LyoStar III with control Lyo
The LyoStar3 is designed to meet the needs of R&D professionals. Our freeze drying equipment is used for applications ranging from process development for scale-up to product processing for stability studies to formulations work.
The LyoStar 3 us a Floor Model Tray/Pilot Lyophilizer from Sp scientific. This machine is used for applications that involves product processing for stability studies to creating formulations. This freeze dryer delivers the ideal process accuracy, reliability, and easy-to-use features. The LyoStar has a Type T thermocouple-controlled shelf temperature that generates an accuracy of +/- 0.5°C, and a vacuum control with a 0.1% set point. This system is installed with a 5.5 hp cascade refrigeration mechanism that allows shelf pull down to -40° in less than half an hour. It also has reliable scroll compressors that has 3 moving parts.
The LyoStar is an R&D and process development freeze-dryer that provides unmatched process accuracy, reliability and unique ease-of-use features. The LyoStar features Type T thermocouple-controlled shelf temperature accuracy of +/- 0.5°C or better and vacuum control within 0.1% of set-point. Its robust 5.5 hp cascade refrigeration system enables shelf pull down from ambient to –40°C in less than 25 minutes, and the ultra-reliable scroll compressors feature just 3 moving parts.
LyoStar3 is available with Praxair ControLyo™ Nucleation on Demand Technology. To learn how you can control the nucleation step in freeze drying view our articles and technical papers on ControLyo™ Nucleation.
