Controllable Isothermic Vapor Storage (CIVS)

Our fully programmable CIVS is ideal for static temperature storage as well as for applications requiring time/temperature profiling. Easy to maintain, patent protected CIVS units have very low power requirements, and need no external environmental control or backup electrical generation. The units emit no heat to the surrounding environment, are portable, and are supplied with computer interface capability.

Every CIVS unit is custom built to your size specifications and usage requirements. Customizable storage racks, canisters and frames are available for any biologistic or research application, offering easily accessible space and cost efficient storage. CIVS units are rugged and come with a three-year warranty on vacuum and electronics.
