Challenges with open trays
Do you encounter problems with lyophilization in open trays?
Freeze-drying in an open container entails a few risks. Dry powder escapes, leading to product loss and safety concerns. There is a risk of product contamination, and your freeze dryer may require cleaning validations between different batches.
Features of the Lyoprotect® Stainless Steel Trays Quick-Fix
Quick assembly
The Quick-Fix Trays are characterized by quick, tool-free assembly. Thanks to the specially designed fixing frame, sufficient surface pressure is achieved with just four knurled nuts.
Safe sublimation
The Lyoprotect® Membrane acts as a sterile barrier and ensures zero fly-out. Vapor effortlessly passes through the hydrophobic membrane, which supports fast drying.
Sustainability
Reduce waste by opting for multiple-use components. The sturdy stainless steel tray has a very long lifetime, only the corresponding single-use membrane must be discarded.
Easy cleaning
Stainless steel trays are resistant against harsh cleaning substances. Laser-welded 45° corners and the polished surface facilitate residue-free cleaning.
High quality
High-grade stainless steel ANSI 316 L (1.4404) makes the tray suitable for a broad range of applications. All trays are manufactured in Germany and have an exceptionally plane bottom. Work’s test certificate 3.1.
Sterilization
All components including the membrane are suited for sterilization in an autoclave at 121°C (250°F) for 20 minutes. APIs can be aseptically produced in compliance with GMP.
