FIBER ANALYZER
FIBRETHERM: Efficient analysis of up to 12 samples in simultaneously
FIBRETHERM automates the digestion and filtration processes for fibre analysis of feed. The device automatically controls and monitors all boiling, washing and filtration processes in a closed circuit without the need for a fume cupboard. FibreBag technology optimises sample digestion and speeds up the washing and filtration processes. All detergents are automatically fed and dosed via calibrated pumps. The determination of the NDF value after addition of the α-amylase can be carried out during operation without interrupting the process.
Sample type
Feed, feed ingredients, forage, pet food, grain, cereal and oil seeds
Parameters
Crude Fiber (CF), Neutral Detergent Fiber (NDF), Acid Detergent Fiber (ADF) and Acid Detergent Lignin (ADL)
Principle
The FIBRETHERM method is based on the FibreBag technology developed by C. Gerhardt. This innovative filtration technology avoids common problems in the classic filtration method using frits and filter beds, it simplifies handling and digestion of the samples and ensures better and more reliable results.

FAT EXTRACTOR
- Gerhardt‘s innovative SOXTHERM rapid extraction system is the highest performed of all laboratory extraction systems available on the market. It is fast, very versatile, can be upgraded easily at any time and provides the best analysis results reliably and consistently. With SOXTHERM you can process up to 24 different samples simultaneously. The device runs fully automatically and can be operated without supervision with confidence. Just insert the extraction beaker and let it run: The time your presence is required is reduced to a minimum. The control software monitors and logs all processing and device data. Your advantage: The extraction processes in your laboratory are transparent, documented and traceable at all times.
