The FT 122 Fibertec™

The FT 122 Fibertec™ is a manual fibre determination system for simple determination of Crude Fibre, Detergent fibre and more, according to standard reference crucible methods such as Weende, van Soest etc.

The FT 122 Fibertec™

Overview

Value

An easy way to secure consistent analytical results with repeatable determination of fibre content according to Weende, van Soest and other recognised methods.

Sample Type

Feed, Feed ingredients, Forage, Pet food, Grain, Cereal and Oil seeds

Parameters

Crude Fibre (CF), Neutral Detergent Fibre (NDF), Acid Detergent Fibre (ADF) and Acid Detergent Lignin (ADL)

Features

The FT 121 Fibertec cold extraction unit
The FT 121 Fibertec cold extraction unit

The FT 121 Fibertec™ Cold Extraction Unit can be used in combination with the fully automated FIbertec™ 8000 for de-fatting samples and extraction at ambient temperatures and solvent dehydration of fibre residues.

Batch handling tools
Batch handling tools

Batch handling tools improve operator safety when handling hot crucibles, processing up to 6 samples at a time.

Crucible system
Crucible system

Both units, FT 121 and FT 122 Fibertec™, are adapted to the same crucible system that permits the sample, whenever required, to be dried and weighed between extractions. In the system the samples are handled in specially designed filter crucibles, which are used both as an integral part of an extraction assembly during extraction, rinsing and filtering, and as a sample vessel during the weighing, drying and ashing steps.
