The VirTis BenchTop Pro freeze dryer range from SP Scientific features condenser refrigeration packages of -55°C, -75°C, -85°C and -105°C—allowing users to meet the demands of both aqueous or aqueous solvent based formulations. The system can be configured for smaller sample numbers or to process a relatively heavy workload with condenser size choices of 3 liter, 8 liter or 9 liter. Manifolds are available in a variety of interchangeable styles. Traditional time losses incurred from lengthy condenser defrost and clean-up procedures are minimized with the new hot-gas defrost facility on the BenchTop Pro. The Benchtop Pro Omnitronics Controller simplifies freeze drying. One touch start-up and shut down ensure that the product and freeze dryer are protected from inadvertent operational procedures. An intuitive graphic display provides users with at-a-glance understanding of the status of the freeze dryer and whether or not appropriate freeze drying conditions exist. Audible alarms help notify the user of potential problems with the system and hence, with the product. All Omnitronics controllers come complete with a trending screen that allows users to watch critical parameters on an on-going basis if required. Utilizing optional Ethernet control, you can connect the freeze dryer to your network and monitor and control your freeze dryer from any other location on the network. The Ethernet option also allows printout in a batch record, alpha-numeric, type report.
