One of the most important areas for water quality in a hospital. Water is used to clean instruments and critical components of systems used during operations and procedures on patients. Water for the water disinfectors should be softened whereas water used in the production of clean steam or treated steam for the autoclaves, must be of very high purity to remove bacteria, salts, ions and other elements that may cause cross-contamination.
Storage tanks benefit from the use of air vent filtration to prevent airborne bacterial contamination and the same air vent filter is used on the autoclave itself as a vacuum break.
Stages of Filtration & Water Treatment
Hardness Removal
Prevents scale build up on tanks, pipework and equipment.
SPECTRUM PWS Duplex
Typically used
WTP-SOFT350DChlorine and Organics Removal
Helps the taste and odour of the liquid and where present, protects RO membranes from chemical attack.
Pentair Fibredyne CFB-Plus Carbon Block Cartridge
Typically used
CFB-PLUS20BBPentair 10″ / 20″ Big Blue Plastic Housings
Typically used
BB20BL3/4"Particle Removal
Prevents debris, scale flakes, dirt and particle build up in pipework, tanks, equipment and where present, premature blinding of filtration stages further along the cascade.
SPECTRUM TruDepth Standard Spun-Bonded Cartridge
Typically used
SSP-5-20BBPentair 10″ / 20″ Big Blue Plastic Housings
Typically used
BB20BL3/4"Ion and Salt Reduction
Very pure water is produced using reverse osmosis membranes to separate the majority of salts and ions from the feed water and sending the salts and ions to waste or re-circulation.
SPECTRUM Reverse Osmosis System
Typically used
SRO-SYS-10Bacteria Removal
Reducing the levels of bacteria to log 7
SPECTRUM Premier Pleat Polyethersulfone
Typically used
PPPES-0.2-20EHSSterile Services – Pure Water Production
Typically used
SFH-SPC-5-20-GP-MTAirborne Bacteria Removal
Removal of airborne bacteria to prevent contamination of stored liquid.
SPECTRUM Premier Pleat Air Vent
Typically used
PPPTFE-0.1-3-1/2BSPMTFeatured Products
SPECTRUM SWS Simplex
Designed for use in commercial and industrial soft water applications, these systems can produce up to 116 lpm and therefore ideally suited where product water is stored in a tank, or demand for softened water is intermittent. System comes complete with vessel, valve, brine tank and salt.
SPECTRUM Reverse Osmosis System
SPECTRUM RO Systems designed for commercial & industrial operators. 4 systems available to meet RO production levels of 150 to 1250 litres per hour.
SPECTRUM Premier Pleat Air Vent
Premier Pleat Air Vent filters have been designed for use with storage tanks and as a vacuum break on autoclaves to allow venting and for removal of airborne bacteria and viruses.
