AFS® 8D Water Purification System

Merck

Analyzer Feed Systems (AFS®) provide a cost-effective, low maintenance water purification solution for analyzers with degassed pure water needs up to 320 L daily. AFS® D systems combine complementary water purification techniques (complete pretreatment, advanced reverse osmosis [RO], Q-Gard® polishing pack treatment, exposure to a bactericidal UV lamp, degassing, and final 0.22 µm filtration) to provide reliable and consistent water quality. Water produced by the systems complies with the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI®) guideline for clinical laboratory reagent water (CLRW). The systems are designed to fulfill accreditation needs (such as CAPSM 15189 accreditation to the ISO® 15189:2007 standard), and have full monitoring and water quality archiving capabilities that allow storage of up to six months of data. Optional activation of Millitrack®® software allows easy, rapid access to this information (and also enhances data management control and provides remote system access).
