LyoDry Maxi Freeze Dryers are fully automated with touch screen control and controllable shelf temperatures, ideal for pilot scale or lower volume production freeze drying.
Freezing, primary and secondary drying, end point determination, backfill and stoppering sequences are all controlled by a central processor unit, allowing complex pressure/temperature profiles to be controlled accurately and reproducibly without operator intervention.
Suitable for freeze drying material in bulk, or in vials, with an option for stoppering, the LyoDry Maxi is designed to fit easily through a standard lab doorway, and requires only mains electric supply.
Clients include blue chip pharmaceutical manufacturers and government research centres, both in the UK and overseas.
SHELF TEMPERATURE AND CAPACITY
LyoDry Maxi freeze dryer is available with either 3, 4 or 5 product shelves.
Each individual shelf measures: 360mm W x 480mm D with an area of 0.172 m².
The shelves provide low controllable shelf temperatures, with an accuracy of better than ± 0.5°C. of either:
-
-40°C to + 60°C (Part No: LSM40) or
-
-60°C to + 60°C (Part No: LSM60)

CONTROL
LyoDry Maxi is factory fitted with an integral graphic chart recorder and a comprehensive alarm management system.
Process variables and product temperatures, systems status and fault indicators can be viewed in real time via the user-friendly, touch screen operator interface, or logged continuously to memory.
Complex pressure/temperature profiles are controlled accurately and reproducibly without operator intervention. n excess of 200 process profiles (recipes) can be stored and retrieved for accurate and reproducible freeze drying with endpoint determination.
STOPPERING
Optional vial stoppering is available with this model.
The temperature controlled shelves can be moved up and down via an hydraulically operated ram for stoppering, if required.
INSTALLATION AND COMMISSIONING
The compact design allows the equipment to move easily through standard sized laboratory doorways.

WHAT PEOPLE SAY
WHAT PEOPLE SAY
I have been using Mechatech Systems for approximately 9 months now. The service is excellent, fast and efficient. We bought a LyoDry Freeze Dryer and are very happy with it. The support and service was perfect to an extent that we have recently bought another Lyodry . We would happily recommend both the Lyodry Freeze dryer and Mechatech to other laboratories
