2 Page115 Wateris allwedo. Weknow water. We understand it is critical for clinical analyzers to receive a constant and reliable supply of compliant water to attain accurate and reproducible diagnostic test results. Water quality that is below accepted standards affects the chemistry of the tests and the general operation of the analyzer. This reduces the accuracy of the results and increases calibration times and reagent costs. Water is vital to many different stages of the clinical analyzer process Purified water is used as a zero/baseline standard in clinical chemistry tests and if the levels of certain ions (e.g. Ca 2+, Mg 2+, PO 4 3-, HCO 3- ) are not optimal then this will affect the calibration stability and reduce assay sensitivity. Likewise, bacterial by-products, most notably alkaline phosphatase, can interfere with enzymebased immunoassays At ELGA we have combined experience gained from 50 years of innovating water purification technologies and working in partnership with major clinical diagnostics companies, to design our unrivalled range. Our reliable, compact water purification systems with in-built wrap-around reservoirs occupy a minimal amount of precious lab space. Constructed from the highest quality components, the range ensures bacterial control and optimal purity, as well as an uninterrupted workflow. Built-in technology results in predictable, low consumable and running costs with the highest water quality. All units have a bypass loop which continues to provide compliant water to the analyzer in emergency situations. 1 Cuvette wash station Consistent high quality water for effective cuvette washing, eliminating carry over and contamination 2 Diagrammatic view of how purified water is used in a clinical analyzer Sample probe and wash station Consistent high quality water increases calibration stability and eliminates sample to sample cross contamination 4 Internal reservoir UV and 0.2 micron filter for bacterial and particle control, reducing bacterial contamination 5 4 Reagent probe and wash station Consistent high quality and bacterial free water delivers longer reagent stability and eliminates reagent to reagent contamination 3 Pipetting Syringes 6 Incubator bath High quality particle free water for more accurate and precise pipetting of Bacteria and particle free water for accurate and precise photometric readings both sample and reagent Page 4 of 22

Challenge Operating with and adhering to a tight annual budget, you want the lowest cost of ownership and a long-serving piece of equipment Lab or plant room space is at a premium, therefore, only a small area is available for a water purification unit You need reliability and ease-ofuse, while demanding schedules limit the time you can spend on water unit maintenance Microbial and inorganic specifications consistently meet the CLRW standard and bacteria specification of <10 CFU/ml Solution A pre-installation site survey provides realistic information on the cost of ownership resulting in no surprises. Robust deionization processes provide a constant supply of high purity water at minimal running costs Built-in wrap-around 25 liter reservoir contributes to the smallest footprint for this water specification. This flexibility allows units to be positioned either under or on top of a bench, or mounted on the wall systems self monitor during operation and exhaustion of consumables is indicated by software on an easy-to-read display Bacterial specification is ensured with purified water recirculating throughout all the purification processes.
