Consumables
Diagram
The water flow through a Milli-Q System is shown here in a flow diagram.
The various consumables are described below. For more information about
the flow diagram, please refer to the Milli-Q System brochure. Please contact
Millipore if you would like to have a brochure.
(A simplified flow diagram will be shown here. Only the consumables will
be explained through the use of the diagram. The reader/customer will be
able to learn more from the Marketing Brochure which typically has a flow
diagram and description).

Lamp
Quantum
Cartridge
The purpose of the Progard Pack is to protect the RO Cartridge.
The Progard Pack is a consumable.
Note to Millipore reviewers Æ Do you want a table showing the differences
between the various Progard Packs (i.e. with Chlorine tablet, without chlorine
tablet, …)?
The dual wavelength UV 185 nm Lamp emits light at 185 nm (for TOC
reduction) and at 254 nm (Germicidal action). The UV 185 nm Lamp is used
to kill bacteria and to reduce the levels of organic molecules in the water.
The UV 185 nm Lamp is a consumable.
The Quantum Cartridge is used to remove trace levels of ions and organic
molecules.
The Quantum Cartridge is a consumable.
Item Description
Quantum TIX
Cartridge
The Quantum TIX Cartridge contains only ion
exchange resin. This type of Quantum Cartridge is
used when maintaining absolutely trace levels of ions is
critical.
Quantum TEX
Cartridge
The Quantum TEX Cartridge contains ion exchange
resin and synthetic carbon. These purification media
are used when the Milli-Q Water needs to have both
trace levels of ions and trace levels of organic
molecules.

UV 254 nm
Lamp
A10 TOC
Monitor Lamp
POD Pak
The UV 254 nm Lamp emits light at 254 nm. The UV 254 nm Lamp is used
to kill bacteria.
The UV 254 nm Lamp is a consumable.
The A10 TOC Monitor uses a small lamp during its TOC Analysis Mode.
This is called the A10 Lamp.
The A10 Lamp is a consumable.
The POD Pak is a water purification device that is attached to the Q-POD
Dispenser outlet. It is the final purification device used before Milli-Q Water
is dispensed. The POD Pak provides additional quality and insurance that
trace contaminants related to specific applications are removed just before
ultrapure water is delivered.
The POD Pak is a consumable.
The LCD messages sometimes refer to POD Pak 1 or POD Pak 2 (or 3).
POD Pak 1 means the POD Pak on the 1st Q-POD Dispenser. POD Pak 2
refers to the POD Pak installed on a second Q-POD Dispenser.
Note to Millipore reviewer Æ The various POD Paks are not described in this
section. There are new POD Paks coming out in Y2007 and it is better to
avoid revising the User Manual frequently.
