The CryoDry CD8 Fixed 5 Heated Shelf Stack is a replacement or additional heated shelf configuration designed specifically for the CryoDry CD8 freeze dryer. With five fixed heated shelves, this shelf stack offers a practical, space-efficient configuration for food preservation, freeze drying, and other applications requiring controlled shelf heating.
Each shelf measures 465 × 210 mm, providing a total shelf area of 4,880 cm² across the five-shelf configuration. The 33 mm inter-shelf distance provides adequate spacing for product loading and effective air circulation during the freeze-drying process.
The fixed heated shelf design provides controlled heating throughout the drying cycle, supporting consistent and uniform freeze-drying performance. The 5-shelf configuration is particularly suited to applications using deeper 20 mm freeze-drying trays, allowing more vertical product clearance than the higher-density 7- and 9-shelf configurations.
The CD8 Fixed 5 Heated Shelf Stack is supplied as a complete shelf-stack assembly and is ideal as a replacement for an existing shelf stack or as an alternative configuration for compatible CryoDry CD8 systems. CryoDry offers the 5-shelf configuration as one of its CD8 shelf-stack options, alongside 7- and 9-shelf configurations.
