Behr Labor-Technik InKjel 625 Wet Digestion System
The digestion units of the behrotest® InKjel series of infrared rapid digestion instruments for nitrogen determination according to Kjeldahl are equipped with a high-performance infrared heater. The quality and position of the Behr infrared heater guarantee the user identical heating phases and digestion temperatures in all sample positions. This also applies to the double-row arrangement of racks for 12 samples. The glass digestion vessels hang in the rack and are not placed in the digestion unit, so the digestion units are less susceptible to breakage than an aluminium heating block. This makes the behrotest® InKjel the ideal digestion system for nitrogen determination according to Kjeldahl and for other high-temperature digestions. In Kjeldahl digestions the temperature is set by the boiling point of sulphuric acid. Direct heating of the samples by the infrared heater avoids the endlessly long heat-up times required with conventional heating block systems. High-quality quartz heaters, instead of the usual tubular steel heaters, ensure particularly homogeneous heating in all sample positions.
