VirTis, an SP Industries Inc. company, has announced the availability of the modern control upgrades for a wide variety of older freeze dryers.

The mechanical components of most freeze dryers are typically very rugged and stable and can last in excess of 30 years with good preventative maintenance and care. However, controller platforms are typically updated on a regular basis offering ever increasing functionality to the freeze dryer. If your freeze dryer controls are old and obsolete but the mechanical components are still operating well, a Virtis controller upgrade will give your system a cost effective new lease of life.

VirTis provides upgrades and refurbishments for all of its controllers including Sentry, Wizard, Encore and Maestro thereby allowing customers or operators of recently purchased used equipment to have the most current technology at a minimum cost. In facilities where multiple freeze dryers are in operation and a single control platform is advantageous a VirTis controller upgrade program can be implemented on both the VirTis dryers as well as other brands of freeze dryers.

Control upgrades range from simple operator control to full 21CFR compliant PLC's and fully customized software. As part of the controller upgrade systems are typically fully rewired, inspected and tested to be "like new" by the end of the upgrade process.
