SD-Basic Laboratory Scale Spray Dryer

A simple and effective laboratory scale spray dryer for product research and development.

The SD-Basic spray dryer is designed to enable initial product trials and evaluation to be carried out quickly and efficiently.

The unit is supplied with a complete glassware set comprising main drying chamber, cyclone, sample collection and waste collection bottles, clamps, seals and all necessary tubing.

A self-priming peristaltic pump delivers the liquid sample from a container through a small diameter jet into the main chamber. At the same time compressed air enters the outer tube of the jet which causes the liquid to emerge as a fine atomised spray into the drying chamber.

Heated air is blown through the main chamber evaporating the liquid content of the atomised spray. The solid particles of the material, which are normally in a free flowing state, are then separated from the exhaust air flow by a cyclone and collected in the sample collection bottle. The exhaust airflow is directed through a flexible 50 mm diameter hose direct to atmosphere or to an existing extraction system.

SD-06 Laboratory Scale Spray Dryer

The LabPlant SD-06 Laboratory Scale Spray Dryer is the result of 30 years of continuous development in the field of laboratory scale spray drying systems.

The unit is self contained and supplied complete and ready for immediate operation. All major components are housed within a stainless steel cabinet and the unit can be used on a bench top or with an optional stainless steel stand.

The SD-06 only requires connection to a 13 amp, 220/240 V, 50 Hz power supply (Other Power Requirements Available) and provision for exhausting the evaporated moisture to atmosphere or to an existing extraction system.

A menu driven microprocessor controller allows the selection of inlet temperature, airflow, automatic de-blocker frequency and pump speed. The controller features an RS 232 output for connection to a PC or datalogger and software allows the control and monitoring of all functions and printing of results.

The self-priming peristaltic pump delivers the sample liquid from a container through a small diameter jet into the main chamber. At the same time an integral compressor pumps air into the outer tube of the jet which causes the liquid to emerge as a fine atomised spray into the drying chamber.

Heated air is blown through the main chamber evaporating the liquid content of the atomised spray. The solid particles of the material, which are normally in a free flowing state, are then separated from the exhaust air flow by a cyclone and collected in the sample collection bottle. The exhaust airflow is directed through a flexible 50 mm diameter hose direct to atmosphere or to an existing extraction system.
