UHP-360

High Purity Deionization Unit for Point-Of-Use Applications

The UHP-360 has just three hard piping connec­tions. Makeup and polish piping is constructed of
solvent-welded, schedule 80 PVC and the unit’s
electrical connection consists of 120-Volt power
and signal from the storage tank. Standard configu­rations produce up to 12 gpm (57 lpm) of

18.2-megohm of ultra-high purity water with an
option up to 24 gpm (90 lpm).

A warning light provides a visual indication of the
makeup column effluent quality. A recirculating
polishing loop, pressurized by a stainless steel cen­trifugal pump, provides a continuous supply of ul­tra-high purity water to the customer’s in-house
loop. An integral backpressure regulator maintains
this supply at a constant pressure.

The GE UHP-360 provides a reliable supply of high
purity water in a small, efficient package. These sys­tems meet the needs of customers requiring a small
volume of deionized water. Since many small­volume water users also have critical space limita­tions, each GE UHP-360 system arrives pre-piped
and pre-wired for easy installation. All major com­ponents of the system are mounted on a structural
steel frame. Portable ion-exchange columns utilize
hose connections that further ease installation and
service of the UHP-360.

Bacteria are controlled by a 25nm UV disinfection
unit. Bacteria and other particulates are then
trapped in the polishing postfilter, a 0.2 micron
absolute cartridge made of polypropylene media.
System effluent quality is continuously monitored
on a temperature compensated resistivity monitor
which is rack-mounted. Stainless steel pressure
gauges are provided throughout to monitor pres­sures at all points within the UHP-360.

GE UHP-360 is a robust system that can be custom­ized to meet a wide variety of applications.

Whether you are struggling to find more water to
hookup a new tool, or you simply need high purity
water for a rinsing station, the UHP-360 is the per­fect choice for hundreds of point-of-use applications.

Installation

Installing the UHP-360 is simple and fast. Units are
shipped pre-assembled, plumbed and wired to
expedite installation. The portable ion exchange
bottles even incorporate quick disconnects to speed
routine maintenance of the system. Every aspect of
the UHP-360 has been well thought-out to maxi­mize system uptime.

System Design

City water is purified by the UHP-360’s makeup sys­tem through activated carbon, filtration and mixed
bed deionization columns. A stainless steel pump
provides a continuous supply of water at a constant
pressure of 50 psi. To help ensure a continuous
supply of bacteria free water, a 254 nm ultraviolet
disinfection unit and sub-micron absolute filters are
utilized. Water quality is then monitored by online
resistivity instrumentation to guarantee point-of­use quality.

System measures: W 32” D 36” H 72”.

Options

• PP/PVDF/SS Piping

• PE / PVDF storage tanks

• Nitrogen blanketing

• System Redundancy

• 185 nm TOC Reduction UV
