How to Choose

The LGJ series laboratory freeze dryers are designed for routine laboratory freeze drying and sample preparation. Based on their features, we provide recommendations to help you select the most suitable option.

The LGJ-10 is extremely compact, benchtop type, can put on laboratory countertop, save valuable lab space.

The intuitive, easy-to-use control interface that is researcher-friendly, even untrained workers can learn to operate it quickly.

If you are looking for a unit for teaching demonstrations, freeze-drying small volumes of material for further study, or routine freeze-drying tasks, the LGJ-10 is an ideal solution.

The LGJ-20 incorporates all functions of the LGJ-10 and offers optional shelf temperature programming and automatic pressure control. These advanced features enable faster freeze-drying cycles and improved process reproducibility.

Vacuum and shelf temperature programming, available as an option on the LGJ-20, is a key feature of industrial freeze dryers and allows laboratories to move closer to industrial-scale processing.

The LGJ-20Plus extends the capabilities of the LGJ-20 by incorporating a larger ice condenser and drying chamber, providing increased capacity for larger batch processing.

The LGJ-20Plus is also available in a -120C version (final ice condenser temperature), enabling it to handle chemicals such as organic solvents.

The LGJ-20M comes with a 24-port manifold, ideal for drying materials that are loaded in round-bottom or wide-neck flasks.

The 26L large-capacity ice condenser enables user to process multiple batches before defrosting.
