Water purification systems for clinical diagnostics

Water is vital to many different stages of the clinical analyzer process MEDICA “ ateris W allwedo. Weknow water.” Purified water is used as a zero/baseline standard in clinical chemistry tests and if the levels of certain ions (e.g. Ca2+, Mg2+, 3PO4 , HCO3) are not optimal then this will affect the calibration stability and reduce assay sensitivity. Likewise, bacterial by-products, most notably alkaline phosphatase, can interfere with enzymebased immunoassays. We understand it is critical for clinical analyzers to receive a constant and reliable supply of compliant water to attain accurate and...

Matching systems to clinical analyzers Supporting you all the way This brochure outlines the key features in our MEDICA product range. The systems are designed to provide water to clinical analyzers specified to Clinical Laboratory Reagent Water (CLRW) standard (formally Clinical Laboratory Standards Institute Type 1).

“Thehigh puritysolution forsingle analyzers” Reliable and economical supply for low usage The MEDICA solution for overcoming your water purification challenges Challenge MEDICA Solution Operating with and adhering to a A pre-installation site survey provides realistic information on the cost of ownership resulting in no surprises. Robust deionization processes provide a constant supply of high purity water at minimal running costs tight annual budget, you want the lowest cost of ownership and a long-serving piece of equipment Lab or plant room space is at a premium, therefore, only a small area...

MEDICA- R The low-usage option for tap water feed A compact, dedicated unit providing CLRW grade water, the MEDICA-R is an ideal choice for use with a single chemistry or immunoassay clinical analyzer. Two models are available providing either 7 or 15 liters/hr, and facilitating an instantaneous demand of up to 1.8 liters/min from tap water feed. MEDICA-D Low-usage option to meet dissolved oxygen specification The MEDICA-D shares the same features as the MEDICA-R, providing CLRW grade water for single clinical analyzers. In addition, the MEDICA-D incorporates a deaeration membrane, providing...

“Reliable supplyforlabs requiringlarge volumes” Pro-R and Pro-RE High volume and high purity for high usage Designed to supply CLRW grade water to large or multiple clinical analyzers The MEDICA solution for overcoming your water purification challenges When high purity water is required in high volumes for large or multiple analyzers, the MEDICA Pro range offers a choice of systems at an undemanding cost of ownership. MEDICA Solution To avoid any interference from Designed to recirculate purified water through DI (deionization), UV (ultraviolet) and ultramicrofiltration technologies. This maintains...

Complete with a 50 liter, built-in wrap-around reservoir, these systems are available as 30, 60 or 120 liters/hr rates and this space saving design can be readily upgraded to higher flow rates. Long-lasting Protek pre-treatment cartridges have a high capacity adsorbant/ pre-filter that provides increased protection by minimizing contaminants, e.g. chlorine and chloramines, and can be easily installed thereby reducing maintenance time. Twin Medpure deionization cartridges ensure an instantaneous demand of up to 4 liters/min. Providing pressurized feed to single or multiple analyzers requiring...
