Description
FD-12 series lab freeze dryers (lyophilizers) are designed for laboratory samples and small-batch production with a transparent drying chamber for easy observation and compact, user-friendly operation.
Low-noise, high-capacity refrigeration with corrosion-resistant 304 stainless steel condenser, racks and shelves for easy cleaning.
Pre-freezing of samples supported; advanced options (-80 °C dual-cascade or -110 °C) available for solvent-containing samples or low eutectic point applications.
Electric heating defrost and nitrogen inflation valve are optional for faster turnaround and solvent management.
CE / ISO 9001 / ISO 13485 / ISO 14001 certified.
