Steam Distillation Unit Kjeldahl Semi-Automatic “Pro-Nitro S”

DETERMINATION OF ORGANIC NITROGEN (KJELDAHL METHOD).
AUTOMATIC BORACIC AND NaOH DOSAGE, SAMPLE DRAINAGE AND TEMPORIZED STOP.

Semi-automatic steam distillation Kjeldahl unit. Simple secure systematic analysis suitable for medium to large throughput of samples.

FEATURES
Steam distillation system. Compact steam generator with safety over temperature thermostat and over pressure device. Safety door, the system will not operate if the door is open.
“Tube in place” sensor: if the tube is not located, the dosing process of NaOH will not take place.
Universal adapter for digestion/distillation tubes MACRO (Ø 42mm) and MICRO (Ø 26 mm).
Small footprint, saves bench top space: The H2O, NaOH and H3BO3 reservoirs are placed within the unit.
Empty Digestion/ Distillation tube system.
Stainless steel case with reinforced ABS plastic front.
Green LED 2 digit display.
Distillation program: (Add NaOH, Add Boric Acid, Distillation time, Empty tube.)
Automatic distillate titration kit. (See accessories).

AUTOMATIC
Single push button to start the distillation cycle:
– Boric acid dosing
– Start distillation.
– NaOH dosing
– Stop Distillation (Programmed time transpired.)
– Acoustic indicator at the end of the cycle.

ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS
To complete Kjeldahl Nitrogen analysis a digestion block is also required.
