Water system for our Siemens Dimension chemistry analyzer.
The Millipore system is so easy to use. Changing out consumables is a breeze. Produces great quality water, we never have an issues with our results due to water. The system never breaks down, we have had it for four years now and have had yearly PM's to make it run smoothly. I have worked with Millipore systems for years, including at other labs I have worked in. It is a great water system.

This is used to produce water for our analyzers and reagents
The system keeps us from having to fill the water reservoir on our chemistry instrument which is a huge time saver. The instrument lets you know when filters need to be changed and customer support is great. The maintenance is easy. Water quality is great.

AFS® 8D and AFS 16D Systems provide a cost-effective, low maintenance water purification solution for analyzers with degassed pure water needs up to 320 L daily. AFS® D systems combine complementary water purification techniques (complete pretreatment, advanced reverse osmosis [RO], Q-Gard® polishing pack treatment, exposure to a bactericidal UV lamp, degassing, and final 0.22 µm filtration) to provide reliable and consistent water quality. Water produced by the systems complies with the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI®) guideline for clinical laboratory reagent water (CLRW).
Optimized lifetimes for the systems’ pretreatment and polishing packs, as well as low feed water consumption make AFS® D systems a cost-effective choice.
The systems are designed to fulfill accreditation needs (such as CAPSM 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. Optional activation of Millitrack® software allows easy, rapid access to this information (and also enhances data management control and provides remote system access).
Robust AFS® D systems require little maintenance, which means less analyzer downtime. Systems have a small footprint and can be installed wherever it is convenient in the laboratory: on a wall, on or under the bench, or on a cart. AFS® D systems are customizable with a wide range of options and accessories, including reservoirs, a sanitization kit and an aeration kit.
