Biopharma Process Systems have now made a VirTis AdVantage freeze dryer available for hire throughout
the UK & Ireland.
The decision to make a freeze dryer available for hire was made due to extensive customer feedback.
Some have either ordered a freeze dryer, but don’t want to wait for it to be delivered before
getting started, while others want to test their processes before committing to what can be an expensive
piece of equipment. Alternatively our customers may want to familiarise themselves with the machinery,
control systems and theory before their full scale system arrives.
The VirTis AdVantage is the world’s only fully temperature controlled, single shelf, bench-top instrument.
It is already popular in many research laboratories and universities due to its wide range of features
and extensive freeze-drying capabilities. Small enough to fit onto most laboratory benchtops, it has complete
flexibility to process bulk, vials or flasks in a space-saving design. It is ideal for small scale freeze
drying applications, such as those occurring in pilot or research and development laboratories. The shelf
is capable of temperatures from -60°C to +65°C, with a 2.0 litre process condenser achieving a low temperature
of -70°C.
The AdVantage is supplied with the new ‘Wizard2’ control system that provides storage of up to 16 separate
recipes each with 12 freezing and 16 primary drying steps that include step, hold or rate function and vacuum
control for complete flexibility in cycle formulation. These state-of-the-art control systems ensure precise
freeze-drying control, particularly important for handling extremely valuable or sensitive biological materials.
The AdVantage is available to hire from Biopharma Process Systems throughout the UK & Ireland with accompanying
vacuum pump and oil mist eliminator.
Don't forget that Biopharma Technology Ltd are also able to offer qualified assistance on all aspects of formulation
and cycle development - please contact us for more details.
