Millipore's new Milli-Q Integral water purification system uses tap water to supply constant-quality Type II (pure) and Type I (ultrapure) water from a single water production unit
The new Milli-Q Integral water purification system combines Millipore's Elix technology with the best-in-class Milli-Q solution to produce pressurised pure and ultrapure water, providing users with direct control over water quality throughout the entire purification process.
Users also benefit from low maintenance and well-controlled running costs, thanks to Elix technology and its ion-exchange resins, which are continuously regenerated by a weak electric current.
The Milli-Q Integral system produces pure and/or ultrapure water for needs ranging from 60 to 300litres/day.
Separate points-of-delivery (PODs), dedicated either to ultrapure water (Q-Pod) or pure water (E-Pod), ensure convenient delivery at a flow rate adjustable from drop-by-drop to 2l/min.
Users are assured of having the exact water quality they require, as the flexible Pods can be adapted with a choice of final polishers to remove specific contaminants, including pyrogens, nucleases, bacteria, particulates and organics.
Pod dispensers offer users full convenience on a daily basis.
The dispensers accommodate a complete range of laboratory glassware and provide automatic or manual dispensing options.
Information concerning system operation and water quality (ionic and organic contaminant level) is displayed graphically on their bases as well as on the production unit, where it can be seen at a glance and printed out, if necessary.
The compact Milli-Q Integral water production unit takes up minimal space and can be installed anywhere in the laboratory - either conveniently located on or under the bench - or high on a wall.
The system's Q-Pod and E-Pod water delivery units also have a small footprint and can be placed on the bench or wall-installed.
With its flexible installation and upgrade options, the new system allows users to keep pace with changes in laboratory activities.
Up to three Pod units, placed at different locations in the laboratory, can be supported by each system.
Milli-Q Integral system users benefit from Millipore's comprehensive service programme, including professional validation support.
