No need to monitor - performs digestions automatically.

• Be more flexible with higher temperature - heats to 450 °C
• Get up and running quicker - block heats faster to get digesting faster
• No need to buy separate glassware for your system - glassware compatable with SimpleDist® system

Don't struggle to perform TKN (Total Kjeldahl Nitogen), the controller is programmed to ramp the temperature of the block to 160 °C and hold that temperature for 60 minutes. Then the block temperature automatically ramps to 380 °C over the course of 60 minutes and holds that temperature for an additional 30 minutes. At that point the block shuts off to end the digestion. Temperature, ramp rate, and hold times are easily programmed for other proceedures. Up to 20 steps can be incorporated for each digestion proceedure.

To withstand the highly corrosive nature of the TKN proceedure, the high-temperature block is encased in 316 stainless steel. The tube rack and cooling rack are also 316 stainless steel. The controller is independent from the block and should be placed outside the fume hood to reduce the likelihood of acid damage.
