Pilot freeze dryer for laboratory and small-scale production

Achieve precise temperature and vacuum control for consistent freeze-drying results, ideal for transforming raw samples into stable, long-lasting end-products.

Freeze-Dries and Stabilizes Biological and Pharmaceutical Materials

The VirTis Genesis Pilot Freeze Dryer from Scientific Products is designed to enhance your laboratory research and small-scale production with reliable freeze-drying capabilities. Its compact, mobile design allows easy integration into your workspace. Featuring a full-color touchscreen and ethernet compatibility, it’s equipped for streamlined workflows and precise control of temperature and vacuum parameters. Ideal for applications like bone/tissue engineering, serum bottle lyophilization, and bulk analysis of plant materials, the Genesis Pilot supports a variety of product types, including solids, liquids, and cakes.

With configurable options, including manual or automated controls, it aligns with 21 CFR Part 11 requirements for pharmaceutical processes. Engineered with robust 316L stainless steel chambers and shelves for chemical resistance, it offers up to six shelves and a -70°C to -85°C temperature range for diverse freeze-drying needs. The quick defrost smooth-wall condenser minimizes downtime between cycles, and the front-facing vacuum pump facilitates easy maintenance. Customize its configuration to fit specific application requirements and benefit from the commitment to quality that matches industrial lyophilizers in performance.
