Pilot Standard Freeze Dryer LPFD-B15

Our Labtron Pilot Standard Freeze Dryer is primarily used for small-scale testing and sample preservation in industries such as pharmaceuticals, food technology, and biotechnology. It is ideal for researchers and developers who need to analyse the freeze-drying behavior of various materials before moving on to large-scale manufacturing. This equipment supports the preservation of heat-sensitive products by removing moisture through sublimation while maintaining structural and biochemical integrity. It provides a reliable solution for testing drugs, food samples, biological tissues, and other sensitive materials.

Temperature control is a critical factor in freeze-drying, and Labtron addresses this with a highly accurate silicone-oil-based heat transfer system. This design ensures that the shelf temperature is evenly distributed and precisely controlled across all layers. It maintains shelf temperature within ±1°C, which is especially important for consistent drying of sensitive samples. The built-in PLC system also monitors and adjusts parameters in real time, enabling both automatic and semi-automatic operation. This precision in temperature control enhances both the repeatability and reliability of the drying process.

Labtron’s freeze-dryer provides a secure, multi-user environment through a three-tier user access system. Each user account is protected with a unique password and logs all activities such as login history, operational changes, alarm events, and freeze-drying data. This promotes accountability and ensures proper documentation. Users can also export freeze-drying curves and generate detailed datasheets in PDF format for reporting or analysis. The inclusion of USB ports and offline data access enhances the flexibility and traceability of records, making the system well-suited for regulated environments.

Labtron employs a robust and efficient cooling system that includes two imported hermetic compressors. These compressors work together to ensure rapid and stable refrigeration. One compressor actively cools the other, enabling faster temperature to drop and improved efficiency. The system uses environmentally friendly refrigerants that meet international safety standards, supporting sustainable practices. It also offers low vibration and low noise performance, making it suitable for laboratory settings where minimal disturbance is preferred. The cooling system ensures consistent performance, which is crucial for reproducible freeze-drying outcomes.

Labtron’s freeze-dryer is equipped with a large 10-inch touchscreen that provides a user-friendly interface for monitoring and controlling the system. Users can view real-time data, including vacuum pressure, cold trap temperature, shelf temperatures, and material temperature all of which are essential for process optimization. The system records this data every minute, allowing for detailed process analysis. It supports up to 50 customizable recipes with 36 programmable temperature stages per recipe. These recipes can be adjusted in real time, and the system automatically adapts the sublimation time based on any changes, ensuring precise process control and efficiency.
