The KT 200 Kjeltec™ Distillation unit provides a simple and reliable solution for safe and semi-automatic distillation for protein determination. The possibility to pre-program alkali addition and distillation time supports the production of accurate results independent of operator.
Simple, safe and reliable analysis according to official standards for accurate results independent of operator.
Food, feed, feed ingredients, forage, pet food, grain, cereal, oil seeds, meat, meat products, milk, dairy products, beer and beer ingredients.
Nitrogen, protein, Non Protein Nitrogen (NPN), and volatiles (SO2, TVBN and more).
A high accuracy bellows pump gives long term stability in delivery of the alkali. The unit is equipped with a wide range of safety features including safety door, plus level pins and overpressure sensors for the steam generator. The door completely covers the area in front of the operator and the unit cannot be operated with the door open. The drip tray can easily be removed for cleaning.
Official and accurate procedures (ISO, AOAC, EPA, DIN) simplify validation.
The patented SAfE* technology improves safety by a mixing procedure, reducing the exothermic reaction between alkali and acid during distillation and removing the need for manual pre-dilution. *Steam Addition for Equilibration
