Sartorius presents the arium® mini, a compact ultrapure water system that is specially designed for ultrapure water requirements of less than 10 liters per day.
With the capacity to deliver ultrapure water at a rate of 1 L/min. and a width of only 28 cm (11 in.), this space-saving unit easily integrates into nearly any lab environment.
For analytical and especially critical applications, such as HPLC/UHPLC, arium® mini can be equipped with an optional integrated UV lamp (185/254 nm). This ensures reliable production of ultrapure water that is virtually free of organic components.
Standard arium® mini
The standard version of arium® mini is independent of a permanently installed water tap. Water is supplied to this system via the integrated bag, which is filled by a built-in pump. In the process, pretreated water is pumped into the bag automatically and is thus used as feed water for the production of ultrapure water.
Feed water needed to produce ultrapure water is supplied by the 5-liter bag integrated on the side of the system. Originally developed for the pharmaceutical industry, this bag is optimal for storing purified water. The closed bagtank system prevents secondary contamination while ensuring consistent long-term water quality. Uncomplicated exchange of the bag also facilitates upkeep of the system and considerably reduces maintenance time compared with conventional tank systems. The bagtank does not require any hazardous cleaning chemicals, further increasing user safety as a result.
arium® mini Plus
The arium® mini Plus, can be directly connected to a feed water tap. In this system, feed water is treated first by a pre-treatment cartridge, which consists of a combination of activated carbon and a reverse osmosis module, and is safely stored intermediately in the integrated bag of the system. Final production of ultrapure water then takes place using a specially developed arium® Scientific purification cartridge.
For analytical and especially critical applications, such as HPLC/UHPLC, arium® mini can be equipped with an optional integrated UV lamp (185/254 nm). This ensures reliable production of ultrapure water that is virtually free of organic components.
