FreeZone® bench top freeze dryers are designed for lyophilising light to moderate sample loads. The compact design is ideal for laboratories with limited floor space.
- Consistent, high quality results with flexible programming, and on board data collection
- Challenging samples are easy with accessories designed specifically for laboratory samples
- Brushed stainless steel and glacier white, powder-coated steel exterior with blue accents
- End-Zone™ end point detection option takes the guess work out of sample dryness
- PTFE-coated collector coil and chamber for processing involving corrosive compounds
- Moisture sensor that prevents refrigeration or vacuum start-up when moisture is detected in the drain line
Lyo-Works™ OS provides a real time display of collector temperature and vacuum level on a full colour touch screen. One-touch data logging and display provides information to maximise sample quality and minimise run time. Customisable settings include language, time zone, temperature and vacuum. Alerts and feedback of current operating parameters can be sent automatically to user-entered email addresses. A moisture sensor prevents refrigeration or vacuum start-up when moisture is detected in the drain line.
Collectors that reach –50 °C are available with capacities from 2,5 to 18 L. Freeze dryers with collector capacities that reach –84 °C are ideal for freeze drying samples with low eutectic temperatures including ones containing acetonitrile. FreeZone® 4,5 L freeze dryers also have capacities that reach –105 °C, which are suitable for samples containing dilute methanol and ethanol.
Ordering information: Vacuum pump with a displacement of at least 98 litres per minute, 0,002 mbar ultimate pressure and fitting suitable for 3/4" ID vacuum hose, tray dryer or other drying accessory and freeze dry glassware (if not bulk freeze drying) are not supplied with the freeze dryer, please order these separately. Please contact Avantor for further details.
