The FD 2.5 Food Dehydrator is a small yet highly efficient food dehydrator that can deliver the drying capabilities of large units but has been built for small batch processing. Whether for initial industrial production (moving your operation up from several table top dehydrators) or as a lab/operations test unit for scaling product, it delivers large unit capabilities, including an operating temperature range of 80-160°F. It holds one standard bakery rack with 20-40 trays of product and uses the company's energy efficient Heat Pump Technology, which delivers lower operating costs due to its high energy efficiency (up to 60 percent reduction in energy costs versus conventional dryers.)
