for the food industrywith electric heatingstainless steel

Product overview

• FD-12 series lab freeze dryer (lyophilizer) designed for laboratory-scale freeze-drying and small production; FD-12-TP is the top-press variant with a total shelf area of 0.08 m² and ice removal capacity 4 kg/24 h.
• DANFOSS (SECOP) compressors with two-stage refrigeration using CFC-FREE refrigerants; air-cooled design.
• 7" touch screen with Labfreez® FD management: drying curve, vacuum, condenser temperature, run time and ambient temperature; USB data export and printing.
• Standard condenser -55°C; optional -80°C and -110°C dual-cascade for solvent-containing samples; optional shelf-heating program and multiple chamber configurations.

Detailed features / description
FD-12 series offers microprocessor control with graphical touchscreen, pre-freezing function, corrosion-resistant 304 stainless-steel condenser, tops, racks and shelves, and a transparent drying chamber for safe observation. Options include dual-cascade condensers for very low temperatures, electric heating defrost for rapid ice removal, nitrogen inflation valve and manifold/stoppering configurations for vials, ampoules or flasks to support varied laboratory workflows.
