Freeze Dryer BETA 1-8 LD+

SKU: BETA 1-8 LD+ | Up to 8 kg | 1 Compressor | -55°C | LDplus Display

The Martin Christ BETA 1-8 LD+ is a laboratory freeze dryer for routine applications of larger product quantities. With an ice condenser capacity of 8 kg and a performance of 6 kg per 24 hours, it handles bigger batches than the compact ALPHA series while maintaining the same reliable LDplus control interface.

The LDplus (Lyo Display Plus) controller combines functionality with comfortable operation. The graphic LC display presents all essential process data at a glance, while self-explaining menu guidance in German, English, or French simplifies routine freeze-drying workflows.

LDplus Controller Features

• Graphic LC display with clear process data layout

• Ice condenser temperature, process time, section time, vacuum

• Self-explaining menu guidance (DE / EN / FR)

• Vacuum control for process time reduction (option)

• Product temperature via vapour pressure curve

• RS-232 interface for LyoLog LL-1 software (option)
