TEMS? Technology
UDK Series Kjeldahl distillation units?work with the innovative?TEMS? benefits, for unmatched savings.
Time Saving: rapid heating reduces wasted time
Energy Saving: limited energy consumption thus cutting CO2?emissions
Money Saving: cost reduction for each analysis
Space Saving: the narrow footprint saves valuable laboratory bench space
Vreceiver? boric acid with indicator sealed bags
VELP unique Vreceiver? is a certified formula composed of?Boric Acid powder?and a mixture of?indicators?mentioned by AOAC methods (Bromocresol Green?and?Methyl red) allowing?fast?and?standardized?receiving solution preparation for colorimetric titration.
The receiving solution is prepared in a few minutes facilitating the day by day operations instead of the typical time consuming process using single reagents. The result is a reliable and standardized solution for colorimetric titration.
