Cryometrix S-90 Low Temperature Shipper
Advanced LN2-Based Cold Chain Shipping for Pharmaceuticals and Biotech
The Cryometrix S-90 Low Temperature Shipper is a state-of-the-art, ultra-low temperature shipping solution designed to meet the strict demands of pharmaceutical, biotechnology, clinical research, and cell therapy industries. By integrating a programmable temperature range, on-board liquid nitrogen (LN2) supply, and autonomous power source, the S-90 delivers unmatched reliability, safety, and operational efficiency for temperature-sensitive logistics.
Dry ice is rapidly becoming obsolete in high-value shipping due to its environmental impact, manual labor requirements, and lack of precise temperature control. The Cryometrix S-90 addresses these issues with cutting-edge LN2 freezing technology and eliminates the need for manual temperature stabilization, reducing both labor and risk.
Redefining Cold Chain Shipping
The S-90 enables precise temperature management across a programmable range of +20°C to -90°C, ensuring product stability across the entire shipping process. It holds payload temperatures with a uniformity of ±3°C, safeguarding biologics, vaccines, clinical trial materials, and other sensitive pharmaceutical products.
Unlike traditional shipping containers that rely on dry ice or mechanical cooling, the Cryometrix S-90 offers programmable, repeatable performance with digital control and logging. This ensures full compliance with Good Distribution Practice (GDP) and other regulatory standards.

Key Advantages of the Cryometrix S-90
Precise and Programmable Temperature Control
Maintaining an accurate temperature is critical in biopharmaceutical logistics. The S-90 allows users to set and maintain any temperature between +20°C and -90°C, eliminating the wide fluctuations commonly experienced with dry ice and conventional systems. This precision ensures the integrity of vaccines, biologics, and cell therapies throughout the entire supply chain.
The system also reaches -80°C in under 60 minutes, allowing for rapid deployment and minimizing preconditioning time.
Self-Contained System for True Portability
The S-90 is fully self-contained, with its own on-board liquid nitrogen storage tank and battery-powered electrical system. This independence from external power and cryogenic sources makes it ideal for both long-distance transportation and local distribution.
It can maintain a setpoint of -80°C for up to 15 days without refueling or recharging, providing assurance for long-haul shipments or customs delays.
Enhanced Data Integrity and Security
Cryometrix incorporates built-in temperature and user activity data logging that tracks freezer performance, alarms, and all user interactions. These logs are accessible via a touchscreen interface or can be downloaded via USB for compliance reporting, audits, or archiving.
The system supports up to 30 individual user profiles and three security levels, controlling who can access, adjust, or modify key operational settings. This ensures that only authorized personnel can open the unit, adjust the temperature setpoint, or configure system parameters.
High-Capacity Storage with Customizable Interior
The S-90 supports an interior volume of 33.5 cubic feet (or 950 liters) and can hold up to 72,000 cryogenic vials (1.2–2.0 mL, internally threaded). It includes adjustable shelving configured every 0.5 inches for maximum flexibility.
Standard configuration includes three stainless steel shelves, each capable of holding 6 racks with 5 boxes deep, based on a standard 100-vial box layout. This modular setup makes loading and unloading highly efficient, mimicking upright lab freezer functionality.

Environmental Sustainability and Operational Efficiency
Reduced Energy Consumption
The S-90 uses up to 90 percent less energy than comparable mechanical compressor-based freezers. This drastic reduction in power demand is achieved by eliminating compressors and refrigerants entirely and utilizing the boiling point of LN2 (-196°C) as the primary cooling source.
This also enables silent operation, reducing noise pollution in lab and warehouse environments. Since LN2 requires no electricity to function, the unit can continue to operate effectively during power outages or natural disasters.
Sustainable Materials and Low Emissions
Constructed entirely of 100 percent stainless steel, both inside and out, the S-90 is built for longevity and easy sterilization. There are no refrigerant chemicals, oils, or CFCs involved, which makes the system environmentally friendly and regulatory compliant.
The only emission from the system is nitrogen, a harmless, inert gas that constitutes more than 75 percent of Earth’s atmosphere.
Extreme Reliability for Long-Term Investment
Fewer Moving Parts, Less Maintenance
Traditional compressor-based freezers contain numerous moving parts that wear over time and require regular maintenance. The S-90, by contrast, has virtually no moving components, which significantly extends its operational life and reduces maintenance costs.
This system design also enables operation across a wide range of ambient temperatures without the need for auxiliary HVAC systems.
Long Warranty and Support
Every Cryometrix S-90 comes with a 20-year warranty on the cooling system, a testament to its durability and performance. This extended warranty helps reduce total cost of ownership and provides long-term peace of mind for high-throughput laboratories, pharmaceutical manufacturers, and logistics providers.This system design also enables operation across a wide range of ambient temperatures without the need for auxiliary HVAC systems.
