“Everybody can operate it, it’s clean and we have less contact with chemicals”
Learn how Denofa soya crushing plant in Norway have achieved more consistent results with automated Kjeltec™, while saving time and labour.
FOSS Tecator line Digestion systems allow fully automated digestion for convenient, safe and flexible Kjeldahl analysis. Two way PC communication supports traceability and GLP. Capable of handling eight or twenty tubes.
Free up time for other tasks with fully automated digestion. Convenient, safe and flexible operation backed by data and application logging.
Feed, feed ingredients, forage, pet food, food, food ingredients, grain, cereal, meat, meat products, fish, fish products and dairy products.
Kjeldahl digestions, chemical oxygen demand and other reflux chemistries and trace metal analysis by AAS or ICP instruments.
For Kjeldahl digestions the 2501 Scrubber Unit should always be considered for safe and efficient neutralisation of corrosive gases. This replaces the water aspirator, supplied as standard.
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.
Auto systems have memory for up to 127 FOSS Applications and 127 User Applications. There are currently more than 80 FOSS applications in the CD Library supplied.
