Multiple Extraction Positions for Versatile Applications

Choose from 2, 3, 4, or 6 position units to match your sample throughput needs. Each mantle operates independently, so you can process multiple samples simultaneously with uniform heating and individual temperature control. This flexibility is crucial for busy laboratories handling varied workloads.

Precision and Safety Built Into Every Mantle

Equipped with advanced protection features, the Mantle Type Soxhlet Extraction Unit offers overheat protection, fuses, and an earthing point to ensure user safety. The nichrome heating elements and ceramic fiber insulation provide efficient and uniform heating, while the mild steel body withstands repeated laboratory use.

Complete and Convenient Laboratory Solution

Every unit is supplied with a full set of borosilicate glassware, including flask, thimble holder, and condenser, ensuring immediate usability. Table-top mounting and a durable powder-coated finish make the unit suitable for demanding lab environments in academic, pharmaceutical, and industrial research settings.

FAQ's of Mantle Type Soxhlet Extraction Unit:

Q: How does the Mantle Type Soxhlet Extraction Unit operate?

A: This unit uses individual heating mantles for each Soxhlet flask, enabling you to run solvent extraction processes by continuously cycling solvent through a solid sample in the flask. Temperature is regulated for each position using rotary knobs, with heating capacity up to 350C.

Q: What are the benefits of multiple mantle positions in a Soxhlet extraction unit?

A: Multiple positions allow simultaneous extraction from several samples, greatly increasing laboratory throughput and efficiency. Each mantle is independently temperature controlled, accommodating varied sample requirements at once.

Q: When should I use this Soxhlet unit over other extraction methods?

A: Use this unit when you require reproducible, efficient extraction of oils, fats, pesticides, or other organics from solids, especially when working with volatile solvents and needing precise temperature control. It's ideal for routine and research applications in chemical, environmental, and pharmaceutical labs.

Q: Where can the Mantle Type Soxhlet Extraction Unit be installed?

A: Designed as a tabletop unit, it's suited for most lab benches across academic, research, quality control, and industrial laboratories. Its compact footprint makes it suitable for limited-space environments.

Q: What safety features are included in the extraction unit?

A: Key safety features include an overheat protector, fuses for electrical safety, an earthing point to prevent static build-up, and a ceramic fiber insulation barrier to minimize exterior heat and risk of burns.

Q: How do I select appropriate flask sizes for my Soxhlet extraction?

A: The unit accommodates standard flask volumes: 250 ml, 500 ml, and 1000 ml per mantle set. Select a flask size based on your sample amount and solvent requirements. Each glassware set is made from high-quality borosilicate glass for chemical and thermal resistance.

Q: What is the process for maintaining and cleaning the unit?

A: Turn off the unit and allow it to cool before cleaning. Glass components can be removed and cleaned using standard lab detergents. The powder-coated mild steel body can be wiped with a damp cloth, and periodic checks of heater and fuses are recommended for safe operation.
