Pure and ultrapure water for laboratory and medical technology, for science and research, for pharmacy and industry.
Whether for demanding applications in life science and analytics or for supplying analyzers, autoclaves and laboratory rinsing equipment – the new Omnia series from stakpure offers the right solution for every task with eleven systems and complies with international water standards such as ASTM, ISO 3696 and CLRW (CLSI). The systems are characterized by economy and flexibility in many application.
ISO 3696:1987 distinguishes between three degrees of purity for water for analytical purposes in laboratories.
| pH value at 25°C | – | – | 5.0 up to 7.0 |
| Conductivity at 25 °C [µS/cm] | 0.1 | 1.0 | 5.0 |
| Oxidizable matter, oxygen content [mg/l, max.] | – | 0.08 | 0.4 |
| Absorption at 254 nm and a lenght of 1 cm (absorption units, max.) | 0.001 | 0.01 | – |
| Residue after evaporation by heating to 110 °C (mg/kg, max.) | – | 1 | 2 |
| Silicon content [mg/l, max.] | 0.01 | 0.02 | – |
This institute defined the quality requirements of water for clinical laboratories. The regulations that were valid up to 2006 (NCCL types 1, 2 and 3) but were then invalidated by the requirement that water must be suitable for the intended usage. Only the degree of purity of so-called “Clinical laboratory reagent water” (CLRW) is described.
| Resistance [MΩ x cm] | 10 |
| TOC [ppb] | < 500 |
| Bacteria [CFU/ml] | < 10 |
| Particle Content | Inline 0.2 µm-filter |
The ASTM D1193-06 (2011) deals with the requirements for chemical analyses and physical tests.
