wells from ambient temperature. The exterior is also non-absorbent and comfortable to the touch when cold.
