Definitions
Within the context of this manual, we use the following
definitions:
•
Deionized (DI) – water that is nearly free from ions,
the most common of which are metals (minerals)
and chlorides. DI water is produced by filtration of
the source water.
•
Mineral-free – water nearly devoid of all mineral
contamination.
•
Total dissolved solids (TDS) – the mineral content of
a water sample.
•
Parts per million (ppm) – the scale used to measure
mineral content of a water sample.
•
Distilled water – water that is mostly free from ions.
Distilled water is produced by vaporizing and
condensing the source water.
Warnings
The DI water produced by the Mineral Mizer is not
recommended for human consumption. Although there
is no FDA warning concerning such consumption, some
believe that mineral-free waters leach minerals from the
body. O-SO Pure makes no claims concerning the fitness
of the Mineral Mizer’s DI water for human consumption.
The Mineral Mizer does not produce bacteria-free water
nor does it attempt to sanitize or disinfect the water.
Feed water must be microbiologically safe.
Caution
The Mineral Mizer must be protected against
•
freezing temperatures
•
excessive heat
•
excessive water pressure
•
water hammer.
Failure to do so may result in breakage of water bearing
components and water leakage.
O-SO Pure recommends that feed water to the Mineral
Mizer be turned off when the office is unattended.
Introduction
Congratulations on your purchase of the Mineral Mizer autoclave water system. The Mineral Mizer produces
deionized (DI) water from tap water, allowing you to exit
the boiled & bottled distilled water hamster wheel. When
routinely serviced, your Mineral Mizer will economically &
reliably deliver all of your DI water needs for years to
come.
The DI water produced by the Mineral Mizer normally
registers at 000-002 parts per million (ppm) on a handheld
total dissolved solids (TDS) tester.
Applications
Use the Mineral Mizer’s DI water for the following
applications:
•
Autoclaves & Sterilizers
– Scale formation in the boiler
is the leading cause of autoclave & sterilizer service
calls. Tap water causes film and scale that lead to
thermal inefficiency, increased maintenance and
downtime. Mineral Mizer’s DI water is even suitable
for sterilizers programmed to reject water when
mineral content exceeds a predetermined level.
•
Irons and Steamers
- Prevent scale buildup in
appliances that boil water by using DI water instead of
tap water.
•
Distilled water applications -
The DI water produced
by the Mineral Mizer can be used for any application
calling for distilled water.
Now you can relax and enjoy the benefits of creating your
mineral-free DI water on-site. No more:
•
strain & injury from carrying heavy bottles from
storage and lifting them onto dispensers.
•
trips to the grocery store to purchase distilled water
bottles.
•
waiting for the on-site distiller to drip out a gallon of
water while spinning the electric meter
.
Your equipment will benefit from the great water quality. Employees will love life without bottled water. You’ll
feel great about the green you save and the greening of your business by converting tap water directly into
mineral-free DI water.
