Product catalog summary
Overview: The FOSS Total Fat solution, comprising the Soxtec™ 8000 and Hydrotec™ 8000 units, automates total fat analysis by integrating acid hydrolysis and solvent extraction into a single process. This system minimizes human error, reduces costs, and enhances sample throughput.
Key Components:
  • Hydrotec™ 8000: Performs automated acid hydrolysis, breaking fat bonds. It features a 12-sample holder and uses a pump for chemical handling, enhancing safety and efficiency.
  • Soxtec™ 8000: Conducts solvent extraction with a fully automated system, including boiling, rinsing, solvent recovery, and auto shutdown. It supports up to 12 positions and allows for high throughput.
  • Hydrocap Filter: A patented filter that retains samples from weighing through hydrolysis to extraction, reducing transfer errors and improving throughput.
Specifications:
  • Soxtec™ 8000: Dimensions: 640 x 350 x 630 mm; Weight: 35 kg; Power: 1500-1800 W; Sample size: 0.5-2g; Extraction time: 45-60 min; Solvent volume: 70-90 ml; Capacity: 6/12 positions.
  • Hydrotec™ 8000: Dimensions: 430 x 340 x 310 mm; Weight: 18 kg; Power: 1660-1860 W; Sample size: 0.5-2g; Hydrolysis time: 2 hours; Capacity: 12 samples.
Installation Requirements: Both units require specific voltage settings, water supply for cooling, and a fume hood for ventilation. They are designed for indoor use at altitudes up to 2000 m and temperatures between 5-40 °C.
