Type 1 and Type 3 Water from Potable Tap Water

The Neptec TRITON 12 is a compact laboratory water system developed to produce both Type 3 pure water and Type 1 ultrapure water directly from potable tap water. The system combines integrated pretreatment, reverse osmosis, a 50 litre storage tank and a final ultrapure polishing stage into one modular solution for laboratories that need two water qualities from a single installation.

According to the product datasheet, the TRITON 12 provides a pure water production rate of 12 L/h and stores Type 3 water in a 50 L tank. The final point-of-use polishing stage delivers ASTM Type 1 ultrapure water up to 18.2 MΩ·cm (0.055 µS/cm), allowing the same system to support both routine and critical laboratory applications. :contentReference[oaicite:1]{index=1}

Designed for Daily Laboratory Water Consumption and Analytical Work

The stored Type 3 water can be used for routine laboratory needs such as supplying autoclaves, laboratory dishwashers and other general-purpose systems. The operating manual for the TRITON RO platform explicitly states that this type of pure water is intended for applications such as feeding autoclaves, washers and downstream ultrapure water systems. :contentReference[oaicite:2]{index=2}

At the same time, the TRITON 12 also provides ultrapure Type 1 water for sensitive analytical procedures. This makes it suitable for HPLC, ion chromatography, AAS, reagent preparation and other workflows where ionic, microbiological and organic contamination must be minimized.

Compact Design with Integrated Touchscreen

One of the key differentiators of the TRITON range is its very compact footprint. The TRITON 12 combines the production unit with an integrated touchscreen interface and dispensing point, making it easy to integrate into laboratories where available bench or furniture space is limited. Compared with the TRITON 6, the key advantage of the TRITON 12 is the higher pure water production rate while maintaining the same compact system concept.

The large touchscreen supports intuitive system control, monitoring and data capture via USB. The interface displays conductivity, temperature, tank level and warning messages, helping the user monitor both the pure water production process and the final water quality.

50 L Tank with Protected Type 3 Water Storage

The 50 litre tank is designed to maintain pure water quality during storage. According to the datasheet, it includes a sloped bottom, sterile overflow and sterile vent filter to protect the stored water against external contamination. The tank level can be adjusted and monitored in 1% steps, and optional UV disinfection is available for additional control. :contentReference[oaicite:5]{index=5}

The tank provides a practical buffer for laboratories with more frequent water demand, while the Type 1 point-of-use polishing ensures ultrapure water is available for critical analytical work whenever needed.

German-Made Reliability with Local BeNeLux Service
