Ultrapure Water Systems
Ultrapure water is essential for reliable results in analytical, life science, and laboratory applications. As analytical methods become increasingly sensitive, even trace water impurities can compromise accuracy and lead to costly repeat analyses. Consistently high water quality is critical for reproducibility and reliable outcomes.
Arium® Ultrapure Water Systems are modular and customizable solutions designed to produce ASTM Type I ultrapure water. Tailored to your lab’s daily water needs, feedwater quality, and application type, these systems can be configured with optional UV lamps and ultrafilters—ideal for general lab use, sensitive analytical techniques, and life science research.

Frequently Asked Questions
Ultrapure water (Type 1) is free from organic and inorganic contaminants, particulates, bacteria, and pyrogens. It is essential for high-sensitivity applications such as HPLC, PCR, cell culture, and ICP-MS, where even trace impurities can affect results.
Sartorius Arium® Mini, Arium® Pro, and Arium® Advance systems are designed to produce ASTM Type 1 ultrapure water. They meet strict purity standards and can be configured for specific applications like molecular biology, analytical chemistry, and cell-based assays.
Yes, Sartorius ultrapure systems are often used as polishing units, fed by existing Type 2 pure water systems. They further remove any remaining contaminants to deliver high-resistivity, low-TOC ultrapure water suitable for critical lab workflows.
Sartorius systems deliver ultrapure water with a resistivity of 18.2 MΩ·cm and TOC levels as low as ≤ 2 ppb, in compliance with ASTM and ISO 3696 Type 1 standards, ensuring reproducibility and reliability in your experiments.
Yes, for applications like cell culture, qPCR, or working with RNA/DNA, Sartorius systems with built-in ultrafilters remove endotoxins, RNases, DNases, and proteases—helping protect sensitive biological samples from degradation or contamination.
Arium® systems feature real-time monitoring of resistivity, TOC, and flow rates. Optional UV, ultrafiltration, and remote dispensing modules support consistent, ISO-compliant water quality with minimal user intervention.
Yes, Arium® systems offer plug-and-play installation, intuitive touchscreen interfaces, and tool-free cartridge replacement. Smart alerts guide maintenance, helping reduce downtime and user error.
Yes, Sartorius ultrapure water systems meet or exceed ASTM Type 1, ISO 3696, and CLSI guidelines, making them suitable for regulated labs in pharma, biotech, and academic research.
Yes, Sartorius Arium® systems offer flexible configurations to support a wide range of workflows—from molecular biology and cell culture to HPLC and mass spectrometry—making them ideal for multi-use labs.
