We use this in our autoclaves. It works quite well, takes tap water, and no permanent installation, and its not affected our autoclaves which we have been running using this system for about 2 years. We have a large tuttnauer and a small one too. All running smoothly. No buildup or staining. TDS meter reads zero (thanks to ion resin) and we use this water for media (plants and bacteria). Wish I had the model number but its somewhere filed away.

Hi all,We recently obtained a melag euroklav off ebay, and it's brilliantly easy to use, but it's using a lot of our stock of deionized water.I am thinking about proposing we get a reverse osmosis system for the lab, something like this;I was wondering whether anyone had any comments, or experiences of RO filter systems for use in a microbial lab..
I don't know too much about RO systems, but years ago I helped install one on a farm/ranch where they had spring water. Since this was in a semi-arid climate, and thus water was a limited resource, there was concern that the filters used a lot of water to backflush and clean them out. I bring this up as I wonder if you would need to backflush with sterile water, to prevent contamination from lodging itself onto the clean side of the filter, leaving a looming latent contamination problem.
