Type 1 Ultrapure Water from Pre-Treated Feed Water

The Neptec HALIOS produces ASTM Type 1 ultrapure water from pre-treated feed water such as reverse osmosis water, distilled water, deionized water or electrodeionized water. The system uses a combination of pretreatment cartridges, polishing cartridges and optional advanced purification technologies to deliver ultrapure water with a resistivity of up to 18.2 MΩ·cm. :contentReference[oaicite:1]{index=1}

Ultrapure water generated by HALIOS is suitable for highly sensitive analytical techniques including HPLC, ion chromatography, atomic absorption spectrometry and ultra-trace analysis. It is also commonly used in reagent preparation, buffer preparation and cell culture media preparation where extremely low ionic and organic contamination is required. :contentReference[oaicite:2]{index=2}

External Dispenser with Adjustable Height and 360° Rotation

The defining feature of the HALIOS range is its external tabletop dispenser. This dispenser includes a 5" touchscreen display for system control and monitoring, as well as a rotary control wheel for precise volume dispensing. The dispenser arm allows continuous height adjustment and 360° rotation to accommodate different types of glassware or containers. :contentReference[oaicite:3]{index=3}

The dispenser handle can also be detached from its holder, providing additional flexibility when filling large containers or vessels positioned away from the main dispensing point. A sterile 0.2 µm filter capsule at the outlet ensures the final removal of particles and microorganisms. :contentReference[oaicite:4]{index=4}

Flexible Installation for Laboratory Furniture Integration

Because the production unit and dispenser are separate components, the purification unit can be installed under the laboratory bench, inside technical cabinets or mounted on the wall. This helps laboratories maximize valuable bench space while maintaining easy access to ultrapure water dispensing.

The HALIOS system can also operate with up to three dispensers connected to the same production unit, allowing multiple workstations to access ultrapure water simultaneously in larger laboratories. :contentReference[oaicite:5]{index=5}

Continuous Recirculation for Consistent Water Quality

When no water is being dispensed, the HALIOS system automatically alternates between standby and circulation modes. During circulation mode, ultrapure water continuously passes through the purification stages and dispenser lines to maintain the highest possible microbiological purity and stable water quality. :contentReference[oaicite:6]{index=6}

This continuous recirculation helps maintain consistently low TOC levels and prevents microbial growth within the system.
