arium Systems
The Sartorius arium 611VF is a
water purification system designed
to provide pyrogen-free, low TOC
reagent grade water that exceeds
ASTM Type I and NCCLS Type I
standards. The system uses a
deionization process with mixed
bed resins and activated carbon
combined with UV oxidation, ultra-
filtration and a 0.2-micron final
filter to produce laboratory reagent
grade water. The 611VF system is
capable of producing pyrogen-free
(< 0.001 EU/ml), low TOC (< 1 ppb)
water with a resistivity of up to
18.2 MegOhms + cm. Water
resistivity is continuously sensed
by a resistivity cell and displayed
on a digital display.

measure the flow rate of the water
from the timed dispense outlet.
Install the supplied 4” tube to the
dispense outlet port. Follow the
menu instructions below to operate
the timed dispense control. When
asked to enter a time, use the up
down arrows and enter a 1-minute.
Place the open end of the tubing
in a graduated container of at least
2-liter volume. Activate the timer
and allow water to collect in the
container. When the 1-minute
timed dispense has stopped,
measure the volume of water col-
lected. Use the volume collected
in 1-minute (flow rate) to calculate
your dispense time requirement.
For example, you have measured
a 1-liter volume in 1-minute.
Your measured flow rate is 1l/min.
If you need 10 liters to fill a
container, 10 l/1l per minute =
10 minutes dispense time.
Note
If you are using a filter with the
Timed Dispense feature, attach
the filter and rinse the filter for
5 minutes to drain before measur-
ing the flow rate. Measure the flow
rate each time you change filters
or cartridges.

Set Cell Constant
The resistivity and temperature cell
constants are factory set! If you
have to replace the cell, you will
find the resistivity and temperature
cell constants listed on the cell
cable (1) located inside the arium
system. To provide a more accurate
reading, the cell constants should
be entered in the system memory
by the user. Follow the steps below
to enter the cell constants:
• Power off the arium system (“O”)
and disconnect it from the AC
power outlet.
• Open the front doors and place
the red cartridge pack on the side.
• Locate the white label on the
gray cell cable (1) underneath the
resistivity cell. Record the resistivity
and temperature cell constants.
• Place the red cartridge back in the
system, close the doors, connect the
system to the AC outlet and power
on the arium water system (“I”).
• Press MENU to get into the Main
Menu:
• Use Yor yto select “Utilities”.
Press ENTER to confirm.
• Use Yor y to select “Set Cell
Constant”. Press ENTER to confirm.
• Use Yor yto enter the resis-
tivity (Res) and temperature (Temp)
cell constants previously recorded.
