What is a water distiller ? A water distiller is a system to obtain very pure water from potable water
normally provided by the aqueduct services in urban centres. Distilled water is
characterized by a lack of solids in suspension.
What is the use of distilled water ? It is used in multiple applications health centres, especially in laboratory units,
in cleaning and sterilization.
Is all distilled water No, to obtain very pure substances, consecutive distillation cycles are
of the same quality ? performed with the aim of progressively eliminating other substances present
in the mix.
The more specialized the procedures are in the laboratory, the greater will be
the level of purity required. For example: the preparation of reagents or
biological material requires water of the highest quality.
3. Control valve. Mechanical or electromechanical device which allows the flow of water towards the vapour
generator tank to be regulated.
6. Immersion resistors. Devices generating heat when an electrical current circulates through them. These are
isolated by a ceramic cap and protected from the external environment by a metal shield.
9. Filter. Distillers have activated carbon filters located at the exit of the condenser or collector. These eliminate flavours or
particles which may be present in the vapour being condensed.
10. Distilled water container. Device in which the fluid completing the distillation process is collected. Distilled water
must be stored in special plastic containers to avoid ionic contamination. Polyethylene, polypropylene or
polytetrafluoroethylene containers are generally used.
