Pilot freeze drying systems Innovative technology High performance and high efficiency

Successful from proof of principle to production One of our company's most innovative fields of activity is the manufacture of freeze dryers for process development and small-scale production - our pilot freeze drying systems. Pilot freeze dryers from Martin Christ are ideally suited to research & development. They are also the perfect choice for small-batch series production. Users can choose from various models. Each of them delivers optimal results in the freeze drying of solids or liquids in a wide variety of containers. With similar geometries, comparable temperature control systems and...

Optimal equipment for R&D and small-batch series production High-performance pilot systems with large ice capacity The Epsilon 1-4 LSCplus and Epsilon 2-4 LSCplus freeze dryers are the best choice for routine tasks. The single-chamber system has a 4 kg ice condenser integrated in the product chamber. The large shelf is cooled directly by the refrigerant, resulting in a low shelf temperature as well as cooling and heating rates that are nearly twice as fast as indirectly cooled shelves. Equipped with stainless steel shelves with a synthetic heat transfer fluid, the larger freeze dryers Epsilon...

Smart solutions for optimal process observation Well-conceived, fully integrated tools LyoControl – freezing point determination The LyoRx sensor monitors the electrical resistance and product temperature. From the curves of both of these variables, you can automatically determine the freezing point of your product. Our LyoLogplus software with LyoControl makes this possible. The LyoRx sensor allows automated control of the energy supply to the shelves during the main drying phase, so you can avoid critical temperatures during the main drying phase. This reduces the risk of defrosting effects...

Smart solutions for optimal process observation Fully integrated tools Pressure rise test The transition between main drying and final drying can be determined using the pressure rise test. This is done by briefly closing the valve between the product chamber and the ice condenser. If the pressure rise in the product chamber with the intermediate valve closed remains below a defined limit, moisture is no longer sublimating from the product and final drying can be started automatically. LyoCoN – controlled nucleation The LyoCoN controlled freezing function from Martin Christ ensures the simultaneous...

Processes monitoring LSCplus system controller For precise documentation and evaluation Our experience shows: processes must be precisely monitored and documented. This is the only way to achieve exact and precise analysis of a wide range of applications – regardless of the drying recipe and batch size. Documentation and archiving of all process data is possible with the LyoLogplus software, which can be installed on a separate PC. Data can be transferred from the freeze drying system to the PC via USB storage media or directly over Ethernet. LyoLogplus enables seamless documentation and post-process...
