BENEFITS
The Kjeldahl distillation unit UDK 129 runs automatically, after setting sodium hydroxide addition and distillation time using the LCD displayin order to get reliable and accurate results. The high-precision pumps ensure constant accurate dosing of reagents and the cooling water is automatically stopped during pauses, thus cutting down on its consumption.
Technologically advanced, the distillation unit UDK 129 includes many features that ensure efficient and reliable distillation, far beyond expectations of an ordinary entry level unit.
Kjeldahl Distillation Units – TEMS™ Technology
UDK Kjeldahl distillation units work with the innovative TEMS™ benefits, for huge savings.
Time Saving – Fast and frequent analyses; no heating delay between runs
Energy Saving – Cooling water consumption starting from only 0.5 l/min; excellent insulation
Money Saving – Cost reduction is substantial, in line with reduced power consumption
Space Saving – The extremely compact footprint saves useful laboratory bench space
Kjeldahl Distillation Units – Exclusive Titanium Condenser
VELP Scientifica has developed and patented the innovative titanium condenser able to ensure high performance and considerable water savings (from 0.5 l/min).
The graph shows the high efficiency of the titanium condenser compared to the traditional glass one available on the market. The titanium condenser ensures that distillate temperature always remains below the safe threshold value (35 °C), as indicated in the Kjeldahl method.
Kjeldahl Distillation Units – Patented Steam Generator
The patented steam generator used by UDK Kjeldahl Distillation Units offers unique performance, being a patented solution
Rapid (p)re-heating time
