Freeze Dryer:
Application:
With a useable length of 6 m and an inner diameter of
1,25 m it is ideal for restoration of different artifacts. Maximum
freezing temperature of - 55° is suitable for most projects.
Waggons:
As standard, the freeze dryer comes with 3 waggons each
having 3 shelves. Three detachable racks allow a simultaneously
extraction of the waggons for examonations of the process (requires
at least 15 m of free space). For smaller projects, the
waggons/racks can be used separately.
Closing the freeze dryer:
The end lid is fully detachable and it is fixed on a waggon during
the mounting.
Freeze Dried Boat:
The freeze dryer was used for restoration of the Norwegian BC6
boat, which is dated back in 1595.
The boat is exhibited at DNB's headquarters in Oslo and can be seen from the sidewalk. You may have a closer look on a very interesting animation and photos here.
