Description of the system
The Milli-Q
®
EQ 7000 manages the production and the distribution of ultrapure water from a
puried water source such as a tank or a pressurized loop. It consists of three main units:
• The water purication unit manages the production of ultrapure water.
• The Q-POD unit manages the dispensing with Quick info for the performance of the system
through LEDs.
• The HMI unit provides the user interface.
Puried water either from a pressurized loop or a storage tank enters the purication unit.
It is rst puried by the IPAK Meta
®
polishing cartridge composed of ion-exchange resins,
removing the bulk of the ions. The puried water then ows to the UV 185nm oxidation lamp.
Organic molecules are partially oxidized, resulting in ions. These can then be captured in the
next stage when the puried water enters the IPAK Quanta
®
polishing cartridge, composed of
ion-exchange resins and synthetic activated carbon. The IPAK Meta and IPAK Quanta polishing
cartridges always need to be replaced together to ensure optimal purication down to trace
levels of contaminants. Throughout the purication steps, quality parameters are monitored
with resistivity and temperature sensors and the TOC (total oxidizable carbon) indicator. The
TOC indicator gives an indication of the total organic content measured in ppb at the point of
distribution.
