Automatic Kjeldahl Digester

The VELP DKL 8 (8-position for 250 ml tubes, Ø 42 mm) fully Automatic Kjeldahl Digestion Unit for nitrogen analysis and protein determination incorporates the revolutionary TEMS technology for unprecedented Savings in terms of Time, Energy - as much as 35%, Money and Space. All regular functions are fully automated, including lowering the test tubes into the heating block, lifting the tubes to expedite cooling and separating the suction manifold from the tube rack, enabling the rack to be slid out and replaced by another to start the next run.
