Soxhlet extraction is ideal for extracting soluble analytes from a solid sample into an organic solvent. Unlike traditional wire or sand baths which are used to heat receiving flasks, the ROT-X-TRACT-S uses a water steam bath which provides gentle even heat to delicate samples.
The ROT-X-TRACT-S rotary Soxhlet extractors can accommodate up to 8 or 10 Soxhlet extractors. The bath cover disc holes can accommodate round sample flasks from 125 ml-1 L. Models 13070 and 13090 can accommodate smaller 250 mL flasks, while model 13008 can accommodate larger 500 mL flasks. A wide range of sample sizes and quantities make this instrument ideal for Soxhlet extraction of samples in any lab.
