DT 208 & 220 Digestor™

Digestion systems for Kjeldahl analysis consist of a digestion block and a tube rack. The digestion blocks are insulated to minimise heat transfer to the surroundings and allow fast, even heating for good working conditions and minimal energy consumption.

DT 208 & 220 Digestor™

Overview

Value

Full integration with Kjeltec systems for efficient and cost effective operations. Accessories that reduce handling hazards with minimum bench space.

Sample Type

Feed, feed ingredients, forage, pet food, food, food ingredients, grain, cereal, meat, meat products, fish, fish products and dairy products.

Parameters

Kjeldahl digestions, chemical oxygen demand and other reflux chemistries, trace metal analysis by AAS or ICP instruments.

Features

SR 210 Scrubber Unit
SR 210 Scrubber Unit

For Kjeldahl digestions the SR 210 Scrubber Unit should always be considered for safe and efficient neutralisation of corrosive gases. This replaces the water aspirator, supplied as standard.

Exhaust manifolds
Exhaust manifolds

All models are delivered with a tube rack with integrated heat shields. They should always be combined with a matching exhaust manifold designed for each Digestion Unit facilitating fume removal, or reflux head and test tubes – 100 ml, 250 ml or 400 ml volume.

Models

The Digestor™ series consists of four models: the 2508, 2520, DT 208 and DT 220 for flexible and safe Kjeldahl digestion with different levels of automation.
