Independent controls for each position make processing multiple samples straightforward, improving laboratory productivity and reproducibility for fat or solvent analysis.
Precision and Safety CombinedEach heating unit is controlled individually with an ON/OFF switch and indicator lamp, regulated by either an energy regulator or a thermostat, depending on the model. Advanced safety features-including glass wool insulation, thermal fuse, and over-temperature protection-guard both operator and samples during use.
Robust and Adaptable ConstructionConstructed from either powder-coated mild steel or stainless steel, this unit is built for longevity and stability. The design accommodates various standard glassware sizes with aluminum or brass tube holders, suitable for different laboratory requirements. The bench-top arrangement ensures easy integration into existing lab setups.
FAQ's of SOXHLET EXTRACTION UNIT (Mantel type) :
Q: How does the Soxhlet Extraction Unit (Mantel type) operate?
A: The unit functions by independently heating glassware flasks with mantels, allowing solvents to circulate and extract compounds from solid samples. Each position is controlled separately, providing precise temperature management suited for laboratory extractions.
Q: What safety features does this unit offer during operation?
A: This Soxhlet Extraction Unit is equipped with thermal fuses and over-temperature protection to prevent overheating, alongside glass wool insulation to keep heating elements safe and efficient during extended use.
