KryoAir is a revolutionary air-based refrigeration system for freeze dryers designed and manufactured by IMA Life. In fact, this system not only avoids the use of high-GWP gases, but ensures consistent cooling output across varying temperatures for freeze-drying applications with an almost maintenance-free concept. IMA Life collaborated with the US-based company ACT, along with MIRAI Intex of the Czech Republic in developing this revolutionary system.

At its core lies the air cycle technology powered by a turbo-compressor-expander, developed and supplied by MIRAI Intex, augmented by the revolutionary Cold Thermal Energy Storage (CTES) system from ACT, a true game-changer in the field. Unlike anything seen before, CTES harnesses the power of phase-transitioning compounds to maximise capacity per unit of volume. This breakthrough innovation not only enhances efficiency but also enables the turbo-compressor-expander technology to support intensive and discontinuous energy applications, like freeze dryers.

Pairing CTES with the MIRAI Cold refrigeration machine, KryoAir transforms a well-established technology into a powerhouse of clean energy utilisation. This dynamic synergy allows KryoAir to achieve extreme low temperatures with unprecedented efficiency, all while maintaining a compact and reliable design.

The benefits of KryoAir extend beyond environmental sustainability and safety. Its single-stage, oil-free turbo compressor-expander ensures reliability and durability, requiring minimal maintenance. Moreover, its ability to deliver consistent cooling output across varying temperatures sets a new standard in refrigeration technology.
