Millipore’s New Milli-Q® Advantage Ultrapure Water System

Millipore today announced the availability of the new Milli-Q Advantage system to meet the ultrapure water needs of most users and their specific applications. The main benefit is the convenience of a single system. The water quality adapts to the requirements of users in the pharmaceutical, biotechnology, cosmetic, clinical, environmental, food and beverage, and government laboratories.

The production unit converts pure water to ultrapure water. Rather than purchasing separate production units, several final point-of-use polishers are available to match the required application. The production units can be placed on the bench, under the bench or on a wall.

The movable Q-POD™ unit provides the final purification step closest to the water dispensing point and adjusts to any glassware height and shape. Up to three Q-POD dispensers can be used per system at different locations within 10 feet of the production unit. Flow rates vary from drop by drop to 2L/min. Users can dispense the water manually or set a pre-defined volume.

System information is displayed graphically on the Q-POD base and in eight languages on the production unit. Additionally, the system utilizes eSure™ Technology to identify the installed consumables and record their usage for promoting timely maintenance.

Millipore’s Bioscience division delivers complete solutions and services for pharmaceutical, academic, life science, clinical and government research laboratories. With more than 50 years of experience, Millipore manufactures and markets several thousands of products that accelerate drug screening and improve sample preparation.
