2.0 GENERAL INFORMATION

The demineralizer is fed by tap water. It produces water for analytical and instrumental purposes. Obtained
water fits the standards of the PN ISO 3696:1999, ASTM. Dependent on the demineralizer type, water may
be used for instrumental analyses: AAS, ICP/MS, IC, HPLC, GC. Demineralizers by default are equipped with
a microprocessor control and measurement system that supervises the demineralization process (type A au-
tomatics).

2.1 How it works

The demineralizer works under the tap water pressure. Purification processes are automated and mainte-
nance-free. These are:
1. Mechanical filtration
2. Sediment-carbon-softening filtration
3. Reverse osmosis (RO)
4. Ion exchange demineralization
5. UV lamp 254 nm*
6. Microfiltration capsule*
* depends on the model
2.2 Mechanical-sediment-softening filtration
5 μm pre-filter -prepares water for the reverse osmosis process. It contains a polypropy-
lene string cartridge wrapped around a filtration core located inside the filter. It filters out
all kind of mechanical filtration of size > 5 μm.
