ANKOM HCI Hydrolysis System

Part #

HCl
HClI
Automated Total Fat Extraction

The ANKOM HCl Hydrolysis System provides an easy method for performing the hydrolysis step in total fat/oil analysis. Filter Bag Technology prevents sample transfer errors and allows for batch hydrolysis of up to 15 samples at a time, reducing both labor and sample costs.  

The technician inserts samples into the vessel, adds the acid solution, and follows the screen prompts. Once the program is selected, the system automatically completes the process and rinses the samples. 

  • Automated high-volume hydrolysis
  • Closed system reduces acid exposure, increasing safety
  • No technician monitoring needed
  • Automatic rinse cycles
  • Small footprint
  • Used with the ANKOM XT15 Extractor & ANKOM RD Rapid Dryer
