The Combined Distillers for Volatile Acidity, Sulphur and Alcohol in Wines

The VA/SO₂ Kombo Glasschem stills consist of a distillation unit for volatile acidity combined with 2 or 4 units  to determine the sulphur dioxide, according to the Kombo version. These instruments are certainly the ideal solution for wine industries and third-parties laboratories which must perform distillations of more parameters, simultaneously: the VA/SO₂ Kombo Glasschem distillers allow the additional analysis of the alcoholic content, with an accuracy better than 0,2%, thanks to the ebulliometric technique and to the special supplied software. The new design, the auto-draining system for eliminating the exhausted wine sample at the end of the distillation for volatile acidity, the flow-rate control system of the air stream for SO₂, the high efficiency of the wine heating and the absence of gas leaks in the environment get these new instruments really exclusive.

Advantages

• "All-in-one" instruments for the analysis of volatile acidity, SO₂ and alcoholic content
• 2 available versions to satisfy all needs: Kombo 1+2 and Kombo 1+4
• Appliable to all wines and most grape juice and spirits

• Easy separation and draining of exhausted wine samples at the end of the procedure
• Several distillations of volatile acidity can be run in a row, without adding cold water
• 2 or 4 distillation heads for the total or free or bound sulphur dioxide
• Alcoholic content analysis based on the ebulliometric method (accuracy: better than 0,2%)
• Optional "Alcohol Determination Kit" for the determination of alcoholic content
• High-efficiency and energy-saving electrical heating
• Constant heat input: no differences from distillation to distillation
• Space ergonomical design
• Very compact sizes
• Easy to install and use
