Freeze Dryer

FAQ for Freeze Dryer

1: What is the purpose of the pre-freezing function in the Freeze Dryer condenser?

The pre-freezing function lowers the temperature of the condenser before sublimation begins. This ensures that moisture from the sample is captured more efficiently, improving the freeze-drying process and reducing the chances of sample degradation during drying.

2: Is it possible to store multiple drying programs on a Freeze Dryer?

Yes, many of our freeze dryers offer the ability to store multiple drying programs. These programs can be customized and saved, allowing you to handle a variety of sample types with different drying parameters. With these settings, you can store hundreds of recipes, each with up to 36 customizable segments, providing flexibility for efficient and consistent processing.

3: How do I know when the freeze-drying process is complete?

The Freeze Dryer features a control panel that continuously monitors key parameters such as sample temperature, condenser temperature, and vacuum levels throughout the drying process. The system will display real-time data and typically includes visual or audible alarms when the process is complete.

4: What materials are used in the construction of a Freeze Dryer?

Freeze Dryers are built using corrosion-resistant stainless steel for key components such as the condenser, trays, drying shelves, and pre-freezing shelves. For more demanding applications involving harsh chemicals or solvents, some models offer optional upgrades to higher-grade stainless steel for improved durability and resistance.
