Kjeldahl Distiller

The distillation unit is used to perform nitrogen analysis and protein determination according to Kjeldahl method in food & feed industry and other applications in environmental and chemical industries after having digested the sample accurately. The Kjeldahl distillation unit UDK 129 runs automatically, after setting sodium hydroxide addition and distillation time using the LCD display in order to get reliable and accurate results. The high-precision pumps ensure constant accurate dosing of reagents and the cooling water is automatically stopped during pauses, thus cutting down on its consumption.

FEATURES:
~ Extremely reliable quantification of nitrogen content and protein determination
~ Operate across a wide variety of samples
~ TEMSÖ technology with major advantages for ecology and economy Conformity with multiple standards protocols AOAC, ISO, EPA, DIN etc.

The VELP UDK 129 Kjeldahl Distillation Unit is an entry-level Kjeldahl distillation unit for your analyses concerning different applications such as determining ammoniacal nitrogen, protein determination, nitrogen content (Kjeldahl or direct alkaline distillation), nitric nitrogen (after reduction/Devarda), phenols, volatile acids, cyanides and alcohol content.
