Description

Lab and Pilot freeze dryer Lyobeta Mini
Lyobeta family range of laboratory and R&D freeze-dryers offers high performance specifications for optimum freeze-drying results at both early and later stages of the development of a freeze-drying process development.
To bridge the existing gap between initial batch development and semi-production batches this new freeze-dryer has been designed and developed.
Lyobeta Mini possibilities of controlling freeze-drying process makes understanding of key parameters a very valuable tool for the up-scaling of the process at stages close to production. Lyobeta Mini offers similar features to bigger units using minimum space in research laboratories

Description :
– The unit’s design offers the best performance for technology transfer activities and work in advanced R&D Centres.
– Unit suitable for laboratories : compact unit mounted on casters, easy to install.
– Easy recipe development : quality and adaptation of the temperature sensors (shelf, product and condenser) and vacuum. Temperature, pressure and time control system.
– Recipe optimisation capability. Possibility of thermodynamic controland pressure rise test with the isolation valve.
– Results reliability : temperature uniformity (shelf flatness, high quality components, upper radiation shelf), shelf heating and cooling rates (1 ºC/min), etc.
– Flexible use : high capacity for working with bulk materials, option to attach manifolds. Also different sizes and types of vials.
– Robustness : laboratory equipment with industrial finish (easy to clean, stainless steel chamber, condenser and plates) and industrial components (sensors, vacuum pump, exchangers, etc.).
– Reliable operation : non-proprietary control system via PLC (Siemens).
– Flexible use : with a touch screen user interface.
– Option to save developed cycles and export data to other platforms (Excel) with the LyoLogger data acquisition software.
– Possibility to carry out optimisation studies for new formulae (scale up), with SCADA LYOLAB software, providing extensive documentation for technology transfer (optional).
