Demineralized water
e
The range of the resistivity value displayed by the CPU is the following:
0.5 - 1.5 M
Ω
cm @25°C.

The use of inadequately demineralized water irreversibly ruins the
hydrogen generation cell.

CAUTION! Failure to comply with the instructions contained in this manual will
void the warranty.
The generator is equipped with a system that detects whether the water used
does not meet the required specifications, in which case a warning signal will be
emitted
(Par. 11.3. List of Warnings)
4.1.
Production of demineralized water
The water for the hydrogen generator must be adequately demineralized. It is
compulsory to use a professional demineralizer that can filter water to values
1 M
Ω
cm @25°C
.
In order to ensure good demineralization, we recommend carefully following the
demineralizer maintenance sheet.
Avoid storing demineralized water for any longer than one month.
4.2.
Bottles of demineralized water
A.
The quality of the water bought in bottles or containers must comply with the
specifications contained in
par.3.2.2.
e
In particular, the resistivity must be 1 M
Ω
cm @25°C
.
B.
look at the expiry date;
C.
do not use the water contained in containers that have been open for more
than a month: the risk that the water has lost its characteristics is very high. It
is strongly recommended to buy small containers;
D.
check before use that the resistivity of the water meets the recommendation,
using a resistivity meter of which you know the uncertainty of measurement
(0.1 M
Ω
cm @25°C)
;
E.
remember to close the bottle carefully after use.
