Drawell DW-SOX406 Fat Analyzer

Drawell DW-SOX406 Fat Analyzer

Product overview

The DW-SOX406 Fat Analyzer provides efficient soxhlet extraction for up to six samples at the same time. It integrates soaking, extraction, heating, condensation, and solvent recovery into one streamlined process.

The Drawell DW-SOX406 Fat Analyzer supports research, pharmaceutical, environmental, food, industrial, and quality-control laboratories. Scientific China provides model selection, configuration review, export coordination, and formal quotations.

Key features

• Integral metal heating, wide scope and high precision of temperature control.
• Electric circuit is isolated from the extraction space, ensuring device security.
• Timer and timing functions are available.
• Over-temperature alarming and timer reminding functions are available.
• Triple alarms i.e. sound, light, LCD screen word prompts are available.
• Abundant interface contents give simultaneous display of given temperature, actual temperature, given time and heating time.
• Intelligent man-machine dialogue control system.
• Exclusive air insulation technique leaves the case in room temperature, and has thermal insulation and temperature maintenance two functions.
• 4.3” LCD screen and microcomputer control system are adopted.
• The mainstream method is the Soxhlet extraction method, including fully automatic Soxhlet and crude fat determination. It is suitable for solid and semi-solid samples such as grain and oil, feed, meat, eggs, dairy products, nuts and Chinese medicinal herbs. Liquid oils can be tested directly with simplified pre-treatment.
• Low results are usually caused by incomplete extraction, caked samples, insufficient extraction time or solvent volatilization. High results are mainly due to moisture in samples, co-extracted impurities, undried solvent or residual contaminants in crucibles.
• Standard reagents are petroleum ether and diethyl ether. Both are flammable and volatile. All operations must be performed in a fume hood; open flames and direct high-temperature baking are prohibited. The equipment shall be grounded for static prevention, and waste liquid shall be sealed and recycled separately.
• Key steps include crushing and sieving, drying to remove moisture, and wrapping samples with fat-free filter paper. Excessively large sample particles hinder fat separation, and moisture will co-dissolve with solvents, leading to significant test errors.
• Fully automatic equipment can automatically complete soaking, refluxing, rinsing and solvent recovery with stable temperature control, high recovery rate and low solvent consumption. Manual devices require complicated operations, unstable temperature control and long testing time, only suitable for simple testing of a small number of samples.

Applications

• DW-SOX406 Fat Analyzer can quickly separate one substance from solid or semi-solid mixtures, can determine the soluble organic compounds contained in foods, feeds, medicines, soil, sludge, polymers, fiber products, petrochemical products, detergents, rubber, plastics and other materials.
• Food and Grain Industry
• Determines the crude fat content in grains (rice, corn), meat, dairy products, oilseeds, and processed foods for nutrition labeling, quality control, and process optimization, conforming to national standards such as GB 5009.6.
• Feed and Agricultural Research
• Analyzes the fat ratio of feed ingredients and finished products to guide animal nutrition programs; monitors seed oil content to assist crop breeding and assess grain storage quality (fatty acid value).
• Pharmaceuticals and Chemicals
• Detects volatile oils in traditional Chinese medicine, fat impurities in pharmaceutical excipients, stability of cosmetic emulsions, and extracts and analyzes soluble organic compounds in samples such as rubber, plastics, and soil.
• Medical Health and Sports Rehabilitation
• Measures body fat percentage, visceral fat, and muscle mass using bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) or dual-energy X-ray ablation (DXA) techniques for obesity diagnosis, chronic disease management, fitness guidance, and clinical nutritional assessment.
