Laboratories Services
Puretech Water Systems (UK) Ltd offers a wide range of reverse osmosis and water softening plants to Laboratories.
Laboratories demand a consistent grade of ultra-purified water. This is typical, given that a high-quality supply is required to serve laboratories analysers and used to provide a base solution for various reagents. In contrast to the use of pure water in processes, laboratories also use purified water for cleaning. For example, various glassware that is used within the laboratory environment requires pure water for washing.
The Solution
Laboratories often need centralised water systems that continually supply laboratory grade water. To demonstrate, there are three grades of ultra-pure water our systems support. In brief, this includes Type I, II and III water. At any rate, the importance of providing bespoke designs and solutions that meet specific criteria for laboratories is key. As well as offering these bespoke solutions, water softeners and other systems are available from our existing comprehensive portfolio.
Conclusion
In essence, we maintain numerous reverse osmosis systems and water softeners for laboratories around the United Kingdom. Without a doubt, a consistent pure water supply is an integral part to any laboratory. On the whole the optimisation and efficiency of these plants are essential. Coupled with this understanding and through setting high standards, delivering the best service possible is of distinguished importance.
In conclusion, many of our clients invest in our water purification solutions. To summarise, we design, manufacture, install and maintain many reverse osmosis and water softening systems for this sector.
Our System
What is a Water Softener?
A water softener is used to remove hardness from the incoming towns mains water supply.
For instance, this is achieved by removing the calcium and magnesium ions. These ions would otherwise cause scaling within a water system. Scaling can present itself in many ways.
Below is a list of the most common effects of scaling;
- Water heaters scaling impedes on their ability to heat water efficiently.
- Scaling on glassware such as shower screens and glasses is unhygienic and cosmetically unappealing.
- The scaling on tap outlets and scale build up within water holding tanks can have detrimental effects on systems.
Water softeners remove the calcium and magnesium ions and traps them on its filter surface which acts as a magnet.
Therefore, we exchange these calcium and magnesium ions for sodium ions which, in turn, creates softened water. Summing up, this results in water ready for consumption.

How does Reverse Osmosis work?
Reverse Osmosis is a high-pressure water process which forces water to be treated through a semi permeable reverse osmosis membrane. So, the membrane has two outlet channels. One being the permeate water (Purified) which passes the heavily filtered water onto the point of use application. This purified water typically has around 98% of the incoming contaminants removed, such as dissolved salts, bacteria, organics and pyrogens.
On the other hand, the other outlet is where the rejected water (Concentrate) is sent directly to drain.
In some cases, this concentrate water can be re-circulated back to the front of the reverse osmosis plant and re-processed. In conclusion, this particular process can significantly reduce water wastage.
