I am looking for a more defined "heuristic" curve based upon the internal temperature. I am sure that your engineers probably have tables for such things. I also know that different foods freeze at different rates, that is why I am asking for a heuristic answer.Let's do a simple math exercise. Non Frozen food put in freeze dryer at an ambient temp … Read More

How loud is the freeze dryer pump? The pump operates at about 65-75 decibels, similar to a normal conversation or dishwasher. Many customers place their freeze dryer in a garage or separate room for quieter operation.5) Next up I insulated the pipes where condensation forms directly from the compressor. I used inexpensive water pipe insulation from… Read More

We have some really great 'techy' type guys here who are, as they have been exploring the FD mechanics and sharing that in their posts, writing what is turning out to be a 'troubleshooting manual' for us less capable folks.Furthermore, the development of vacuum drying and the control of temperature rise have increased the efficiency of the freeze-d… Read More
