Our solution: the Direct-Q® range of 
water purification systems 


Direct-Q® systems deliver both pure and ultra- 
oure water directly from tap for use with a wide 
variety of applications in your lab. 


With the Direct-Q® range of water purification 
systems, you benefit from a choice of ultrapure 
water dispensing possibilities. The innovative, 
space-saving Remote dispenser offers you water 
delivery solutions to best fit the way you work, 
with easy and convenient remote delivery up 
to two meters away from your water production 
unit. 


The Direct-Q® range includes versatile solutions 
that can be bench-integrated or bench- / wall- 
installed. 


Direct-Q® systems come either with an integra- 
ted 6-liter reservoir or an external reservoir (30 
| or 60 I). 


Systems in the Direct-Q® range provide 3, 5 or 8 
liters of pure water per hour, covering lab needs 
of 50,100 and 150 | of pure water per day. 


Direct-Q® systems dispense up to 30 | of 
ultrapure water per hour. 


Options such as a UV lamp and a range of 
Application Pak point-of-use polishers are 
available to fine-tune your ultrapure water. 


The user-friendly display provides system status 
at a glance; the concise Quick Reference Guide is 
a handy guide for daily operation. 


All-in-one SmartPak® cartridges enable easy 
and rapid replacement.

Choose the solution that's right for you 


Easy installation 


The Direct-Q® range of systems requires no special 
installation. You can easily set the system up yourself: 
just connect the system to your tap water supply, plug 
it in, and insert the SmartPak® purification cartridges. 
Then, if your configuration includes the Remote 
dispenser or a 30- or 60-liter reservoir, follow the 
simple setup procedures — and your system is ready to use! 


Optimized lab space 


The compact, all-in-one Direct-Q® water purification unit 
lets you locate it nearly anywhere in your laboratory, 
either on or under the benchtop, or wall-installed.* 


*Direct-Q® 5 and Direct-Q® 8 systems are designed for use with a 30 | or 60 | 


external reservoir. 





Flow rates to match your requirements 


Choose the solution that best meets your lab's requirements with a Direct-Q® 
system that provides 3, 5, or 8 liters of pure water per hour, and more than 0.5 | 
of ultrapure water per minute (> 30 I per hour). When not in use, the Direct-O® 
system automatically recirculates water in order to maintain high water quality, 
so that you do not have to wait when sourcing ultrapure water. For your conve- 
nience, and to save time, you can also set the system to automatically deliver 
your selected volume of ultrapure water on demand. 


Choice of storage volumes 


With its built-in reservoir, the Direct-OQ® 3 system can store 6 | of reverse 
osmosis (RO) water, while Direct-O® 5 and 8 models are designed for use with a 
30- or 60-liter reservoir. Just choose the storage volume that best meets your 
daily water volume needs. 





Fine-tune your water quality 





Both pure and ultrapure water 


The Direct-O® range of systems provides you with a convenient and flexible 
solution for your pure and ultrapure water needs, directly from potable tap 
water. You'll have access to ultrapure water for your critical applications, and 
pure water for less critical applications such as general glassware washing or 
final rinsing — from the same system! 


The high quality ultrapure water produced by Direct-Q® systems is suitable for 
applications such as production of mobile phase for chromatographic separations; 
preparation of blanks and standard solutions for spectrophotometry, spectroscopy 
or other analytical techniques; and preparation of buffers for biochemical 
experiments. 





Organic-sensitive applications 


Direct-O® systems are also available with a built-in 185/254 nm UV lamp to 
reduce the level of organics for critical applications. Water with low 
TOC provides important benefits to HPLC users such as higher sensiti- 
vity and longer column lifetime. The same UV lamp also destroys bacteria.

“CORE (TYPE 1) NATER: 


Application Pak point-of-use polishers 


Merck Millipore's range of Application Pak polishers makes it possible to 
fine-tune your ultrapure water quality to match your research needs. Are your 
applications sensitive to bacteria, particulates, pyrogens, nucleases, endocrine 
disruptors or Volatile Organic Compounds? If so, just choose the appropriate final 
polisher from our range of Application Paks to provide optimal water quality 
for your requirements. 

Please see www.millipore.com/laobwater for more information. 


Stay focused on your work 





Versatile remote dispenser 


Designed to fit perfectly into your lab environment, the versatile Remote 
dispenser can be placed up to two meters from your Direct-Q® water purification 
unit. Select the free-standing or wall-installed model according to your 
needs — their ergonomy will make either one a welcome addition to your lab, 
giving you the freedom to focus on your research, while dispensing ultrapure 
water exactly where you need it. Alternatively, Direct-OQ® systems are also 
available with an integrated dispenser for use on the benchtop. 





The design of the bench-installed Direct-O® systems is also adapted to the 
height and shape of common laboratory glassware. 





Merck Millipore offers 
more than water 





Just the information you need 


The intuitive color graphic display shows key system parameters at a glance, 
enabling easy water quality and maintenance warnings monitoring; the 
screen rotates for easy viewing wherever the system is located. A short 
Quick Reference Guide is conveniently located in the base of the system for 
immediate information; the complete User Manual can be stored at the back of 
the water purification unit.
