Kjeldahl Analysis Distillation & Titration
www.liquidline.se
Kjeldahl - Consider
• Automatic Addition of Receiver Solution • Future Possibilities (upgrade to Analyzer)
• Level of automation • Requirement for Traceability • Requirement for Precision and Less Errors • Level of Safety • Level of Convenience/Speed

Adaptive Workflow
Help if problems arise with OPSIS LiquidLINE
Maintenance Program
Simplifying Data handling With Flexible Wireless
Communications
ISO 17025 Prepared
Increasing Precision of your results with
Predictive Titration (rsd below 0.75%)
Auto Blank
www.liquidline.se
Predictive Titration System
*Patent pending
Predictive Titration*
• OPSIS LiquidLINE has developed it’s own titrator, specifically optimized for the Kjeldahl method:
• A new unique method to integrate color detection with dosing from Burette
• Dosing based on relative distance to end-point
• This, together with several other improvements, leads to lower rsd
www.liquidline.se
Wireless Information
• Transfer Weights/Results directly in Microsoft Excel • Use iPad or iPhone* • Use Mac or PC program*
* Launch June 2016
Freedom to Use as you want, No extra cost
www.liquidline.se
Maintenance Costs
• Problems can always happen and with Kjeldahl there is no system that will last forever…
• Question is what you do WHEN you need help?
www.liquidline.se
Maintenance
• Before Leaving Factory – Component Tracking (QR Codes) and Component testing – All instruments tested prior to shipping (Certificate Supplied)
• At installation
– Performance can be verified and checked vs factory at installation
• Problems?
– Specific Managers Menu for calibrations – Teamviewer + Internet + Wireless for
OPSIS LiquidLINE remote access – Logfiles can be retrieved – Advanced Service menus allows full control
of the instrument

Digestion Digestors & Scrubber
www.liquidline.se
Digestion - Consider • Level of automation
1. Only temp and time, on and off 2. Automatic step program and/or alarms
• Good for water analyses and organic samples • Good for notifying when personnel is doing other things
3. Automatic switch-off or not • Safety when leaving lab room
4. Automatic cooling of rack • No need to monitor the digestion step
• Quality and Analytical Concerns
• Environmental Concerns
1. Fumes via exhaust but thereafter directly in the air 2. Fumes via exhaust and thereafter Water Ejector 3. Fumes via exhaust and Scrubber
All OPSIS LiquidLINE Digestors have 1-3
Digestors Advanced
have also 4
An OPSIS LiquidLINE Scrubber is always good investment

www.liquidline.se
High Safety and Automatic
• Adding Flexibility and Safety – Security with high standards against dust, liquids and explosives – EX classified valves and Pressurized Main Electronics – Secure sealing, using 200 kg pressure to achieve more than 90% recovery – Operator safety is important with protection shield, closed addition of solvents
and easy removal of recovery
• Completely Automatic
Boil Rinse Dry
automatic
easy to add solvent

Hydrolysis HydROC
www.liquidline.se
The HydROC Benefits • Save costs with clever Filter technology
– HydROC Filter can be used several times – Reduce the cost for other consumables – System compatible with other extraction systems
• Reduce Errors in Total fat analysis – One single HydROC filter avoids sample transfer errors – A true batch handling system saves time – Separation of samples removes risk for contamination
• Safe Design – A closed system reduce risks for the operator – Sample rinsing without any
contact with Acid – Complies with standardized
methods
www.liquidline.se
HydROC Steps • Less complexity – Less Errors
1, Add sample into HydROC Filter and insert
2. Add Acid
3. Boil
4. Rinse
5. Remove sample
1. 2. 3. 5. 4.
Same Filter is used in SoxROC and can also be re-used up to 3 times!

Digestors
• Most of them are ”just boiling” at 420°C • But…
– Everyone knows that they will deteriorate over time – how will they last?
– Some people know that un-even digestion is a problem or common to happen

Büchi Kjelmaster • Most indicates that this the most expensive Kjeldahl instrument on
the market.
• Distillation Units
• Not possible to upgrade
• Smaller Screen
• Kjeldahl Analyzers
• Measuring Range 0.1-200 mgN (0.1-225 mgN)
• % Reproducibility <1% (0.75% rsd)
• Titration System Potentiometric only?
(slow, calibration needed)
• Burette volume 20ml? (50 ml)
• Burette Dosing Accuracy 2μl (1.95 μl)
• Cost for Kjelmaster SW?
(needed for weights and results transfer)
www.liquidline.se
Büchi Extraction
• Complete Portfolio – E-812/816 SOX and HE – E-811 and E-811 LSV – PSE – Manual Hydrolysis
• Only manufacturer fully Soxhlet compliant
• Our Comments – All parts open and accessible, good for viewing but how about
security/safety? Electronics below – how about heavy solvents? – No batch handling or easy to remove recovery tank – Only IP20 for dust and liquid protection – E-811 expensive and specialized (prob slow to use) – Very weak Total Fat solution (10 steps) – Issues with high fat samples?
www.liquidline.se
www.liquidline.se
FOSS Kjeltec
• 2100/8100 Distillation units • No external titration connection • Limited display and communication capabilities • Not upgradable
• Analyzer units
• Measuring Range only 0.1-200 mgN (0.1-225 mgN) • % Reproducibility <1% (0.75%) • Smaller Burette 35 ml (50 ml) • Burette Dosing Accuracy 2.4μl (1.95 μl) • No WiFi • Communication with PC requires the FOSS Compass SW.
Might not be included in pricing? • How about the ”tube lock handle” and security? • User Interface made for a sampler system (many pop-ups etc)
www.liquidline.se
FOSS Soxtec • Portfolio
– Soxtec 8000 – Labtec 243/245/255 – Automatic hydsolysis Hydtec 8000 – Manual hydrolysis Soxcap
• Our Comments – Solvent dial does not have any pump or other system.
Difficult to see advantage vs adding solvents from top. Problems reported
– Separate control unit limits installation possibilities – Only 80% recovery… – More limited batch handling with no easy to remove recovery
tank, no easy access to see all samples… – Thimbles separated from cups inside instrument (safety) – Expensive Total Fat solution (consumables + Hydrolysis unit) – Some reports on application problems

Gerhardt SoxTherm • Portfolio
• Manual Hydrolysis • Automatic Hydrolysis • Automatic Extraction 2-4-6 position
• Hydrolysis
• Fully automatic hydrolysis system but very expensive • Using large filter papers, might be issues in extraction step (to fit). • Sample transfer to extraction thimble, i.e. no batch handling • Consumables cost (2 filters used)
• Extraction
• No removable recovery tank, probably no closed solvent addition • Typical extraction time 2h (as stated on their website) • Separate PC computer + separate compressor • Only 80% recovery

VELP Kjeldahl UDK
• Distillation units • Limited display and communication capabilities
• Not upgradable
• Analyzer units • 25 ml burette standard, 50 ml optional (vs 50 ml)
• Small Touchscreen
• Measuring Range only 0.1-200 mgN (0.1-225 mgN)
• % Reproducibility <1% (0.75%)
• Smaller Burette 25 ml standard, 50 ml optional
• Burette Dosing Accuracy 2μl (1.95 μl)
• No WiFi
• How about the ”tube lock handle” and security?
www.liquidline.se
VELP Extraction
• Portfolio • In 2015 they launched their first automatic extraction unit
• Semi-manual, FOSS copy
• Automatic, Büchi copy
• Hydrolysis • Sample transfer from tube to crucible during Hydrolysis, might be challenging for high fat samples. More
dependent on manual set-up (higher risk for human errors)
• Crucibles requires preparation with Celite and Quartz sand (risk for mistakes due to human errors,
increased cost of consumables)
• Extraction • Claims 90% recovery but we wonder how this can be achieved
• Claims Randall in promotional material (as FOSS) but using reduction of solvent instead – does not seem to
be correct
• Nice touchscreen GUI
• Price unknown
