Soxhlet extraction is ideal for extracting soluble analytes from a solid sample into an organic solvent. Unlike traditional wire or sand baths which are used to heat receiving flasks, the ROT-X-TRACT-S uses a water steam bath which provides gentle even heat to delicate samples.
The ROT-X-TRACT-S rotary Soxhlet extractor can accommodate up to 8 or 10 Soxhlet extractors. The bath cover disc holes can accommodate round sample flasks from 125 ml-1 L. A wide range of sample sizes and quantities make this instrument ideal for Soxhlet extraction of samples in any lab.
Advantages:
Conserves valuable bench space: all samples are arranged in a circle
Easy sample access: the instrument rotates allowing all samples to be accessed from the front
Fewer connections: one water supply line in, one drain line out
