BFD-10C Freeze Dryers
The Vikumer BFD-10C freeze dryer is a compact laboratory freeze drying unit, enable investigator precise control the lyophilization process of shelves temperature and vacuum degree, prepare technology transfer to clincal trials or commercial production easily.
Lab Advanced Research Freeze Dryer
The BFD-10C laboratory lyophilizer is an economic freeze dryer with compact size and high control performance. It has been designed specially for professional research laboratories and universities, to satisfy all R+D practices.
Vikumer’s BFD-10C freeze dryer combines many of the features of large freeze drying systems, of controller function and system performance. Such as PLC based control system, user friendly HMI with LYO software, shelves cooling and heating, pressure control, recipes management, graphics etc.
To minimum the machine size, the BFD-10C main base without a vacuum pump inbuilt. As an option, the vacuum connector is located on lateral of freeze dryer, vacuum pump/hose installs beside freeze dryer, inside or outside of GMP room.
