The UDK 129 Distillation Unit is the entry-level solution for your analyses concerning different applications such as determining ammoniacal nitrogen, protein nitrogen, (Kjeldahl or direct alkaline distillation), nitric nitrogen (after reduction), phenols, volatile fatty acids, cyanides, alcohol content and Devarda nitrogen determination.

The UDK 129 runs automatically, after setting sodium hydroxide addition and distillation time using the LCD display in order to get reliable and accurate results. The high-precision pumps ensure constant accurate dosing of reagents and the cooling water is automatically stopped during pauses, thus cutting down on its consumption.

The new UDK 129 incorporates the same high level of technology as the top of the range, with the VELP patented steam generator that offers high performance, safety (no pressure inside) and is maintenance-free. Another unique VELP component is the titanium condenser offering reduced water consumption, ensuring that distillate temperature always remains below the threshold value above which some nitrogen can be lost. The unit works with a technopolymer splash head that ensures durability to protect your investment and requires no maintenance. The technopolymer housing ensures high resistance to chemicals and long life.

The UDK 129 has numerous safety features in order to provide maximum protection for the user. Continuous monitoring indicates incorrect tube and handle positioning; the cooling water flow detector provides a high level of safety. With a novel design, a lever is used to displace the tube support enabling sample tubes to be inserted without any effort and clamped in place securely. A range of test tube sizes is accepted.

Technologically advanced, the UDK 129 includes many features that ensure efficient and reliable distillation, far beyond expectations of an ordinary entry level unit.

The UDK 129 incorporates VELP’s revolutionary TEMS™ technology for unprecedented Savings in terms of Time, Energy, Money and Space.
