BIOPURE 120: Excellence in Purified Water for Medical Applications
In demanding medical environments, the quality of purified water plays a critical role in infection prevention and patient safety. The BIOPURE 120, designed by Elga, meets these demands with a comprehensive, high-performance, and innovative solution. This water purification system is specifically designed to supply washer-disinfectors and endoscope reprocessors with water that complies with the most stringent standards, directly at the point of use.
The BIOPURE 120 is engineered to deliver exceptionally pure water, crucial for minimizing contamination risks. Thanks to its integrated purification technologies, it ensures optimal water quality:
- Conductivity below 30 µS/cm (or even 5 µS/cm with the Optipure cartridge).
- Near-zero bacterial load, with less than 1 CFU/10 ml.
- Endotoxin levels below 0.25 EU/ml, ideal for sensitive medical applications.
These performance levels are achieved through a combination of highly efficient reverse osmosis membranes and a unique disinfection system that treats both the membranes and the local distribution loop.
The BIOPURE 120 stands out for its compact format, perfect for spaces where room is limited. With optimized dimensions, it can be easily installed under a workbench or in tight areas. Its innovative "wrap-around" reservoir maximizes space while simplifying the management of consumables.
In addition to its reduced footprint, the system is designed for easy installation and maintenance. Its operational weight of 115 kg is perfectly suited for floor mounting, with casters for simplified mobility.
The use of durable materials and advanced technologies allows the BIOPURE 120 to reduce operating costs. Automated alarms and control features, accessible only via an electronic key ("E-key"), protect the system from user errors and extend the lifespan of its components.
Moreover, the system is designed to operate with tap water, reducing the need for costly pretreatment. However, to ensure optimal performance, it is recommended to use a Protek cartridge in cases of fluctuating feedwater quality.
The BIOPURE 120 can produce up to 120 liters of purified water per hour at an inlet temperature of 15°C, with a distribution flow rate of up to 10 liters per minute at 1.5 bar pressure. These features make it an ideal solution for medical facilities of all sizes, whether private clinics, hospitals, or specialized laboratories.
Reliability is at the heart of the BIOPURE 120’s design. Users benefit from advanced features such as:
- Automated alarms to signal performance deviations or maintenance needs.
- Integrated disinfection system, ensuring high-quality water at all times.
- Secure controls via the electronic key, limiting access to critical settings.
- Low noise levels (<60 dBA), for a comfortable user experience in quiet environments.
To meet the demands of medical environments, the BIOPURE 120 adheres to strict safety and performance standards. It is designed to operate with a wide range of feedwater parameters, including a maximum conductivity of 2000 µS/cm, hardness below 250 ppm, and a temperature range of 4°C to 40°C.
Whether supplying washer-disinfectors or endoscope reprocessors, the BIOPURE 120 is an essential solution for ensuring patient safety and compliance with medical standards. Compact, high-performing, and economical, it perfectly meets the needs of healthcare professionals.
