AELAB SZF-06C Soxhlet Extraction Fat Analyzer for Precision Oil Content Measurement

The AELAB SZF-06C Soxhlet Extraction Fat Analyzer tests fat content according to the Soxhlet Extraction principle. It features extraction, reagent recovery, cooling system, and temperature controlling functions designed for high-accuracy oil content measurement.

The instrument supports a measuring range of 0.5%–60% across food, feed, oil, and fat-based products. Six samples can be analyzed simultaneously with a heating time of within 10 minutes. The automatic recovery system ensures a recovery rate of ≥80%.

⚙️ Design & Construction

The AELAB SZF-06C incorporates a multi-position Soxhlet extraction assembly with uniform heating across six extraction vessels. The integrated cooling and recovery system stabilizes solvent return flow and minimizes reagent loss. A digital control panel regulates heating performance and temperature, supporting a temperature-controlling range from room temperature to 100 °C. The rigid frame ensures stability, while the enclosed extraction chamber promotes safe operation.

🔬 Working Principle / Testing Method

The SZF-06C operates according to the classical Soxhlet extraction method, where solvent evaporates, condenses, and repeatedly washes the sample to dissolve extractable fats. The cycle continues until full extraction is achieved. The system stabilizes heating, controls temperature, and automatically recovers solvent vapors, enabling reproducible fat determination with minimal operator intervention.

💡 Key Advantages

• Simultaneous processing of six samples increases laboratory throughput.
• Automatic solvent recycling reduces consumption and enhances cost efficiency.
• Rapid heat-up within 10 minutes shortens total extraction time.
• Stable thermal regulation supports precise Soxhlet extraction cycles.
• High solvent recovery rate (≥80%) improves operational safety.
• Compact 670×250×600 mm footprint fits standard benchtop environments.
• Designed for consistent results across food, feed, and oil-content testing workflows.

🔗 Connectivity & Integration

The SZF-06C integrates a digital temperature controller with visual display for monitoring extraction conditions. The system’s interface supports straightforward operation and GLP-style documentation. No external PC connection is required, ensuring simple deployment in routine analysis labs.
