The Environmental Express HotBlock SimpleDist C8000 Digestion System

The HotBlock SimpleDist C8000 is a laboratory-grade digestion and distillation system built for precision, throughput, and reliability. With its 26-well design for 10 mL tubes, it is ideal for routine analysis of challenging matrices in environmental, food, and industrial labs. Use it for total cyanide, weak acid dissociable (WAD) cyanide, and ammonia analyses, among others.

This compact unit accelerates sample preparation while maintaining control and repeatability. Whether your lab handles drinking water, wastewater, soils, or industrial effluents, the C8000 is designed to deliver consistent, high-quality results.

Key Features & Benefits of the Environmental Express HotBlock SimpleDist C8000 Digestion System

26-Well, High-Throughput Format

Supports processing of up to 26 samples simultaneously. This helps reduce per-sample labor and boosts lab throughput.

10 mL Tube Compatibility

Optimized for small volumes, making it space-efficient yet still powerful for high-concentration or trace analyses.

Uniform & Stable Heating

Engineered for consistent temperature across all wells. Uniform heating minimizes sample-to-sample variance and helps prevent hot spots or under-digestion.

Integrated Digestion + Distillation

Combines digestion and distillation functions in one workflow. Ideal for tests involving volatile analytes or components needing both steps.

Simple Operation & Ergonomics

Controls are intuitive, simplifying training needs and reducing operator error. The layout is built for ease of sample insertion/removal and cleaning.

Standard Power Configuration

Operates on 120 VAC — compatible with many lab setups without requiring exotic voltage conversion (in applicable geographies).

Applications & Use Cases

• Environmental water testing (cyanide, ammonia)
• Industrial effluent monitoring
• Food & beverage matrix digestion
• Soil and sediment pretreatment
• Regulatory compliance labs (EPA, EU methods)

This instrument supports standard methods involving cyanide (total, WAD) and ammonia analysis. Its repeatability makes it a dependable core instrument in QA/QC workflows.

Why Choose the C8000?

• Consistency you can trust. Reliable temperature uniformity means fewer outliers and re-runs.
• Efficiency in throughput. 26 wells means your batch size increases without compromising control.
• Compact, dual-purpose design. You don’t need separate digestion and distillation stations—they’re built into one.
• Ease of adoption. Straightforward interface and familiar power requirements help you bring it online quickly.
• Versatile across industries. Environmental labs, food safety labs, industrial QA—this system adapts.
