Systems Fibertec 2010

This is a semi-automatic system that uses internally preheated reagents added to a closed system to minimize contact with hot reagents. It determines fiber content according to Weende, van Soest and other recognized methods. Single or sequential extractions including boiling, rinsing and filtration are performed under reproducible and controlled conditions.

Fibertec 1023 System E

This system includes a shaking water bath and a filtration module for quantitative determination of dietary fiber in a variety of sample types. The filtration module filters and collects six sample solutions and includes a system for rapid dehydration. The filtration step is speeded up through a built-in "Pressure Mode", to break up clogged filter residues during filtration. Filtration time varies from 2-4 minutes for 100 ml of digested solution. The Shaking Water Bath incubates 12 samples in each batch. The temperature range is from ambient up to 176°F and it is possible to preset three temperatures.

Operator safety

Batch handling tools improve operator safety as there is no need for handling of hot crucibles. The automated heating and addition of the reagents in the system minimizes contact with hot reagents.

Future-proof reference method

The Fibertec systems handle samples in specially designed filter crucibles that are used as an integral part of the assembly during extraction, rinsing and filtration. The crucibles can also be used as sample vessels during weighing, drying and ashing. The Fibertec method is as described in the relevant ISO and EC standards.
