Pilot & R&D Freeze Dryers
Genesis & Ultra
Introducing Ultra Prime from ATS Scientific Products
Ultra Prime is a state-of-the-art freeze dryer designed for superior performance, repeatability, and sustainability, incorporating advanced LyoLogic HMI technology. It offers enhanced cycle efficiencies, an innovative baffle system for improved ice capture on the condenser, and a more space-efficient design. These advancements reduce energy consumption, operational costs, and environmental impact.
Key Features:
- Innovative LyoLogic HMI – A new controls platform with increased functionality.
The LyoLogic control system is designed to meet the lyophilization requirements of modern pharmaceutical and biotechnology applications. Its user-friendly interface provides intuitive controls that simplify the freeze-drying process while ensuring precision and flexibility. - Upgraded GWP (Global Warming Potential) Sustainability
Ultra Prime uses refrigerant gases with GWPs of just 2 and 6, a significant improvement over previous systems, which had GWPs of 1,774 and 13,396. This reduces the environmental footprint. - Superior Performance
A single product chamber design allows for larger batches and greater product uniformity. - Space-Saving Design
A compact, free-standing, mobile design enables easy installation and optimal use of lab space. - Efficient Smooth-Walled Condenser
The smooth-walled condenser minimizes contamination risk and ensures efficient freeze-drying cycles for optimal results.
Even with its compact design, the Ultra Prime still packs a punch with shelf temperatures as low as -70ºC and condenser temperatures down to -85ºC, supporting a wide range of applications. With standard options and 50L condenser capacities, you can rest assured that there’s an Ultra Prime configuration to meet your requirements, whether that’s high moisture throughput capacity for high moisture products such as vials or bulk liquid API, or a high shelf surface to condenser surface ratio, for low moisture applications such as diagnostic kit development and tissue banking.
Available with a Merlin or LyoLogic control system.
Benefits offered by the Genesis & Ultra
- A perfect solution for operators seeking versatile freeze dryers capable of cross-over between applications / batches us at the pilot and small scale production, level
- Flexibility - an extensive choice of powerful options and add-ons enables easy scale-up from research to full scale production.
- With over 100 flexible configurations - the ideal choice whether you’re in academic research, a biotechnology or pharmaceutical company, part of a government agency, or working in industrial manufacturing.
-
Easy to customise -up to 6 shelves (Genesis) or 15 shelves (Ultra) for personalised configurations. Ultimate versatility with bulk or stoppering configurations, air cooled or water cooled, can accommodate both ‘wet’ and ‘dry’ vacuum pumps to meet the preference of the user
- Range of options - from manual controls to the latest automated control with cGMP data monitoring and automation applications for 21 CFR Part 11 requirements
- All controls and features are match those used in performance matched SP VirTis brand industrial lyophilisers, with shelves and chambers engineered using premium chemical resistant 316L stainless steel. Thereby providing advanced, reliable and scalable lyophilisation.

LyoStar 4.0
Benefits offered by the Lyostar 4.0
- Data rich environment: Ensuring product processing success, even if deviation from 'design space' occurs
- Scalability: LyoStar 4.0 offers the ability to scale up from R&D to Production scale and back again
- Faster and more efficient: SMART Technology & Controlyo reduce processing and reconstitution times significantly
- Reduced contamination risk: The non-invasive sensors of LyoFlux TDLAS and wireless probes of Tempris offer a reduced risk of cross-contamination
- Eco-friendly: LyoStar 4.0 uses a 'greener' refrigerant gas that has been selected due to its lower global warming potential
- 21 CFR Part 11 Compatible: The flexibility to scale-up or down is an important aspect in the process for developing pharmaceutical compounds. The LyoStar 4.0 has the same 21 CFR Part 11 compatible software as the LyoConstellation, making scale-up, or down, an easy transition.
Ideal for rapid lyo cycle development, optimization and scale-up, the LyoStar 4.0 incorporates the latest innovations in freeze drying technology to ensure precise process control and reliability. Enabling this are a number of upgradeable PAT tools including: LyoFlux® TDLAS sensors for vapor mass flow measurement, AutoMTM/SMART™ technology – a primary drying cycle optimization tool, ControLyo® Nucleation Technology for accurate freezing point control, a 3D modelling package for computational fluid dynamics and process monitoring, plus Tempris® wireless sensors for real-time product temperature measurement.
