HydrolEx - Model H-506 -Acid Hydrolysis System

Acid hydrolysis prior to extraction is an essential work step during for total fat determination, for which matrix structures enclosing the fat fraction of food and feed samples are broken up. With HydrolEx H-506, you assure conformity with official regulations for the declaration of total fat content. Obtain highly reproducible results with a standardized and comprehensive procedure. Comfortably work with large sample volumes of up to 10 grams of sample, for achieving accurate results, independent of fat content or homogeneity.

Improve your safety by avoiding exposure to harmful fumes with effective and long-lasting FKM sealings. Convenient transfer of the hydrolysate eliminates any contact with the sample.

Comfortably operate the complementary and robust HydrolEx H-506 with a lift device that supports the smooth movement of the sample rack. Make your rinsing more efficient with specialized rinsing funnels. Achieve complete sample transfer and high recoveries thanks to fast and convenient filtration. Easily transfer the hydrolysed sample into the Soxhlet extraction chamber with reusable glass sample tubes.

Integrated workflow

Perfect match between hydrolysis and fat extraction. The specialized glass samples tube fits perfectly into the FatExtractor E-500.

Specialized hydrolysis vessels

Unique hydrolysis vessels reduce foaming of even large sample volumes.

Smooth filtration

Smooth filtration and rinsing of six samples in parallel is made possible thanks to a powerful vacuum source, optimized glass parts, as well as individual stop cocks that can interrupt the vacuum at each single position.

Rinsing funnels

The innovative rinsing funnels facilitate rinsing of sample vessels and guarantee the quantitative transfer from the vessels into the glass sample tube for easy handling and reproducible results.

Made for large sample volumes

The hydrolysis vessels can take up large sample volumes, both liquids and solids, of up to 10 g. Large sample amounts ensure reproducible result for low-fat or very inhomogeneous samples.
