PRODUCT INFORMATION
Milli-Q Synthesis/Synthesis A10 8
WHEN DO I CHANGE THE Q-GARD PURIFICATION PACK?
The decision to change a Q-Gard Pack is based upon time (calendar days) with a Milli-Q Synthesis system.
The Milli-Q Synthesis will indicate a message “EXCH. CARTRIDGES” after 180 Calendar Days.
The Milli-Q Synthesis A10 will never display a message “EXCH. CARTRIDGES”. It is up to the user to change the
Q-Gard, Quantum and Millipak based upon resistivity (and TOC) values.
UV LAMP
The dual wavelength UV Lamp emits light at 185 nm (for TOC reduction) and 254 nm (Germicidal action). The UV
Lamp is used to kill bacteria and to reduce the levels of organic molecules in the water stream between the Q-Gard
Pack and the Quantum Cartridge. The UV Lamp has a Millipore Catalogue Number of ZMQUVLP01.
WHEN DO I CHANGE THE UV LAMP?
It is recommended to change the UV Lamp every 365 Days (once per year). The Milli-Q LCD will show a message
“EXCHANGE UV” after 365 Calendar Days indicating it is time to replace the UV Lamp.
QUANTUM
The Quantum Ultrapure Cartridge is used to remove trace levels of ions and organic molecules.
WHAT ARE THE DIFFERENT TYPES OF QUANTUM CARTRIDGES?
The Quantum IX contains only Mixed Bed Ion Exchange resin. This type of Quantum Cartridge is used when
maintaining absolutely trace levels of ions is critical.
The Millipore Catalogue Number for a Quantum IX is QTUM000IX. See Section 8-1 for more
information.
The Quantum EX contains ion exchange resin and synthetic carbon. These purification media are used when the
Milli-Q Product Water needs to have both trace levels of ions and trace levels of organic species.
The Millipore Catalogue Number for a Quantum EX is QTUM000EX. See Section 8-1 for more
information.
The Quantum VX contains media that removes Volatile Organic Carbon species and maintains trace levels of
ions.
The Millipore Catalogue Number for a Quantum VX is QTUM000VX. See Section 8-1 for more
information.
WHEN DO I CHANGE THE QUANTUM ULTRAPURE CARTRIDGE?
It is recommended to change the Quantum Ultrapure Cartridge when the Q-Gard Purification Pack
is changed. See “When do I change the Q-Gard Purification Pack” (see the section above) for more
information.
