Milli-Q® CLX 7000: a Series of Water Purification Systems Designed for Demanding Clinical Environments
In clinical laboratories, where analysers process thousands of samples every day, the quality and availability of purified water are essential. Millipore's Milli-Q® CLX 7000 series has been specially developed to meet these requirements, ensuring a continuous supply of CLRW-quality water that complies with CLSI® standards. It is ideal for installations with requirements of up to 3,000 litres of water per day.
Based on patented Elix® technology, these systems ensure consistent pure water production without the use of single-use resin cylinders. The Elix® module works by electrodialysis, maintaining a resistivity greater than 15 MΩ ·cm at 25 °C. This process significantly reduces maintenance requirements while ensuring stable performance, even with variable feed water.
The integrated E.R.A.® (Evolutive Reject Adjustment) module enables intelligent water consumption management, optimising rejection based on the quality of the incoming water. This system reduces waste, extends the service life of consumables and lowers operating costs.
Three UV lamps ensure continuous disinfection: during production, in the tank, and in the distribution loop via a 0.22 μm sterilising filter. This guarantees optimal control of bacterial contamination, limits manual disinfection operations, and ensures analytical performance.
The user interface includes a multilingual touchscreen that displays essential parameters (water quality, stored volume, consumable status) in real time. Early alerts facilitate maintenance, while the MyMilli-Q™ Remote Care platform provides remote access to data, diagnostics, and device management for maximum availability.
Each model in the series (CLX 7040, 7080, 7120, 7150) is distinguished by its production and storage capacity, meeting the needs of both small and large installations. All are CE, cULus and FCC certified and manufactured in an ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 certified facility.
Compact, mobile and quiet, the Milli-Q® CLX 7000 series units fit easily into laboratory spaces. Thanks to their functionality, reliability and ease of maintenance, they are the optimal choice for any organisation seeking performance, regulatory compliance and cost reduction.
