I need to know about the sizes of condenser and soxhlet extractor in my set-up. How can i choose between different volumes that are available?

what factors should be considered in choosing the right condenser and soxhlet?

 

Cheers,

That's a bit like saying "I want to bake a cake; what size saucepans do I need?"..

Give us some hints at what you are doing.

Yea - does it really matter? I'd want my sample to fill about a quarter of the filter thimble so it doesn't over fill and wash over the top... but this might be over precaution. As long as your sample that you are washing is safely in the filter I wouldn't have thought that it matters how large the soxhlet is.
