KEY FEATURES
- Large colour touchscreen for easy navigation of menus and wizards
- High performance ultrapure water units in compact housing
- Practical production of high specification (0.055 μS/cm, Type I) water
The Astacus² system is designed for the production of ultrapure water (0.055 μS/cm, Type I water) out of permeate derived from reverse osmosis or deionised water. The Astacus² water purification system is available in different configurations (Reagent, Analytical & LifeScience) to meet the specific requirements of ultrapure water for different applications.
The Astacus² system produces ultrapure water through a combination of optimized mixed bed cartridges and can be tapped with a flexible dispenser. If water is not used, automatic recirculation within the Astacus² system ensures a permanent high quality of ultrapure water. All components of the Astacus² are assembled in an especially designed housing. The system can be easily opened by removing the side panel to access the ultrapure module, UV lamp and ultra filtration module.
This model, the Astacus² (Life Science) ultrapure water unit incorporates a UV reactor ensuring low total organic carbon (TOC) values of < 3 ppb, as well as a ultrafiltration (UF) module for improved water quality including low endotoxin values.
The membraPure range of ultrapure water systems are manufactured in Germany and globally recognised as proven technology for producing laboratory grade water, for over 25 years.
