Healthcare & Laboratory Water Treatment
FILTEC provides healthcare water treatment solutions for hospitals, clinics, and laboratories—supplying ultrapure, CSSD, and drinking-water systems that protect patient care, research accuracy, and asset longevity.
Healthcare & Laboratory Water Treatment Solutions
Sterilisation & CSSD Water Treatment
Dedicated high-purity loops deliver low-conductivity, low-silica water for autoclaves and washer-disinfectors, preventing mineral deposits and maintaining instrument performance. These medical water treatment systems comply with AS/NZS 4187 hardness and conductivity thresholds.
Water purification for Laboratories (Type I, II & III)
FILTEC supplies healthcare and laboratory water treatment systems that produce purified water for research, diagnostics, and patient care. Using technologies such as reverse osmosis, UV, and electrodeionisation, our products deliver consistent water quality to meet Type I, II, and III specifications—supporting a wide range of critical processes with reliable, on-demand purity.
Type I Water
Required for molecular biology, HPLC, and analytical applications. FILTEC’s systems deliver ultrapure water with resistivity ≥18 MΩ·cm and TOC ≤10 ppb. Typically used at the point of use with UV, deionisation, and final filtration to prevent interference in high-sensitivity laboratory procedures.
Type II Water
Ideal for general laboratory tasks, media preparation, and clinical diagnostics. Produced through reverse osmosis followed by ion exchange or UV, this water meets resistivity standards ≥1 MΩ·cm and is often used to feed Type I systems or for non-critical experiments.
Type III Water
Suitable for feed water to glassware washers, autoclaves, or pre-treatment stages. Produced by basic reverse osmosis or filtration, Type III water removes the majority of dissolved solids and chlorine, supporting cleaning and utility functions in both medical and lab settings.
Safe Drinking Water Supply
Hospitals must guarantee potable water during outages or contamination events. FILTEC integrates filtration, UV, and chlorination to meet New Zealand and Australian standards—securing hygienic drinking water for wards, cafeterias, and visitor areas within a unified healthcare water treatment framework.
