Specification (summary)
- FD-30F Series pilot freeze dryer for vial and bulk product processing; models: FD-30F-R (normal) and FD-30F-TP (with vial stoppering).
- Designed for pharmaceuticals, vaccines, probiotics, polypeptides, biological samples and similar materials; in‑chamber pre-freezing avoids manual transfer and contamination.
- GMP-configurable design with CE and ISO options; wall-pass (wall-cross) layout and air-cooled refrigeration available.
Refrigeration system
- Dual-stage refrigeration with hermetic compressors for stable low-temperature performance and reduced noise.
- Pressure control components from established manufacturers (e.g., Danfoss) and brazed-plate heat exchanger in the loop.
- Condenser/cold-trap designed to reach very low temperatures (typical specification ≤ -75 °C; silicone-oil configurations reference down to ~ -86 °C).
- Shelf temperature control range typically -50 °C to +70 °C (±1 °C at balance); air-cooled versions operate without additional room cooling equipment.
Dry chamber
- Rectangular dry chamber enabling pre-freezing and drying in the same enclosure to reduce handling.
- Chamber and shelves in polished SS304 (SS316 optional for product-contact parts); high-transmittance observation door and rounded inner corners for cleaning.
- Inner wall roughness ≤ 0.6 μm; shelf flatness ≤ ±0.5 mm/m to promote uniform drying.
- Silicone-oil circulation heating for high temperature precision (electric heating optional); each shelf inspected for roughness and flatness.
Condenser (cold trap)
- Large-capacity stainless-steel condenser (SS304 standard, SS316 optional) with fast ice capture capability.
- Independent cylinder-type cold trap available on selected models for easier ice removal and higher capture efficiency.
- Patented gas diversion and electric defrost around condenser to improve trapping uniformity and simplify defrosting.
Circulation system
- Shielded circulating pump (reputable brands) and PID-controlled electric heating for silicone-oil circulation; low-viscosity, low-temperature silicone oil recommended.
- Circulation configuration fitted on FD-20F/30F/50F/100F/200F series as applicable.
FD-LYO control system
- Manual, semi-auto and automatic control modes for pilot and small-batch production with PLC and graphic touch display.
- Program storage (up to 32 programs, 36 segments each), real-time curve modification and USB data export; optional PC/APP remote monitoring available.
- Sensor calibration, real-time alarms, historical alarm query and user-level password protection for process control and traceability.
Vacuum system
- Standard two-stage rotary vane vacuum pump with adjustable vacuum control; optional high-performance pumps (Leybold/ULVAC/Edwards) for lower ultimate vacuum.
- Typical ultimate vacuum ≤ 5 Pa and example pumping speed ~6 L/s (model and pump dependent); system designed for low leakage.
Safety protection
- Integrated protection logic across electrical, refrigeration, vacuum and heating systems with interlocks and alarm indications.
- Protections include vacuum-loss alarms, refrigeration and heating fault alarms, power-on/off safeguards and process interlocks to prevent material damage.
Other features
- Normal (bulk) configuration for bulk products and stoppering configuration for in-chamber vial stoppering during or after drying.
- Inerting and filling interfaces (inflatable/water valves with safety diaphragm) for inert gas operations to extend product shelf life.
- Certificates and compliance options: CE, ISO 9001, ISO 13485, ISO 14001; configurable to GMP.
Main components / materials highlighted
- Hermetic refrigeration compressors, Danfoss pressure units/valves and brazed-plate heat exchanger.
- Condenser/cold trap in SS304 (SS316 optional), circulating pump (e.g., Grundfos) and silicone-oil circulation system.
- PLC + touch display, recorder with USB export and optional PC/APP remote software; two-stage rotary vane vacuum pump standard.
Optional items
- Wall-cross (GMP) layout and assembly, FD-LYO PC/remote control (WiFi/APP), higher-spec PLC/touchscreen and SS316 product-contact materials.
- Alternative vacuum pump brands and higher-performance vacuum packages, electric or hot-gas defrost options.
Specification (summary)
- Models: FD-30F-R (normal) / FD-30F-TP (with stoppering).
- Freeze-drying area: 0.4 m² (R) / 0.306 m² (TP); shelf size: 300 × 340 mm; tray size: 295 × 335 mm.
- Shelf quantity: R = 4+1 pcs; TP = 3+1 pcs. Shelf spacing example: R 50 mm / TP 70 mm.
- Shelf temp. range: -50 °C to +70 °C (±1 °C at balance). Cold-trap temp: design ≤ -75 °C (silicone-oil variants reference lower values).
- Ice capture: ~8 kg / 24 h (typical). Ultimate vacuum: ≤ 5 Pa. Vial capacity examples: Ф22 ~728 (R) / 546 (TP).
- Dimensions (mm): R 920×780×1350 (~400 kg); TP 1280×900×1630 (~450 kg). Electric: 220 V 50 Hz (110 V 60 Hz option).
