This Glatt WST TF-N-30 is a fluid bed dryer — sometimes referred to as a fluidised bed dryer — a batch-process machine widely used in the pharmaceutical, chemical, and food industries to dry granules, powders, and other particulate materials by passing a controlled stream of heated air upward through the product bed, keeping the particles in suspension for efficient, even moisture removal.
Glatt is a well-established German manufacturer with a long-standing reputation for fluid bed processing equipment, serving primarily the pharmaceutical and fine-chemical sectors with drying, granulating, and coating systems.
This unit carries serial number 4428 and dates from 1985. It is constructed throughout in stainless steel grade 1.4301 (AISI 304), making it suitable for product-contact applications where hygiene and corrosion resistance are required. The working volume is 100 litres, and the machine is configured for batch operation. Three pans are included, each measuring 500 mm in diameter by 300 mm in height, and a pan-mounted trolley on wheels is provided for easy transport and loading.
Air handling is managed by an integrated fan delivering a capacity of 1,500 m³/h. The drying air can be heated by steam at up to 3 bar, with a thermal output of 50,000 kcal/h. The drive motor is rated at 7.5 kW, running on 380 V at 2,920 rpm. The unit is equipped with both an inlet filter and an outlet filter; the outlet filter has a surface area of 4 m², while the inlet filter surface area is not specified. Mechanical filter cleaning is fitted. A timer and switchgear cabinet are also included, though the switchgear is supplied as-is.
