Infrared speeddigester for nitrogen determination and chemical oxygen demand
In laboratories dealing with nitrogen determination and chemical oxygen demand, fast and reproducible digestion processes are essential for accurate and efficient analysis. Traditional methods may involve lengthy digestion times, delays in sample throughput, and challenges in handling multiple samples with different requirements.
Accelerates digestion and increases sample throughput
The SpeedDigester K-425 / K-436 / K-439 by Buchi is an advanced infrared digester designed to expedite the digestion process for nitrogen determination by the Kjeldahl method and chemical oxygen demand (COD) determination. These digesters provide quick heat transfer via infrared heaters, reducing digestion times and enabling faster sample processing. The continuous addition of H2O2 through capillary funnels enhances the digestion speed. The SpeedDigester series supports both Kjeldahl and reflux digestion, accommodating various sample tube volumes from 100 mL to 500 mL. It includes versatile features such as individual heating chamber operation, manual temperature settings, and sealed suction modules for safe fume handling. The SpeedDigester K-439 model is equipped with a display and controlled temperature programs, facilitating precise and automated processes. Compliant with ISO 6060, these units are suitable for diverse applications in environmental analysis, food industry, and more.
