I use the Buchi Rotavapor R-200 and it works fine. I'd say it depends what you are trying to do with it, but honestly not all that much.

EDIT: Correction: I have the Buchi RII

Hi,

We are planning to go for a distillation device with a digestor for Nitrogen analysis.

These are the models we have shortlisted

Gerhardt- Vapodest 200
Buchi - K355
Velp - 139,149
FOSS- KT8100

Has anyone used these models in Nitrogen analysis or any other distillation?  How is the performance of the equipment?

Any input will be very helpful,

Best Regards,
Ganesh
