Overview

The ANKOMXT15 Extractor provides an Official Procedure for efficient and economical solvent extractions. The ANKOMXT15 Extractor has been subjected to rigorous testing over a broad range of sample types. Fat ranges from 0% to 100% have been determined using this procedure.

Filter bags serve to simplify handling and enable batch processing. The XT15’s Automatic Solvent Recycling and Activated Charcoal Filter elminates the need for a vent hood and reduces costs.  If using solvents such as diethyl ether please ask about seal upgrades.

  • Official Crude Fat Extraction (AOCS Am 5-04)
  • Totally Automatic Operation
  • Up to 150 Extractions per Day
  • Microprocessor Controlled with LCD Readout
  • Solvent Recovery at a rate of ~97%
  • Solvent Usage per Sample ~ 0.5 ml
  • No Vent-hood Required

 

APPLICATIONS & INFORMATION

The ANKOMXT15 Extractor provides an Official Procedure for efficient and economical solvent extractions.The ANKOMXT15 Extractor has been subjected to rigorous testing over a broad range of sample types. Fat ranges from 0% to 100% have been determined using this procedure.

The XT15’s low cost provides an affordable high-volume solution. Batch processing allows for the extraction of up to 15 samples at a time and is capable of more than 150 samples per day. Also 90°C temperatures accelerate extraction kinetics, reducing most extraction times to under 40 minutes.  If using solvents such as diethyl ether please ask about seal upgrades.  There is no need to replace seals when using Petroleum Ether or Hexane.

Filter bags serve to simplify handling and enable batch processing. The XT15’s Automatic Solvent Recycling and Activated Charcoal Filter elminates the need for a vent hood and reduces costs.
