Drying
• Once the freeze time has elapsed,
it enters the rst of two “Drying”
modes. The clock is red to signify
drying mode. Below the clock reads
“>2500mTorr”. Once the vacuum
pressure pulls under 2500mT,
you will begin to see the vacuum
pressure fall, getting lower.
• Below the clock you can also see
the elapsed time of the current
cycle. This can be very helpful if
you are trying to track cycle times
for your own record keeping
so that you can better estimate
future batch times. The maximum
time it will be in this rst of two
drying stages is 30 hours. Once
it drops below 500mT, and stays
there for one hour, it will skip
what is remaining of the 30 hours.
• The blue clock signies we are in
the freezing mode.
• Beneath the clock is the date
and the elapsed timer (how
long the freeze has been going).
Be sure to keep an eye on this
elapsed timer if you are looking
to track a total batch time. This
information can be helpful in
diagnosing problems as well.
