In advanced environments like hospitals, laboratories, and biopharmaceutical production, only ultrapure water systems can meet the critical requirements for research, sterilization, and manufacturing. For healthcare institutions across Chicago, Meredith's Culligan offers high-performance, ultrapure water systems designed for the most stringent purity standards.
Why Ultrapure Water is Essential in Healthcare and Biopharma
- Minimizes Contaminants: Removes organic compounds, bacteria, endotoxins, and total dissolved solids (TDS) to trace levels.
- Supports Regulatory Compliance: Meets or exceeds ASTM, CLSI, USP, and CAP water standards for Type I and Type II water.
- Protects Equipment and Processes: Ensures sensitive instruments such as HPLC, autoclaves, and analyzers function optimally and without contamination.
What Meredith's Culligan Offers for Ultrapure Water Applications
Deionized (DI) Water Tanks โ Portable Exchange DI Systems
- Ideal for lab-grade and process-grade DI water needs.
- Provides a cost-effective, flexible solution without on-site regeneration.
- Professionally maintained and exchanged by our expert service team.
- Used in glassware rinsing, reagent preparation, and final rinse processes in critical applications.
Reverse Osmosis (RO) Systems
- Forms the backbone of ultrapure water production by removing 95โ99% of TDS.
- Integrated with:
- Sediment Filters to remove suspended solids.
- Carbon Filters to eliminate chlorine, chloramines, and organic molecules.
- Water Softeners for upstream scale prevention.
- Engineered to support pre-treatment phases before final DI polishing or UV sterilization.
