The purity of the water used in dialysis is critical to effectively and efficiently clean the blood of patients. Impurities such as chlorine and chloramines in the water and system can cause health problems with the patient, requiring a subsequent increase in medicines used for treatment. The removal of bacteria and endotoxins from central renal dialysis loops is also essential.

SPECTRUM PWS Duplex
For uninterrupted softened water supply, the SPECTRUM PWS range is an upgrade to SWS Simplex systems. With two vessels included, the PWS softener is controlled by an industry renowned Fleck valve, which operates softened water production from one vessel whilst the second vessel regenerates, ensuring no downtime.
SPECTRUM 870 Premier Carbon Block Cartridge
SPECTRUM premier carbon cartridge offers chloramine reduction and has the highest capacity taste and odour reduction in the range. WRAS approved.
SPECTRUM TruDepth Standard Spun-Bonded Cartridge
Boasting WRAS approval over the ESP, the TruDepth Standard is the best value option for general particulate reduction. With a recognisable mini-grooved construction, the SSP has a higher surface area and enhanced dirt holding capacity over the TruDepth Economic cartridge (ESP).
