CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION Congratulations on your purchase of a Labconco FreeZone® Freeze Dry System, which is designed for laboratory lyophilization procedures. The refrigerant used in the refrigeration system is CFC-free so it will not endanger the environment. The unit is easy to install and maintain. Proper care and maintenance of this product will result in many years of dependable service.
Chapter 1: Introduction Freeze Dry Rates The efficiency of the freeze drying process is dependent upon the surface area and the thickness of the sample, the collector temperature and vacuum obtained, the eutectic point and solute concentration of the sample. It is important to remember these factors when trying to obtain efficient utilization of your freeze dry system. A listing of selected materials and their approximate drying times are shown in Table 1 for your reference.
Chapter 1: Introduction In order for lyophilization to occur, ice must be removed from the frozen sample via sublimation. This is accomplished by the collector and the vacuum pump. The collector, which should be at least 15 to 20°C colder than the eutectic temperature (melting temperature) of the sample, traps vapor as ice. Since the vapor pressure at the collector is lower than that of the sample, the flow of water vapor is from the sample to the collector.
Chapter 1: Introduction vacuum in the system may recover before adding another sample to the system. If the vacuum does not recover, the capacity of the freeze dry system has been exceeded and the sample should be removed. If there is a problem with a particular type of sample melting when placed on the freeze dry system, dilution of the sample with more water or providing some insulation around the flask to decrease the rate of heat absorption by the sample may help.

CHAPTER 7 TROUBLESHOOTING Refer to the following if your Freeze Dryer fails to operate properly. If the suggested corrective actions do not solve your problem, contact Labconco for additional assistance. Labconco Freeze Dry Systems that are clean, dry and without samples attached should reach a vacuum of 0.133 mBar within 10 minutes and should achieve an ultimate vacuum of 0.033 mBar within 18 hours when the refrigeration is operating.
Chapter 7: Troubleshooting If vacuum problems continue, consider obtaining a second vacuum gauge capable of reading a vacuum of 0.010 mBar. It is often useful in determining if the vacuum pump is operating properly and the vacuum sensor reading is accurate. 4. Isolate the pump by disconnecting the vacuum hose from the Freeze Dryer. Deadhead the pump by inserting the vacuum sensor from a secondary vacuum gauge into the end of the vacuum hose and observe the vacuum reading obtained.
Chapter 7: Troubleshooting 7. Make sure that the sample valve bulkhead nuts are tight. Either tighten by hand or use the wrench supplied with chambers. To use the wrench, first remove the knob and stem assembly and also the valve body. The pins on the wrench fit into the round holes of the nut. The nut should be snug, but avoid over-tightening. Replace the valve body, knob and stem assembly. The illustrations below show how the sample valve installs on a chamber and a manifold.

System Components and Collection Chamber Isolation 1. Remove the drying chamber or manifold. 2. Leave the gasket on and turn a large freeze dry flask upside down to cover the connection port. 3.
Chapter 7: Troubleshooting The following test allows you to check the pump and the connections from the pump to the vacuum tube. 1. Place a rubber stopper in the vacuum port in the left side of the collector chamber and another in the drain port in the bottom. 2. Restart the vacuum system and check your vacuum indication. Insufficient vacuum indicates a bad pump or a leak in the connections from the pump to the side of the chamber.
Chapter 7: Troubleshooting 1. Remove the stopper from the side of the chamber and place a freeze dry flask over the connection port. 2. Fill the collection chamber with approximately 2 inches of water, enough to cover all fittings. Replace the collection chamber lid and turn on the vacuum pump. Allow the vacuum pump to run for approximately 5 to 10 seconds. (If the vacuum pump is left on, the water will begin to boil and the test will not be effective).
Chapter 7: Troubleshooting Refrigeration Module Operation Under a no-load condition, the FreeZone Single Stage Freeze Dry System can achieve a collector temperature of -50°C or lower when the system is under vacuum, within 30 minutes when the vacuum pump is running, depending on ambient temperature and humidity. Cascade Freeze Dry Systems will achieve -84°C within 30 minutes.
CHAPTER 8 MODIFYING YOUR FREEZE DRYER DISPLAY Your Freeze Dryer has been carefully calibrated and tested before shipping, however under certain circumstances it may be necessary to adjust the calibration of the temperature and/or vacuum display or to modify alarm points. Adjustments may be necessary if the Freeze Dryer requires service or if it is operating on a line voltage outside the voltage range at which the alarm was preset.
Chapter 8: Modifying Your Freeze Dryer Display approximately 206V or rises above approximately 254V. Some models are designed to operate below these ranges (see Appendix C). In these cases it is permissible to lower the low voltage alarm point to prevent nuisance alarms from occurring. Low line limit may be lowered in 5 increments of approximately 2 to 3V increments for 115V models or disabled. Low line limit may be lowered in 5 increments of approximately 4 to 5V increments for 230V models or disabled.
