− Never unplug any cables from your arium
®
pro when it is running as this can
cause malfunctions.
Intended Usage
The arium
®
pro water purification system is designed to provide ultrapure water for
the laboratory from water pretreated by distillation, deionization or reverse osmosis.
To make sure that these units work properly, only use the filter media and equipment
listed in this operating manual. Any other use beyond this is considered improper
use.
− The arium
®
pro system may only be operated by trained personnel.
− Only operate your arium® pro system with original accessories or replacement

arium
®
pro front view
1. Display and control panel
2. Sampling with sterile final filter
3. Door
The arium
®
pro system was designed to provide ASTM, NCCLS, ISO and USP-grade
water. Multi-stage purification methods purify pretreated water into ultrapure water
by distillation, deionization or reverse osmosis. This involves the use of purification
processes based on mixed-bed resins, activated carbon, and sterile filtration.
As the flow diagram on the next page shows, the feed water is pumped through two
ultrapure water cartridges connected in series. At the outlet of the second cartridge,
a conductivity-measuring cell performs permanent monitoring of the ultrapure
water quality (LFP).
To guarantee ultrapure water of consistent and high quality, the ultrapure water
purification system is constructed like a circulation ring. If no water is dispensed,
the water circulates through the ultrapure water cartridges. The last purification
step before dispensing is to run the water through a sterile final filter.

Product Description
1.3 arium® Exchange Interface
The arium® Exchange interface enables communication with an arium® advance
system. When such a cable is connected, the arium® bagtank (< 2 liters) will stop
dispensing water if the fill level of the arium® pro system falls below the minimum.
This is to prevent any malfunction of the arium® pro system.
Use the Firewire cable delivered with the arium
®
pro system for device communication when supplying the arium® advance from a bagtank. To guarantee proper
functioning, first switch on the arium® advance and then the arium® pro system.
A bagtank with an integrated pump must be used when supplying the arium
®
pro
system from a bagtank, otherwise this could lead to malfunctioning. A bagtank 20
can be used without a pump as well, as long as it is positioned at the same height or
higher than the arium® pro system.
