Milli-Q® Direct Water Purification System 


Pure & ultrapure water directly from tap water 





EMD Millipore is a division of Merck KGaA, Darmstadt, Germany 





Pure & ultrapure water from a single water system 


Scientists’ needs: 


Scientists need a system that can deliver pure and ultrapure 
water directly from tap water at the right price: 

e meeting increasing quality standards 

e providing convenience 

è optimizing lab space 

e allowing low running costs 


Optimum water production 
Pure water 


Tap water is first purified to pure (Type 3) water by reverse osmosis 
(RO) using techniques designed and optimized by EMD Millipore: 
e Progard® pretreatment cartridge validated to extend the 
lifetime of the RO cartridge. 

e Reject recirculation loop that recycles reject water treated by the 
Progard® to minimize tap water usage (recovery up to 66 %)* and 
extend Progard® lifetime while avoiding fouling or scaling issues 
that might shorten the RO cartridge lifetime. 

e Unique system adaptation to feed water temperature in order to 
avoid flow rate decrease during the wintertime when tap water is 
colder. 

e Unique safety device ensuring that only low ionic permeate 
water will be sent to the tank in order to warrant adequate pure 
water quality and to increase the lifetime of the ion-exchange 
cartridge used to produce ultrapure water. 

e Complete process monitoring system that systematically checks 
water temperature, pressure, conductivity and RO rejection using 
calibrated meters at different steps. 


Ultrapure water 


e Water is purified in a first step using unique Jetpore® ion- 
exchange resin, synthetic activated carbon and a UV lamp 
emitting at 185 and 254 nm to reach a resistivity of 18.2 MQ.cm 
at 25° and a TOC value below 5 ppb; both values are monitored by 
advanced analytical techniques. 

e This water is sent through a small recirculation loop to the 
Application Pak, where a final purification step, critical for specific 
expriments, removes contaminants just before water leaves the 
system. 


“depending on feed water quality 


The Milli-OQ® Direct answer: 


The Milli-OQ® Direct is designed as a single water system which produces 
pure and ultrapure water directly from tap water. The system: 

e exceeds the requirements of the most demanding norms 

e provides manual and volumetric water dispense at low and 
high flow rate 

e has a low footprint: wall-or bench-integrated installation 

e allows optimized global costs 


The pure water produced by reverse osmosis is stored in a tank 
designed to minimize risks of contamination during water 
storage. EMD Millipore's tank level sensor will allow the system 
to automatically start or stop producing water when you want 
to and will accurately display the tank's water level on the 
system's screen. Safety devices prevent overflow or the system 
from running dry. 


From the reservoir, water can be sourced though a front valve, 
sent by a delivery pump to feed instruments such as a glassware 
washing machine, or further processed by the Milli-Q® Direct 
to produce ultrapure (Type1) water. 


Convenience in water delivery: 





Easily prepare solutions with the 
low flow function to precisely 
adjust the meniscus in volumetric 
flasks. 


The 75 cm long tubing reaches the sink 
for easy glassware washing at mid or 
w~ high flow (up to 2 | per mn). 





Save time with the volumetric 
function automatically delivering 
the water volume you need, and 
the dispensing arm designed to 
fit the height and shape of all 
laboratory glassware. 


Deliver water hands-free using the 
footswitch option for more convenience.

Easy access to information 


e Simplified and detailed information in 
(local language). 

e Alerts & alarms (which can be enhanced 
by a buzzer) are visible on the system's main 
screen, with complete information on actions 
required accessible at the touch of a finger. 

e Sensors regularly monitor the operation of 
the system to ensure it operates within speci- 
fications. For instance, if ionic contamination 
of feed water exceeds specifications, causing 
high conductivity, the built-in Feed Water 
Conductivity Meter will trigger an alarm to 
alert you. 








e Clear graphics help you perform specific 
tasks such as maintenance. From the same 
screen, you can even print reports on the 
system's water quality and history. 







Maia =| 


e Critical information such as set points or 
units is accessible only to the designated 
responsible user and is protected by a login 
and a password. 

e Automatically stop ultrapure water dispense 
after a fixed time period set by the user, in 
order to avoid water loss or lab flooding.

Milli-OQ® Direct with Wall Mounting Bracket and 
Q-POD® 


Protectors: 


e Water Sensor - placed on the floor, this sensor stops water feed 
to the system if there is water on the floor. 

e Tank Level Sensor - transfers tank level information to the 
system to start & stop pure water production at levels selected 
by the user. A safety level prevents air from entering the ultrapure 
water part when the tank is empty. 

e Silicone Cover to protect your Q-POD® from harsh chemicals, 
such as strong acid & bases, aggressive solvents or etchants. 

e UV lamp 254 nm: installed upstream from the inlet to the tank, 
this optional UV lamp allows reduction of the level of bacteria in 
the permeate water by a factor of 1000. 


Footswitch 


e Connect the footswitch to the base of the Q-POD® dispenser or 
directly to the Milli-Q® system for hands-free water delivery: press 
once to start and once to stop.
