The FT 122 Fibertec Hot Extraction Unit, for hot hydrolysis and ex-traction with built-in systems for heating and filtration, performs fibre analysis according to Weende, van Soest and other recognised methods, using externally preheated reagents.
Reliable fibre analysis
Batch handling tools improve operator safety when handling hot crucibles, processing up to 6 samples at a time. Single or sequential ex-tractions including boiling, rinsing and filtration are performed under reproducible and controlled conditions for reliable fibre analysis.
Easy sample handling
Filter crucibles are used as an integral part of the assembly during extraction, rinsing and filtration to prevent sample transfer. More versatility and reduced operational cost is achieved with crucibles that are also used as sample vessels during weighing, drying and ashing.
Simple laboratory operations
Integral extraction and filtration is made easy with the optional FT 121 Fibertec Cold Extraction Unit for solvent dehydration, lignin determination and defatting.
