Seamless Integration, Continuous Operation
Karnot's iCRYO systems deliver consistent ultra-low temperature control — without complex defrosting cycles or extra in-room equipment. The open-cycle air refrigeration system supplies air cooled by a turbo module at your specified temperature.
Operating Range: -40 °C to -130 °C
Minimal Maintenance: No refrigerant leakage tests, no refrigerant purchase costs, no replenishment. Air is supplied free of charge. Oil-free operation ensures long service life.
The Snow Catcher Advantage
At extremely low temperatures where moisture instantly turns to snow, the unique Snow Catcher — a Humidity Extraction Device (HED) — prevents frost buildup on your products. This eliminates energy-consuming defrosting cycles, allowing continuous, efficient operation.
Installation is simple — just a few wall openings connect the iCRYO unit and the Snow Catcher, making setup as effortless as the reliability it provides.
Advanced Applications
Ultra-low temperature solutions for high-tech industries
Semiconductor Manufacturing
Cold temperatures evaluate device performance under extreme conditions, revealing defects affecting electron mobility. Dry etching uses cold temps for precision surface shaping.
Freeze-Drying (Lyophilisation)
Sophisticated dehydration preserving structural integrity and bioactivity. Essential for vaccines, antibiotics, and specialty foods.
Chemical Processes
Cold temperatures control reaction rates, prevent runaway exothermic reactions, and achieve selectivity and purity in products.
Physical Vapour Deposition
Enhanced PVD at -140 °C to +50 °C, accelerating vacuum processes. iCRYO integrates easily with existing PVD systems.
Space Equipment Testing
Simulating harsh space conditions to ensure materials and components withstand freezing without failure.
Freeze Chambers
Preserving biological samples, testing material durability, and flash-freezing food to retain freshness and quality.
Cryotherapy
Muscle pain relief, reduced swelling, and sports recovery. Exposure to -100 °C to -160 °C dry air for 2-4 minutes.
