Our offered range of Pilot Plant is specially designed for controlling freezing and drying of sensitive material in vials or in bulk. These plants are user friendly and have an integral refrigeration system that allows precise temperature control as well as reliable mechanical Stopping. Maxi-Lyodel is upgradeable into Lyodel-Pilot Plant by addition of a 3-Shelf Refrigerated chamber with stopping mechanism. The 3-Shelf refrigerated unit is designed to fit on top of the Maxi-Lyodel base unit, with no additional requirement of valuable floor space.
Vial Loading Trays Single shelf loads can be stored, handled and ultimately slid on to this fence and tray accessory that is designed to maximize heat transfer by keeping the vial in direct contact with the shelf.
Bulk Trays Each stainless steel tray is capable of holding 2.5L of liquid. They are easy to clean, store and makes loading liquids very convenient.
