KJELFASTER-A24 Kjeldahl Autosampler
KJELFASTER-A24 is a 24-position autosampler for unattended Kjeldahl batches on the KJELFASTER-K900. It moves the φ42 mm × 300 mL digestion tubes to the analyzer, keeps the cleaning position separate from the test positions to prevent cross-contamination and carries 4 × 15 L reagent tanks for approx. 500 analyses per fill. It is powered and controlled by the K900 via CAN (24 V DC, 40 W), so no separate power supply is needed.
Overview
Applications
- High-throughput labs: 24 digested samples per batch without operator attendance.
- Overnight and shift work: the batch runs while the staff prepares the next digestion.
- Accredited labs: all results go into the K900 data memory with audit trail.
- Contract laboratories: predictable capacity and fewer reagent refills.
Why KJELFASTER-A24
- Walk-away operation: load 24 digested tubes and let the K900 run the batch.
- No cross-contamination: the cleaning position is separated from the test positions.
- Fewer refills: 4 × 15 L reagent tanks for approx. 500 analyses per fill.
- Simple installation: powered and controlled by the K900 via CAN — no separate power supply.

Selection guidance
KJELFASTER-A24 is selected when a K900 laboratory wants to run 24-sample batches unattended with minimal reagent refilling. For manual loading the K900 alone is sufficient.
Configuration checklist
- Analyzer: K900 already installed or ordered together.
- Batch size: 24 tubes per run.
- Bench: space and load capacity for 80 kg next to the analyzer.
- Reagents: 4 × 15 L tanks — plan reagent preparation.
