Hull LyoConstellation™ Small-Scale Aseptic Freeze Dryers

Hull LyoConstellation™ Small-Scale Aseptic Freeze Dryers

The newest additions to the LyoConstellation™ family, S20-A, S30-A, and S50-A, are a series of aseptic small-scale freeze dryers designed to seamlessly integrate with our aseptic autoloader, making them suitable for use in isolators and oRABS environments.

Our autoloader enhances line sterility assurance while maintaining a reduced footprint. Its compact design fits easily into existing cleanroom layouts and eliminates manual intervention, helping your team work more efficiently without adding complexity.

Features & Benefits

  • Fully automated operation — enables consistent, efficient row-by-row vial loading and unloading while reducing manual intervention and human error
  • Bellows-free loading pusher — eliminates hidden contamination risks by removing hard-to-clean components and preventing non-sterile parts from entering the process chamber
  • First-air optimized sub-door — enhances sterility assurance by fully exposing critical surfaces during decontamination and minimizing contamination at transfer points
  • Compact footprint — maximizes valuable cleanroom space with an integrated design ideal for small-batch production; for redundant configurations (compressors and vacuum circuits), a specially integrated frame optimizes space, reducing the footprint even within the freeze dryer technical area
  • Seamless aseptic integration — designed for isolators and oRABS systems, enabling smooth connection with small-scale freeze dryers and fill-finish lines
  • Compliance-ready design — supports cGMP (FDA & EU Annex 1), 21 CFR Part 11, GAMP5, and ASME-BPE requirements for regulatory confidence
