Water systems are an essential part of any modern laboratory where reliable water purification is required. Laboratory water plays a crucial role in scientific research, as its quality directly impacts the results of experiments, analyses, and production processes. Let’s explore the importance of high-quality water in laboratories, the types of Watrex water systems, and their applications in the laboratory environment.<h3>The Importance of Water Quality in the Laboratory</h3>Water is used in a wide range of laboratory operations, from preparing solutions and media, to washing laboratory glassware, and in specific analytical methods such as HPLC (High-Performance Liquid Chromatography), ICP-MS (Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry), or PCR (Polymerase Chain Reaction). High-quality water is essential for achieving reproducible and accurate results, as any contamination can lead to errors in experiments, resulting in loss of time, resources, and sometimes even damage to sensitive equipment.<h3>Classification of Laboratory Water</h3>Laboratory water is typically classified into several grades based on its level of purity:1. Deionized Water (DI Water): This water has been treated using mixed-bed ion exchangers, which remove most ionic contaminants. It is often used in less sensitive applications, such as washing glassware and preparing certain solutions.2. Reverse Osmosis Water (RO Water): This type of water is purified through reverse osmosis, a process that removes up to 99% of dissolved salts and organic substances. RO water is suitable for many laboratory applications but may require further purification for higher purity in some cases.3. Ultrapure Water (UP Water): This is the highest grade of water purity, achieved through a combination of methods including deionization, reverse osmosis, ultrafiltration, and UV sterilization. UP water is essential for applications where even minimal contamination could affect results, such as in liquid chromatography, molecular biology, or pharmaceutical research.<h3>Types of Watrex Water Systems for Laboratories</h3><a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://watrex.com/?s=sci-aqua+rowapur&amp;post_type=product&amp;dgwt_wcas=1?utm_source=labrulez&amp;utm_medium=propagace&amp;utm_campaign=labrulez_produkty">SCI-AQUA ROWAPUR</a>: SCI-AQUA ROWAPUR systems are simple and economical, making them ideal for laboratories.

Clean Water for Quality Results: Rely on Our Water Systems

In analytical laboratories, precise handling of mobile phases and waste solvents is crucial to ensuring the reliability of chromatographic analyses and workplace safety. An essential part of this process is monitoring the levels of these liquids. <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://watrex.com/obchod/chromatography/dedicated-instruments/lss-205-starter-kit/?utm_source=labrulez&amp;utm_medium=propagace&amp;utm_campaign=labrulez_produkty">The Watrex Liquid Sensing System LSS-205</a> offers a revolutionary solution that automates this task and reduces the risk of errors caused by human factors.<blockquote>Price: 578<bdi>&nbsp;€ ex VAT</bdi></blockquote><h3>Using the LSS-205</h3><a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://watrex.com/obchod/chromatography/dedicated-instruments/lss-205-starter-kit/?utm_source=labrulez&amp;utm_medium=propagace&amp;utm_campaign=labrulez_produkty">The Watrex LSS-205</a> is a universal device designed to monitor liquid levels in any analytical system. The device is equipped with non-contact level sensors that do not require immersion in the liquid. These sensors are installed on the external surface of a non-metallic container, allowing them to be used on containers of virtually any shape and size. This effectively monitors both the solvent supply to the system and the condition of the waste solvent containers.<img src="https://storage.googleapis.com/labrulez-bucket-strapi-h3hsga3/Watrex_Level_sensors_installed_on_bottles_with_mobile_phases_5ed9d1742f.jpg" alt="Watrex - Level sensors installed on bottles with mobile phases..jpg" srcset="https://storage.googleapis.com/labrulez-bucket-strapi-h3hsga3/thumbnail_Watrex_Level_sensors_installed_on_bottles_with_mobile_phases_5ed9d1742f.jpg 234w," sizes="100vw" width="1737" height="1156"><h3>Functionality and Signaling</h3>The central unit of the LSS-205 can process signals from up to five level sensors simultaneously. Each of these sensors can be individually configured to trigger an alarm when the absence or presence of liquid is detected. When a deviation from the normal state is detected, this information is immediately indicated optically on the central unit. The optical signal is further supported by an acoustic alert, ensuring that the operator is promptly informed of the issue.<img src="https://storage.googleapis.com/labrulez-bucket-strapi-h3hsga3/Watrex_The_connected_central_unit_and_green_monitor_light_indicating_that_the_mobile_phase_level_has_not_yet_dropped_below_the_set_level_dda36a33f4.jpg" alt="Watrex: The connected central unit and green monitor light indicating that the mobile phase level has not yet dropped below the set level." srcset="https://storage.googleapis.com/labrulez-bucket-strapi-h3hsga3/thumbnail_Watrex_The_connected_central_unit_and_green_monitor_light_indicating_that_the_mobile_phase_level_has_not_yet_dropped_below_the_set_level_dda36a33f4.jpg 235w," sizes="100vw" width="1814" height="1207"><h3>Components and Connectivity</h3>The basic LSS-205 set includes not only the central unit and sensor but also an external optical signal, which uses color coding (green/red) for easy navigation. For more demanding environments where a standard alarm might go unnoticed, a loud siren is available as an optional feature. The device is also equipped with a microUSB connector for PC connection, allowing easy integration with other laboratory systems and more sophisticated liquid level record management.<figure class="image"><img style="aspect-ratio:2419/825;" src="https://storage.googleapis.com/labrulez-bucket-strapi-h3hsga3/Watrex_Example_of_LSS_205_components_From_left_level_sensor_central_unit_and_traffic_light_for_optical_signaling_00ad52dd60.jpg" alt="Watrex: Example of LSS-205 components.
