Kjeldahl Dry Block Digester
Product Code : JA-SI-6514
The Kjeldahl Dry Block Digester (SKU JA-SI-6514) heats Kjeldahl digestion tubes in a cast aluminium alloy block machined with tube cavities. Heating elements are spread evenly beneath the block so each tube position reaches the same temperature. A digital temperature indicator-cum-controller sets the block from 5 C above ambient up to 450 C, to +/-2 C, and the control unit is mounted at the side.
