You have a quality, world class water treatment system that will provide ultrapure water
for many years of trouble-free operation. Years of engineering and experience went into
the design and manufacture of this instrument which will dispense water exceeding Type
I water purity standards.

Installation and service of the equipment should be performed by authorized and trained
personnel. Safety measures and local guidelines must be followed. Use good practices
wearing personal protective equipment (PPE) during the installation and service of the
equipment.
Electricity – Auto Pure lab water equipment should be powered by a grounded GFI electrical
connection. Do not open the system unless the system is unplugged. Before any installation
or service is performed on the equipment, make sure the power is isolated. To unplug the
system, do not pull directly on the cord but grip the plug and remove it from
the outlet.
Ultraviolet Light – Auto Pure lab water systems may include an ultraviolet light lamp in a
stainless-steel housing. Make sure all power is removed prior to accessing the side panel to
perform any UV maintenance. Make sure gloves are used when handling the UV bulb.
(Gloves must be worn when handling the UV bulb. Which protects the integrity of the bulb)
Do not look directly at the UV lamp while the system is operating.
Water Supply – Good piping practices should be followed feeding water to the lab equipment.
Isolation valves, pressure gauges and bleed valves are recommended on the main water
supply. Pressure should be regulated to meet the minimum and maximum specifications
stated for the equipment.
Sanitization – Make sure PPE is worn during any sanitization process. The Phoenix system
uses chlorine dioxide gas as a disinfectant. Gas is generated within the system, but the
chlorine dioxide gas will be discharged during sampling and flushing sequences. Chlorine
dioxide gas is a respiratory irritant. Avoid breathing fumes and ensure the area is sufficiently
ventilated.

HEALTH AND SAFETY

The Auto Pure Lab water system delivers Type 1, 18 MΩ quality water on demand. Water is
purified in a staged process consisting of high-purity ion exchange resins to remove dissolved
minerals and internal recirculation to maintain purity. At discharge, a final 0.2µm filter removes
particulates and bacteria to attain CLSI / ASTM Type 1 water specifications. Additional optional
technologies are incorporated depending on model. Resistivity monitor provides feedback of the
final water quality.
The Auto Pure system is designed to recirculate through multiple technologies to maintain purity.
At designated periods, the system will transition from “Polishing” mode to “Stand By” mode and
the recirculation pump, solenoid, and UV (if installed) will be automatically turned off via the PLC
Controller. The main screen provides resistivity, TOC (if installed) and the life of the consumables.
The status bars will transition from green, to yellow and to red. The user will still be able to operate
the unit during all of these conditions. The unit comes with a built in Leak Detector and when
alarmed, it will automatically shut down the system. Alarms and service events are conveniently
logged. The unit comes with volumetric dispensing and provides the user six different batch sizes.
The user can enter in a numeric value, in mL units, for repeated dispensing. A button is pressed
and it will stop automatically once the limit has been reached.

The UV system is designed to reduce bacteria and oxidize Total Organic Carbon (TOC).
The bulb produces a dual wavelength of 185 / 254 nm and will irradiate the water. The UV
bulb is protected with a quartz sleeve within the stainless steel chamber. Each system that
has this option will have the bulb shipped factory installed with the unit. It is important to
verify and inspect the UV bulb prior to commissioning (see UV Bulb Replacement Section)
CAUTION!Wear gloves when handling the UV bulb to avoid contamination and
reduced service life.
CAUTION!Never look directly at the UV bulb while in operation.
An LED, located by the dual pack mechanism, is pro-vided to give visual indication when
the UV Bulb is on. The UV will turn on during POLISHING mode and will be off during
STANDBY mode.
