In some cases the need for single pass even with
hot water rinsing is considered not enough. Fresenius Medical Care has
therefore brought together two proven systems to provide a package of Aquasafe
08 and AquaHWCS. The result is the Aquasafe DUO HWCS. This product combines
all the benefits provided by both the Aquasafe 08 and the AquaHWCS.
Advantages of Aquasafe DUO HWCS:
-
Includes all features and benefits associated
with the Aquasafe 08 and the AquaHWCS relating to microbiological purity,
technical safety and economical operation
-
Choice of hot water rinsing and / or
semi-automatic conductivity controlled chemical disinfection
-
Fully integrated hot water option of the second
stage reverse osmosis membranes, distribution loop and machines
-

CDS08
The CDS 08 is at the center of a modern and
economical central concentrate delivery system. The microprocessor-controlled
unit provides economic and accurate delivery of the concentrate via a
circulating distribution loop. The circulation of the dialysis concentrate(s)
starts at the bulk concentrate storage tank(s). When linked to a media supply
center, the dialysis machine can draw off the required volume of dialysis
concentrate. Surplus dialysis concentrate is returned into the cycle of the
central concentrate supply avoiding wastage.
Advantages of CDS 08:
-
Ultrafiltration filters provided added
protection against the entry of particles, bacteria, endotoxin and air into
the existing distribution loop
-
Circulating distribution loop for added quality
control
-
Automatic warning and change over of bulk
concentrate containers
-
Minimizes wastage, spillages, concentrate
handling, disposal of empty containers
The Granumix is a custom designed unit for the
dissolution of dry concentrate products (Fresenius Medical Care Granudial)
using reverse osmosis permeates water. The unit provides a quick, easy and
economical method for the in house preparation of high quality liquid
concentrate.
Advantages of Granumix:
With all our units a range of options are
available to add security and reliability e.g. remote control / nurse alarms,
leakage detectors, online water hardness monitors etc. We also have our own
project engineering and installation teams so we can discuss, design, deliver,
install and service your water treatment or concentrate delivery system.
