Benchtop Freeze Dryers

These FreeZone Benchtop Freeze Dryers are engineered for lyophilizing light to moderate sample loads. Their compact design makes them ideal for laboratories with limited floor space.

Available Models:

FreeZone 4.5L -105 °C
The upright stainless steel collector coil holds 4.5 liters of ice before defrosting. Two 1/2 hp HCFC/CFC-free refrigeration systems cool the collector to -105 °C (-157 °F) at 60 Hz or -102 °C (-152 °F) at 50 Hz. This model is suitable for low eutectic point samples, including acetonitrile and dilute methanol or ethanol.

FreeZone 8L -50°C
The upright stainless steel collector coil holds 8 liters of ice before defrosting. A single 3/4 hp HCFC/CFC-free refrigeration system cools the collector to -50 °C (-58 °F), making it ideal for aqueous samples.

FreeZone 4.5L -84°C
The upright stainless steel collector coil holds 4.5 liters of ice before defrosting. Two 1/3 hp HCFC/CFC-free refrigeration systems cool the collector to -84 °C (-119 °F). This model is suitable for low eutectic point samples, including acetonitrile.

FreeZone 2.5L -84°C
The upright stainless steel collector coil holds 2.5 liters of ice before defrosting. Two 1/3 hp HCFC/CFC-free refrigeration systems cool the collector to -84 °C (-119 °F), making it ideal for low eutectic point samples such as acetonitrile.

FreeZone 2.5L -50°C
The upright stainless steel collector coil holds 2.5 liters of ice before defrosting. A single 1/3 hp HCFC/CFC-free refrigeration system cools the collector to -50 °C (-58 °F), making it suitable for aqueous samples.

Features:

  • Hot gas defrost with auto shut-off at +60 °C

  • Vacuum control valve maintains the set vacuum level

  • Moisture sensor prevents refrigeration or vacuum start-up if moisture is detected in the drain line

  • Compact benchtop design with a small footprint

  • Vacuum break valve bleeds air into the system when power to the freeze dryer or vacuum pump is shut off. If a power outage lasts less than ~5 minutes, the system restarts automatically. If the outage exceeds ~5 minutes and the collector warms above safe limits, the freeze dryer will not restart automatically.
