Millipore Milli-Q Lab Water System

The Milli-Q is a device designed to purify water for use in laboratory and high tech applications.

The basic Milli-Q consists of a pump, a resistivity meter, filter housings and replaceable filters.

These systems were produced in Blue and Beige.

The Blue systems were early versions and were made with PVC plastics which was found to contribute high levels of total organic carbon in the product water. The Beige systems were the second generation and�along with a color change, the replaced the PVC parts with polypropylene which greatly lowered the organic contamination. All of these system might have been labeled as Continental Water Systems, Continental/Millipore Water Systems or simple Millipore�Water Systems. The placement of the meter was found both on the left and right side of the system depending on when it was made.
Although these systems have not been manufacturers for over 20 years, replacement filters and some parts are available at LabWater.com
