Pretreatment level (first treatment stage)
In the first treatment stage, the tap water is treated with pretreated water: The feed
water is passed through the pretreatment cartridge by means of a membrane pump.
The pretreatment cartridge contains a combination of activated carbon, catalyst and
downstream reverse osmosis. The pretreatment cartridge removes particles, salts and
impurities, e.g. chlorine, from the tap water.
A large proportion of the impurities are discarded by means of a concentrate outlet
(drainage water outlet).
The treated water is stored in the bag for further use. The quality of the treated
water is monitored via a conductivity measuring cell (LFR).
14 Operating Instructions arium® mini plus | arium® mini | arium® mini essential
Device Description
Ultrapure water stage (second treatment stage)
In the second treatment stage, the pretreated water is purified to ultrapure water
(ASTM type 1): The pretreated water stored in the bag (arium
®
mini plus and arium®
mini) or directly fed pretreated water (arium® mini essential) is fed into the ultrapure
water circuit.
The water fed in can be freed from organic residues using an optional UV lamp
(185/254 nm). The pretreated water is then treated using the ultrapure water
cartridge (Scientific Pack).
The quality of the ultrapure water is monitored via a conductivity measuring cell (LFP).
3.5.4 Final Purification Stage
The ultrapure water passes through a final filter as it is dispensed. A sterile filter
or an ultrafilter can be used as a final filter.
3.5.5 Circulation of the Ultrapure Water
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 UV lamp and
the ultrapure water cartridge.
− If there is no interaction with the device, the device automatically switches
to ECO mode.

4.3 Messages in Dispensing Mode
If several messages are active in dispensing mode, the message list can be called up
(see Chapter “4.4 Message List,” page 19). The message list only appears if several
messages are active and at least one water conductivity or temperature message
cannot be displayed. If only one message is active, the message is opened directly
instead of the message list.
Dispensing is not possible when there is an error message. The three buttons for
dispensing can be used, but when you try dispensing, the error message reappears.

7.5 Activating or Deactivating Standby Mode
If no water is dispensed for a long time, the device automatically switches to
standby mode. This ensures more economical and ecological operation. In standby
mode, the pre-stage is no longer active and ultrapure water is no longer in
circulation. Standby mode can also be activated manually.
If the device is manually switched into standby mode while the bag is being
automatically filled, a prompt for further action appears. The filling of the bag can
be canceled immediately, which puts the device in standby mode. If filling is
continued, the device will automatically switch to standby mode.
7.5.1 Automatic ECO Mode
In addition to standby mode, the device also features an ECO function. One minute
after the last operation, recirculation of ultrapure water is stopped and the display
darkens. After another 15 minutes without touching the display, the device
automatically switches to standby mode.

8.2 Maintenance Schedule
Depending on the volume of water dispensed, it may be necessary to change the
consumables more often than specified in the maintenance schedule. If, for example,
sterile water is required, the final filter must be replaced regularly.
It is advisable to replace different consumables in the same maintenance step. This
saves time and water. We recommend that you make a sensible plan for replacing
consumables.
