Elix^® 3/5/10 Water Purification Systems

Elix® 3/5/10 Water Purification Systems The standard for analytical-grade water

Produce Consistently-pure Type II Water from Tap
Elix system water meets or exceeds Type II water quality (corresponding to analytical-grade water) as defined by CAP, CLSI and ISO^® 3696/BS 3997. With easy operation and maintenance, Elix systems have set a new standard in the pure water market.

With Elix systems, control of water purity is built-in to every step of the purification process – ensuring that water quality will be a constant in your applications – not an additional variable.


Applications
- Microbiological media preparation
- Buffer preparation
- Hydroponics
- Manufacturing chemical and biochemical reagents
- Purified water for pharmaceutical applications (according to US and European Pharmacopeia)
- Feed for laboratory equipment (washing machines, clinical analyzers, stability chambers, humidifiers, autoclaves, weathering test equipment instruments, hydrogen gas generators)
- Feed to Milli-Q^® ultrapure water systems


Features
- A unique and easy-to-install prefiltration pack unit
- Self-maintenance of the reverse osmosis membrane
- Self-regeneration of the ion-exchange resins by an electrical current
- Advanced reverse osmosis technology with high recovery loop reduces water consumption by more than 50%
- Constant product flow rate
- Integrated UV lamp for optimum water quality for applications sensitive to bacteria
- All system functions are accessible from a user-friendly keypad and displayed on backlit screen
