Creating a blank program (1)

This button is used to call up a blank program template. Only section 1 is

pre-defined as the loading section. In this phase, the start conditions of the

programs are defined. The room temperature (20°C) is the standard

default.

NOTE

If the product is frozen outside the freeze-dryer (double-chamber method),

the shelf temperature must be adapted accordingly in section 1.

For all the other sections, the set values must be defined (see figure

below):

• Press the button “Insert section” (4) and select the position of the

section as well as the freeze-drying phase. The section will be inserted

at the defined position.

• Adapt the parameters of the inserted section. All of the values are not

available in all of the freeze-drying phases.

• Insert and edit the next section.

NOTE

During the creation of a program, the order of the individual freeze-drying

phases must be maintained. This means that it is not possible to insert a

freezing section after a main drying section.
