AFS® E Water Purification System

Merck

CLRW quality • Optimized purification

AFS® E systems are equipped with the best-in-class unique Elix® EDI module. It provides a superior and consistent water quality while preserving the environment. Other complementary water purification techniques such as Intelligent Reverse Osmosis controls water consumption and ensures a constant product flow rate. Water produced by the systems complies with the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute® (CLSI) guideline for clinical laboratory reagent water (CLRW). Depending on daily volume needs, different production flow rates are available (10 and 15 L/h).

Elix® EDI technology, which uses ion exchange resins that are permanently self-regenerated, helps ensure low and predictable running costs for the AFS® E range of systems. The fact that there are no resin cylinders to replace also helps reduce system-related expenses for users.

The systems are designed to fulfill accreditation needs (such as CAP™ 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. Activation of Millitrack® Essential e-Solution allows easy, rapid access to this information and also enhances data management control and provides remote system access.
