We have a second cryostat. This is also used during our scheduled pm's each year when a contracted company comes in for this purpose. Since we have frozens most days, we really can't be without a cryostat.

Do most sites have a spare cryostat to use when one is defrosting or do you pay staff to come in on the weekends to do this? I know this requirement has been out for over a year and hoping for some good feedback now. Beth A.
