Soxhlet Extraction Apparatus
Precision-Calibrated Siphon Geometry: Engineered with a specialized vapor path and siphon tube diameter to maintain consistent cycle timing, ensuring optimal solvent-to-sample contact without premature drainage.
CNC-Ground Interchangeable Joints: Features standardized 1:10 taper interfaces with high-vacuum matte finishes, providing a hermetic, leak-proof seal that prevents solvent vapor loss during long-duration extraction cycles.

Quick answer: The Soxhlet Extraction Apparatus performs continuous solid-liquid extraction — repeatedly cycling fresh solvent through a solid sample via automated reflux — commonly used to extract lipids and other compounds for analytical and teaching purposes in chemistry labs. Soxhlet Extraction Apparatus is priced at approximately ₹760 (indicative market benchmark, incl. GST, August 2026).
The Soxhlet Extraction Apparatus is built around a continuous extraction cycle: solvent is heated, evaporates, condenses above the sample chamber, and drips back through the solid sample repeatedly, maximising extraction efficiency without needing a large solvent volume. This makes it well suited for extracting lipids and other solid-phase compounds where thorough, repeated solvent contact improves yield. Made from borosilicate glass for chemical resistance, the modular assembly is a standard piece of apparatus in analytical and organic chemistry practical courses, as well as food-science laboratory work analysing fat content in samples.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does Soxhlet extraction work?
Solvent is heated, evaporates, condenses above the sample, and drips back through it repeatedly, allowing thorough extraction of the target compound using a relatively small solvent volume.
What is this apparatus typically used to extract?
It is commonly used for lipid extraction and other solid-phase compound extraction, including food-science fat-content analysis.
What sample thimble size does this apparatus use?
Exact thimble and flask size have not been independently verified for this listing — confirm compatible sizes with STEMAids before ordering.
Is this suitable for a college analytical chemistry lab?
Yes — Soxhlet extraction is a standard technique taught in analytical and organic chemistry practical courses.
