The Economic LyoPilot Freeze Dryer from Antech Scientific is a cost-effective freeze-drying solution designed for dependable laboratory use. While more economical than premium models, it still meets the essential demands of pharmaceutical and biotech environments. Equipped with essential features, the LyoPilot offers consistent performance and efficient process control.
Advanced System Technology
The LyoPilot includes a 2-chamber design that improves vapor flow while minimizing pressure drop. This setup allows better drying of sensitive samples with low eutectic points. An integrated intermediate valve supports a smooth transition between drying phases. Additionally, the standard side-opening ice condenser simplifies inspection and cleaning, streamlining lab routines.
Precise Control for Superior Results
This freeze dryer features stainless steel shelves with silicone heat transfer fluid for even heat distribution. With a temperature difference of less than 1°C between layers, it delivers excellent temperature and vacuum stability. The ASV adaptive gas injection system allows precise vacuum control, down to 0.002 mbar.
Comprehensive Analysis Tools
The LyoPilot includes essential analytical tools to improve process consistency. Real-time monitoring of eutectic points, resistivity, and pressure rise helps users maintain ideal freeze-drying conditions. Optional features like flash nucleation further enhance efficiency and product reliability.
Efficient Refrigeration and Ice Condenser System
With a dual-compressor cascade system, the LyoPilot’s condenser can reach -90°C. This low temperature supports effective vapor capture while reducing energy usage. Its built-in ice condenser and hot gas defrosting feature also allow faster cycle changeovers.
Smart Features for Optimal Process Observation
The LyoSMART+ controller features a full-color touchscreen with both manual and automatic operation. Up to 30 customizable programs can be stored, offering flexibility for different applications. It includes built-in safety protocols and USB data export for streamlined reporting.
Innovative Freeze-Drying Solutions
The LyoPilot supports essential freeze-drying functions such as pressure rise testing and freezing point determination. The LyoTR sensor tracks both temperature and resistivity to avoid unwanted defrosting and maintain optimal drying conditions. These innovations make it a reliable and economical option for routine lab needs.
