Basic distillation system
VAPODEST 10
Basic unit for the automatic rapid distillation of e.g. Kjeldahl digestion solutions in Kjeldahl flasks (250, 500, and 750 ml with wide neck opening) or Kjeldatherm digestion glasses (250, 400, or 800 ml). VAPODEST 10 is the ideal instrument for laboratories with a low sample throughput but a high demand for reliability, user-friendliness and safety. This automatic distillation unit is the basic model of the well proven and tested VAPODEST range, which now comprises 6 models.
System configuration
- Addition of NaOH via timer and/or push button
- Selectable distillation time
- Automatic steam generator with adjustable output, maintenance-free,
with pressure control and overheating protection - Lucent protective door with safety switch
Versatile applications
VAPODEST watersteam rapid distillation systems are used worldwide, e.g. for the determination of nitrate, nitrite, ammonium, Kjeldahl digestion solutions, volatile acids, sulphur dioxide, ethanol, formaldehyde, phenols as well as other compounds. The fields of application can be found in various matrices, e.g. in:
- Food
- Feed
- Luxury food (beer, wine, liqueur, spirits)
- Cosmetics
- Detergents
- Environmental samples (plants, water, soils, sewage sludge)
- Rotten material from biogas plants and many more
