IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
The intended use of this equipment is to distill water to be used in steam sterilization
autoclaves or any other application where it is necessary to use distilled water. In order
to determinate the quality of the water obtained with the use of the Cristófoli Distiller,
we have used the reference parameters found on the Table C.1 from the Standard EN
13060, Annex C “
Suggested maximum limits of contaminants in and specification for
water for steam sterilization ” (Page 20). In some specific cases, it may be necessary
that the water is purified by special processes. Check whether the parameters
obtained satisfy your needs.
It is essential that the operator reads attentively all the
instructions before using the distiller to make sure they are correctly understood.
