3.1.6 Twisselmann Extraction (with chamber heater)
Step 1 extraction
The sample is located in the extraction chamber.
The beaker contains the solvent.
The magnetic valve is closed, the solvent is collected in the extraction
chamber. The solvent is heated, vapor rises up to the condenser,
condenses, and drops back through the sample into the extraction
chamber.
Step 2 rinsing
The solvent is heated, vapor rises up to the condenser, condenses
and drops into the extraction chamber with the sample.
The magnetic valve is open, the solvent flows back into beaker, the
solvent is not collected.
This flushes traces of analyte into the beaker.
Step 2 drying
The solvent is heated, vapor rises up around the sample to the con-
denser, condenses and flows into the tank bottle.
The analyte remains in the beaker.
3.1.7 Description of the analyte protection
The Analyte Protection protects the analyte from overheating.
NOTE
The presence of beaker and solvent is always detected wether the Analyte Protec-
tion is activated or deactivated.
