Overview
The DET-GRAS-N Soxhlet Extractor is similar to the Tecator Soxtec 2045 and Soxtec 2050 for extraction of fats and soluble substances that will dissolve in solvents. Based on Soxhlet methods by Randall, the DET-GRAS-N extracts fats (oils and other substances) from the sample by dissolving them in a solvent. Compared to the classic standard Soxhlet method, a time saving of between 30 - 70% can be obtained due to a two stage extraction process and the high speed in obtaining high temperature.
Typical fats determinations are in meat products, animal fodder, prepared foods, fish or other foodstuff. The DET-GRAS-N Extractor equipment is also suitable for the extraction of soluble compounds including environmental contaminants such as dioxins and PCB's.
Features of the DET-GRAS-N Soxhlet Extractor:
- Heating by protected electric heater, distributed throughout the radiator surface that provides homogeneous heating throughout the samples
- Electrical safety according to IP65
- Robust temperature control by a durable thermocouple
- Safety over temperature device
- Outer case made from solvents resistant epoxy coated steel
- Compatible with most common solvents: Petroleum ether, Diethyl ether, hexane, acetone, acetonitrile, etc
- Comes complete with 2 sets of seals, adapters for different solvents types,
- LCD display of 2 lines of 20 characters
- Keypad with 4 push buttons to select temperature, time and programs
- Typical extraction time (food fats) 50 minutes
- Extraction times << boiling >>: from 0 to 999 minutes
- Extraction time << rinsing >>: from 0 to 999 minutes
- Time to recuperate solvents: from 0 to 999 minutes
