FAQs of Kjeldahl Digestion Unit & Distillation Unit ( Combined):
Q: How does the Kjeldahl Digestion & Distillation Unit benefit laboratory protein and nitrogen analysis?
A: This combined unit streamlines the Kjeldahl method by integrating both digestion and distillation processes, which increases efficiency and reduces downtime. It allows for simultaneous processing of up to six samples, ensuring consistency in protein and nitrogen determinations for food, feed, water, fertilizer, and soil samples.
Q: What is the process for using the Kjeldahl unit for sample analysis?
A: Samples are placed in compatible digestion tubes (100 ml or 300 ml). The digestion process occurs in the heated block, with temperatures ranging up to 450C for optimal breakdown. After digestion, distilled samples are collected using the 500 ml flasks, supported by a robust cooling system requiring a minimum of 1.5 L/min water flow. The procedure can be operated manually or set with a timer, as per laboratory protocol.
Q: Where is this combined Kjeldahl unit typically used?
A: It is primarily deployed in laboratories performing protein and nitrogen analysis, including academic research, food and agricultural testing, fertilizer quality assessment, and environmental monitoring. Offering portability within lab spaces, it suits routine analysis and specialized investigations.
Q: What safety features are provided in this Kjeldahl unit?
A: The equipment includes over-temperature protection, a splash guard, and a fume removal system to minimize exposure to chemical vapors. The fume duct, made of polypropylene, ensures safe passage of exhaust gases, while eye-shielding glass protects users during operation.
Q: When should the cooling water supply be established during operation?
A: Cooling water should be maintained continuously during the distillation phase to ensure proper condensation and prevent overheating. A minimum flow of 1.5 L/min through the inlet and outlet is required for efficient operation.
Q: How accurate are the temperature controls on this unit?
A: The analog temperature indicator displays actual temperature, and the heater block maintains accuracy with a variance of 1C, crucial for reliable Kjeldahl digestion and distillation outcomes.
