Product Description
Extracting analytes from large aqueous samples by hand with a separatory funnel is slow and labor intensive. A continuous liquid/liquid extractor runs unattended, cycling fresh solvent through the sample for efficient recovery, and several units can operate side by side on minimal bench space.
This listing is for Kimble catalog number 584190-0000: KONTES Continuous Liquid/Liquid Extraction Apparatus. The apparatus is designed for one liter of sample plus about 200 mL of extracting solvent. The extractor body has a 45/50 top joint and a 24/40 side joint, the condenser has a 45/50 joint and the flask a 24/40 joint. It is made from low-extractable 33 expansion borosilicate glass meeting USP Type I and ASTM E438 Type I, Class A. LIGHT LABS supplies the complete DWK Life Sciences line, including Kimble, Wheaton and DURAN labware.
