Ultra Pure Water Purification Systems

• Ultra Pure Water System to produce ultra pure water directly from municipal tap water.
• The system can produce analytical grade water with a conductivity of 0.055 µS/cm at 25°C (18.2 MegOhm/cm), and a TOC value < 1 ppb. Depending on the version, it combines Reverse Osmosis (Aquinity P) and EDI (Aquinity E) with mixed bed and carbon purification technology.
• Each version is available in three models. Beside the REAGENT model, the ANALYTICAL model includes a UV-oxidation (185 and 254 nm) and the LIFE SCIENCE model has additionally an Ultra Filtration module.
• The new ultra pure water systems Aquinity² and Astacus² provide you with
  reliable and compact systems which produce ASTM Type I grade water.
  The Aquinity² is fed directly from (tap) municipal or potable water whereas
  Astacus² needs de-ionized water. Both systems ensure high comfort at low
  operating costs.
  Aquinity² systems are equipped with a reverse osmosis (RO) or additional
  an electro deionization (EDI) cell to produce de-ionized water. The systems
  are equipped with 10 l, 35 l or 70 l storage reservoirs which are filled with a
  production rate of 10 l/h. The de-ionized water can be dispensed straight
  from this reservoir. In the next step the ultra pure water is produced with a
  combination of optimized cartridges with activated carbon and mixed bed.
  As an additional option the new Aquinity2 and Astacus² models enable remote
  diagnosis and service via Internet. This Remote Check offers you the
  opportunity to save time and money by fast and reliable support through
  the service team.

Advantages of the new systems

• Big touchscreen
• Remote Service module
• Menus and wizards easy to use and mistake avoiding
• New fi xed an fl exible dispenser
• Easy access for cartridge exchange

Short description of the three versions:

• Aquinity² P10: Aquinity² models produce ultra pure water directly from municipal or potable tap water. The Aquinity² P10 is equipped with a reverse osmosis (RO) to produce deionized water directly into an integrated 10 l tank. In the next step Type I water is produced with a polisher cartridge. The model Aquinity² P10 is ideal for laboratories with a lower daily need of ultra pure water.

Permeate rate:  8 l/h
Resistivity:  18.2 MOhm x cm
Reservoir : 10 l
Flow Rate UPW: 1.5 l/min
TOC: < 10 ppb (Reagent)
< 1 ppb (Analytical with UV )

• Aquinity² P35/P70 versions have an independent tank from where RO water can be tapped (e.g. for glass ware cleaning). The water quality from this tank depends on the feed water quality; in general the RO holds back 98% of all ions. The tank can be installed at the side, above the system or even underneath the bench. Tapping of ultra pure water is done with our fi xed and fl exible dispenser as in all membraPure UPW systems. With the Aquinity² P35/P70 versions also a TOC monitoring is available. Aquinity² P35/P70 is the perfect system for a midsize lab.

Permeate rate: 10 l/h
Resistivity: 18.2 MOhm x cm
Reservoir: 35 l or 70 l
Flow Rate UPW: 2 l/min
TOC: < 10 ppb (Reagent), 5 ppb (Aquinity² E)
< 1 ppb (Analytical with UV)
< 5 ppb (LifeScience with UV and UF)
Endotoxins: < 0.001 EU/ml endotoxins (LifeScience)

• Astacus²

To produce ultra pure water Astacus² systems are fed with de-ionized water. Astacus² models are designed for a daily consumption of less than 100 l and are equipped with a MemPak purifi cation cartridge. Astacus² is available in different versions (Reagent, Analytical & LifeScience) to meet the specifi c requirements of ultra pure water for different applications. The systems also have the new fi xed and fl exible dispenser and a big touchscreen with easy to use menus and wizards.

Resistivity: 18.2MOhm x cm
Flow Rate: UPW 2 l/min
TOC: < 10 ppb (Reagent)
< 1 ppb (Analytical with UV )
< 5 ppb (LifeScience with UV and UF )
Endotoxins: < 0.001 EU/ml endotoxins (LifeScience)

• μS-Control (only for Astacus²)
  The μS-Control checks the conductivity of feed water to protect the cartridges against feed water of poor quality. If conductivity of the feed water is to high this water will
  be rejected and cannot infl uence the quality of the ultrapure water. The capacity of the cartridges is thereby used optimally.
• TOC monitoring (only for Astacus² & Aquinity² P/E 35/70)
  The TOC monitoring during production and intermittent measurements during non-use periods allows to check the organics in water continuously. The TOC value is measured between 1 and 30 ppb and can be shown in the display to monitor organic impurities.
• Upgrade for Trace Analysis :To detect traces of substances in analytics, the water quality has to be of highest purity. Therefore all components are made of unfi lled material. Tubing material is PTFE for minimal adhesion. Dead spaces are avoided and the recirculation pump is made of PEEK and stainless steel. The material of the tap valve is PVDF.
• memTap: Our new automatic memTap allows the volumetric controlled tapping of water with a dispenser arm. The arm can be moved horizontally and vertically. Preset of
  tap-volume is in 0.1 l steps. This system prevents overfl ow of containers and allows
  to tap water without supervising. The 3,5“ display with touch screen offers you all relevant data at a glance.
