ANKOM DELTAI Automated Fiber Analyzer w/ Pump System 220v

Product information

The ANKOM DELTA Automated Fiber Analyzer with Pump System is designed to efficiently and accurately determine Acid Detergent Fiber (ADF), Neutral Detergent Fiber (NDF), and Crude Fiber within food and/or feed samples. Enabled by Filter Bag Technology, up to 24 samples can be processed at one time.

During analysis cell contents are removed as the encapsulated sample is subjected to the appropriate chemical (AD, ND, or crude fiber acid and base) solutions, leaving the desired fiber fraction. Results are determined gravimetrically. The filter bags are designed to allow proper flow of solutions while retaining non-soluble components. The fiber residue captured in the filter bag can be used for follow-on assays such as ADIN, NDIN, and ADL.

Like the ANKOM200 and ANKOM2000 Fiber Analyzers, digestion and rinse operations are all performed within the same instrument, allowing for the elimination of the separate filtration step. Process temperatures are precisely controlled while providing proper agitation to ensure a uniform flow of chemical solutions and rinses across each sample.

The ANKOM DELTA Automated Fiber Analyzer with Pump System contains a series of pumps that automatically pull the appropriate chemical into the instrument from a chemical container, i.e. cubetainer. No gravity feed is necessary. The DELTA also has a side access panel and window that allows the user to easily monitor and maintain the instrument.

Features and benefits include:

•  Performs Crude Fiber, ADF, and NDF Determinations
• Internal pumps automate chemical delivery for all supported methods, no lifting heavy chemical containers
• Optional Chemical delivery system further reduces costs and technician labor for chemical mixing
• System automatically clears lines to allow for seamless transition between methods
• Batch Process up to 24 Samples at One Time
• Accurate and Precise Results, Time After Time
