THE MODULAR SYSTEMS
The Atlas RAYTM freeze dryers are designed as modular
systems. The freeze dryer cabinet, the heating plates and the vapour condenser
are built as individual units.
The modular design offers a number of
advantages during installation and operation:
- A shorter interval between order and commercial production thanks to
quick installation.
- Easy access for cleaning and maintenance.
- Local subcontracting becomes a viable option for dryer assembly.

RAYTM 8, 17, 30, 45
AND 50

A water flushing de-icing system is used for the smaller
RAYTM freeze dryer
cabinets.
At the end of every freeze drying cycle, the
condenser is flushed with pre-heated water. Ice in the condenser melts
within 10 minutes, whereupon the water is drained.
Water flushing is
ideal for small systems.

RAYTM 75, 100, 125
AND 150 with CDI

The larger RAYTM cabinets incorporate
Continuous De-Icing system (CDI). The CDI system is fully automatic. It
ensures:
- A maximum ice build-up to 5 mm (1/5"), resulting in a
negligible temperature drop over the ice and low energy consumption in the
refrigeration plant.
- Constant condenser capacity.
- High freeze drying capacity per square metre of tray surface.
- Short time from one charge to another.
- Higher overall profitability in your large-scale freeze drying
process.
