1 Preface
1.1 About this Manual
The Thermo Scientific™ Aquanex™ Ultrapure Water Purification System is designed to produce Type I and Type II water from
a tap water source. The Aquanex system includes features such as ergonomic and easy to use smart volumetric Type I
dispense capability, high-capacity de-ionization (DI) technology, water saving capability, easy access consumables, operational
flexibility, connectivity, ease-of-use, and system intelligence.
This user manual provides important details on installation, operation, and maintenance of the Aquanex System to ensure the
consistency of water quality and operation of the system.
1.2 Intended Use
The Aquanex Ultrapure Water Purification System is a general purpose, laboratory benchtop or wall-mount water purification
system, intended to treat tap water (pretreatment required in most cases) to deliver Type I (Ultrapure) and Type II (Pure) water
in a laboratory setting by filtering and treating the tap water with a Reverse Osmosis (RO) assembly, followed by Ultraviolet (UV)
oxidation, deionization and Ultra Filtration (UF) and Point of Use (POU) filtration.
The intended users of the Aquanex System are individuals with experience and training in using laboratory equipments.

2.2 Product Overview
2.2.1 Aquanex Ultrapure Water Purification System Components
Figure 1. Aquanex Ultrapure 10L and 30L Water Purification Systems
The Aquanex Ultrapure Water Purification System (see Figure 1) is comprised of an automated Water Treatment Unit with
intuitive touchscreen interface and an AquanexTM Touch Smart Dispenser for Type I water.
The system is equipped with either a 10L built-in water storage tank or 30L external water storage tank, based on ordered
components.
The dispenser comes with a built-in UI screen that reflects the main display for ease of use and a benchtop dispenser stand
which can be transformed into a wall mount stand. Making changes to the smart dispenser UI screen automatically updates
information on the main screen of the instrument.
Users can select between manual and volumetric dispense operation. Users can also add an optional second smart dispenser
to take advantage of smart dispensing capability on both sides of the system.
The Aquanex System provides flexibility of assembly by supporting both a benchtop or wall-mounted configuration.
The Aquanex System is designed for easy access to consumables to enable quick replacement and hassle-free maintenance.
The system comes with one set of consumables, consisting of (1) RO assembly, (1) UV lamp, (2) Aquanex DI packs, (1) UF filter,
(1) 0.1 µm Point of Use (POU) filter, and (1) CO2 adsorber with filter. The system also comes with all feedwater tubes,
waste-water drain tubes, disinfectant bypass adapters, sterile overflow, and other necessary fittings for initial setup.
In operation, the source tap water is routed through the pretreatment device into the inlet of the Aquanex System’s main unit.
From the main unit, the water is routed to Dispenser 1 (D1) or Dispenser 2 (D2) depending on the configuration chosen by the
user.
A user can also dispense Type II water by adding a hand-held dispenser. In the 30L system, users can also access Type II
water from the tap on the 30L tank.
The Aquanex System helps in protecting the lab environment from leaks in and around the system with a leak detector installed
in the main unit. Additionally, the 30L system has a supplementary external leak detector that can be placed at a desired
location near the system.

12 | Technical Specifications AquanexTM Ultrapure Water Purification System
2.2.2 Modes of Operation
The unit supports the following modes of operation:
•Pack saver mode: The unit automatically operates to increase the lifespan of the Aquanex DI packs based on feedwater
quality and average usage.
•Water saver mode: Saves water compared to pack saver mode by recycling the RO concentrate waste stream and
combining it with source tap water as the feed to the instrument. The waste stream out of the system is reduced in this
mode.
•Dynamic mode: Intelligently switches between water saver and pack saver modes, depending on the feedwater quality.
User can set the transition point.
2.2.3 Pretreatment of Feedwater
To meet feedwater quality requirement, (see Table 7), it is recommended to use external pretreatment, such as the
BarnsteadTM Pretreatment System (P/N 50157886). Pretreatment is intended to protect the RO assembly from particles,
hardness and to eliminate chlorine that can be present in tap feedwater. Barnstead Pretreatment comes with a built-in pressure
reducer to meet the source inlet feedwater pressure requirement for the Aquanex System.
Note: Check feedwater quality at regular intervals.
Note: Absence of adequate pretreatment and the pressure reducer devices may lead to premature failure of the Aquanex
System and its components.
Note: It is recommended to rinse new pretreatment cartridges with a few liters of tap water prior to connecting to the Aquanex
System.
* Use of Barnstead Pretreatment System (P/N 50157886) ensures feedwater meets these requirements.

3 Description of Features
3.1 Description
The Aquanex Ultrapure Water Purification System is an easy-to-use water purification system for use in laboratories. The
system comes with several advantageous features as described below.
The Aquanex System includes (1) Aquanex main unit, (1) Touch Type I smart dispenser, (1) set of consumables, and the
respective tank (10L internal tank or 30L external tank). The system can also be purchased with Barnstead Pretreatment
System. Additional accessories are also available for users to purchase separately.
3.1.1 Aquanex Main Unit
3.1.1.1 Front View
The front part of the Aquanex main unit features the Upper Front Panel, Left DI Pack, Right DI Pack, Consumables Access
Panel, and a CO2 adsorber (see Figure 2).
Figure 2. Aquanex Main Unit – Front View
•Upper Front Panel: This panel houses the touch screen display, a USB port, and the Power ON/OFF button.
•Left and Right DI Packs: The DI packs can slide in and out of the system. The left and right DI packs are
non-interchangeable to provide the correct configuration for deionization and purification. DI packs are labeled A (right)
and B (left) to distinguish from each other but are replaced as a set.
•Consumables Access Panel: This panel is magnetically held in place. It can be easily removed for access to
consumables.

•CO2 Adsorber: The CO2 adsorber is fitted onto the top of the 10L tank in the 10L in-built main unit for air to pass
through the unit without compromising the air quality in the laboratory. For 30L main unit, the CO2 adsorber is fitted on
the 30L tank.
3.1.1.2 Side View
The side views show the Side Access Panels as well as the DI Packs Panels (see Figure 3).
Figure 3. Aquanex Main Unit – Left and Right-Side Views
Aquanex DI Packs: Each side of the main unit has one DI pack. These packs are non-interchangeable with each other. The
docking slot present at the bottom of the panels help the packs to slide into place.
Note: Both the DI packs must be replaced at the same time.
Side Access Panels: The side access panels include fluid tubing ports and electrical connection ports on both sides. Type I
dispenser tubing ports are available on both the sides of the main unit. The system also has tubing ports to dispense Type II
water located on the right-side panel.
The Aquanex system comes with dispenser tubing ports on both left and right side for Type I and Type II (optional) dispenser(s).
All dispenser tubing ports come with a bypass installed in them to protect the unit during shipment (see Figure 4 & Figure 5).
Note: While connecting the dispensers, the user must ensure to remove the bypass from the ports.
