BLIO Liofilizador

The Freeze-Dryer, "BLIO", designed by EDIBON, is able to carry out the freeze-drying process for the drying of different products inside a transparent chamber that allows the control of the pressure, and on heatable trays that allow to control the temperature of the product.

Once the frozen sample has been introduced into the working chamber, EDIBON freeze-drying unit allows the pressure to be reduced in a controlled way thanks to the vacuum pump that is included with the unit. In this way, it is possible to directly sublimate the humidity contained in the product introduced into the chamber. Furthermore, the tray supports incorporate electrical resistances that allow a progressive increase in temperature to guarantee optimum drying of the product.

The sublimated solvent passes to the condenser where it is retained in the form of ice due to the low temperatures and is evacuated as liquid water at the end of the process.

The freeze-drying unit "BLIO" allows to control the operation conditions: pressure, product temperature and operation time.

The control, monitoring and recording of the process variables are carried out through an integrated PLC that incorporates a touch screen for data visualization. Thus it is possible to compare the freeze-drying process of different products and find out the influence of each of the operating parameters. Furthermore, if the optimal freeze-drying values of a product are known, it is possible to pre-program the unit to carry out a fully automated operation.
