DKL Series and DK Series - Kjeldahl Digesters
DK Series digesters are traditional digesters, consisting of an aluminum heating block to offer high thermal homogeneity. The DKL Series of digesters offers a premium level of automation: lowering and lifting of the samples take place automatically, as well as the separation between the test tubes and the suction cup. VELP digesters work in accordance with a variety of Standards (such as AOAC, ISO, EPA, DIN etc.)
