Page 10: Physical Location
29.5°C) Electrical Requirements There will be one power line cord running from the rear of the Dura-Dry II MP. The serial tag at the rear of each system has the voltage requirements for that system. The voltage tolerance for this system is +/-5%. These tolerances are necessary because of the lower temperature specifications of these units. -

Page 12: Liquid Nitrogen Trap
Liquid Nitrogen Trap This trap is sold as an option and may not be included with your unit. The liquid nitrogen trap (LNT) is connected to a freeze-dryer when it is important to trap high vapor pressure solvents. Typically these solvents come off of product early in the cycle. During this time the LNT can be valved so it is on line . -
Page 13: Installation
Operator’s Manual: Dura Dry II Installation The LNT is shipped separately and will need to be installed on the Dura-Dry II MP. 1. Bolt the LNT shelf to the right side of the Dura- Dry II MP with the inlet and outlet tubing entering the appropriate holes in the cabinet. -
Page 14: Operation
Nitrogen Trap Operator’s Manual: Dura Dry II Operation LNT on-line: 1. Open the inlet and the outlet valves while making certain the by-pass valve is closed. 2. Pour liquid nitrogen into the center pot. There should be liquid nitrogen in the center pot whenever the LNT is on-line and trapping high vapor pressure solvents. -

Page 26: Maintenance
Maintenance Periodic maintenance of your freeze-dryer will lead to enhanced performance and help avoid difficulties during a freeze-drying cycle. It will also result in increasing the life of the freeze-dryer. Maintenance should be performed a minimum of 4 times a year. Because system use and application varies from one facility to another you may have to perform system maintenance substantially more often. - Page 27 Maintenance Operator’s Manual: Dura Dry II Tubing All vacuum tubes must be periodically checked for cracks and leaks. The tubing ends of drain lines can contribute to leakage. Periodically, they need to be cut in order to remove dried, cracked, and stretched sections caused by insertion of the larger drain plug.
