BEHR Behrotest® KEX 1000 F/TK Complete Soxhlet Extraction System (1000 mL Extractor with 2000 mL Round Flask and Titanium Condenser)

The BEHR Behrotest® Complete Soxhlet Extraction System (KEX 1000 F/TK) is a high-performance, large-capacity solution designed for classic Soxhlet and fat extraction applications in food, feed, and environmental laboratories. Engineered for precision, reliability, and user convenience, this system provides a complete setup for efficient solvent extraction of lipids and other analytes from solid samples.

The unit combines a 1000 mL glass extractor, a 2000 mL round-bottom flask, and a robust titanium condenser, ensuring superior heat resistance, solvent recovery efficiency, and long-term durability. Its integrated magnetic stirrer with continuously variable heating control provides optimal extraction conditions and reproducible results.

This premium extraction system embodies BEHR’s reputation for laboratory excellence—offering precision-engineered components, safe operation, and compatibility with BEHR hydrolysis units for acid digestion prior to extraction (enabling total fat determination according to Weibull and Stoldt methods).
