The UDK 142 is the automatic
solution developed by Velp Scientifica in the
Distillation units range.The distillation units of
the UDK series are designed for diversified and flexible
use, including applications such as determining
ammoniacal nitrogen, protein nitrogen, (Kjeldahl or
direct alkaline distillation), nitric nitrogen (after
reduction), phenols, volatile fatty acids, cyanides,
alcohol content, etc. according to official procedures.
A distillation unit entirely automated in its various
phases of operation, with high reliability and safety
characteristics.
The patented steam generator using deionized water
allows fast or slow distillations to be carried out,
depending on the product to be analyzed.
The supply water feed is automatically stopped during
pauses, thus cutting down on its consumption.
The instrument is equipped with a system that recognizes
when the sliding protection is not closed, when there is
not enough cooling water, the reagents reserve and when
the test tube is present, without which the instrument
does not start operation.
Use of an innovative system allows various sizes of test
tubes to be used and 500 ml Kjeldahl flasks to be
housed.
