The LyoDry Compact benchtop freeze dryer is a cost-effective solution for laboratories in search of a reliable, affordable benchtop lyophilizer that is designed and manufactured in the UK.
The LyoDry Compact offers condenser temperature options of either -55°C or -85°C, with an ice capacity of 5Kg per batch and is modular, allowing it to be used with a variety of freeze dryer chambers and accessories.
LyoDry Compact was initially created to serve as a direct replacement for the obsolete Edwards Modulyo freeze dryer, featuring an accessory flange that is identical, allowing freeze drying chambers and accessories to be typically compatible with both models.
The latest generation LyoDry Compact incorporates many modern day enhancements, including:
a polished stainless steel chassis - ideal for laboratory environments
a bright, clear LCD digital display which is visible even from a distance
temperature units in Celsius or Fahrenheit; vacuum units in millibar, Torr or pascal
a system start-up bar clearly indicating the time remaining until 'Ready'
vacuum pump control on-screen with simple commands
automatic hot gas defrost
The LyoDry Compact offers a variety of freeze drying chambers and accessories for you to choose from. Options range from a clear acrylic chamber with lid and L-gaskets, stainless steel tray accessory (with or without heater mats and a controller), a column manifold for flask drying, an acrylic chamber with a ported lid for bulk and flask drying needs and a vial stoppering accessory.
Additionally, we provide a bell jar for smaller batches, secondary drying manifolds and spin freezers, and a vial stoppering accessory.
The recommended vacuum pump provided is an oil rotary vane vacuum pump by default, or a dry scroll vacuum pump can be supplied if an oil-free option is preferred. We can also offer guidance on whether your current vacuum pump is suitable.
As its name suggests, the LyoDry Compact occupies a compact footprint. It is designed to sit on a laboratory bench; or for added height, convenience and portability, on an optional purpose-built, stainless steel trolley which has a lower shelf for the vacuum pump, with castors and brakes.
If you are looking for an economical, versatile benchtop freeze dryer, consider the LyoDry Compact. You can either buy it directly or opt for a hire-to-buy plan for the -55°C version, allowing you to pay in monthly installments over 12 months (terms and conditions apply; the first 3-months payment is required in advance).
Alternatively, reconditioned benchtop freeze dryers with an acrylic chamber, tray accessory and vacuum pump can be rented from £650.00 per month.
If additional features are required, such as data logging, real-time and historical temperature and pressure trends, touch screen, ethernet communications, and USB connectivity, the LyoDry Benchtop Pro provides a more closely controlled freeze-drying process.
Assistance is readily available for any help you may need, whether it's selecting your freeze dryer or seeking advice after your purchase. On-site installation and training for operators, annual service contracts, and on-demand maintenance services are all offered in the UK if necessary. Our customer service is top-notch, and we consistently receive positive feedback.
