The Lyostat 5 freeze drying microscope (FDM) allows you to complete freeze dry microscopy with pin-point accuracy, revealing the behaviours and critical temperatures of your products.
Temperature range -196°C to +125°C
Sample value from 2uL
Sample chamber vacuum tight to 10-3 mbar
High-resolution, 3.2 megapixel sensor
Capture up to 80GB information
Rotary vane vacuum pump.
By Investing in Lyostat 5, You Can:
Conduct critical event analysis in freeze drying to set safe maximum product temperatures.
Reliably detect instances of collapse, eutectic, crystallisation, annealing, and skin and crust formation.
Visually observe collapse taking place in real time using Lyostat 5’s high-res, in-built camera – negating the need to infer this through time-intensive differential scanning calorimetry (DSC).
Ensure quick and simple integration into your existing setup with the device’s user-friendly software and plug and play design.
Conduct a close examination of the impact of pressure on structural collapse through the instrument’s motorised vacuum control system – which displays in mBar, kPA or mTorr.
Capture clearer images as a result of the device’s minimal use of lenses – when compared with compound microscopes.
Complete fast liquid nitrogen cooling – made possible by the instrument’s automatic twin-pump cooling system. This also includes a 2L dewar and flexible insulated tubing for additional convenience.
Gain a trusted solution for your long-term operations, as the device’s durable design provides a product lifetime of 60,000 hours.
