Ultrapure water for genomics and genetics research
Ensuring reliability and reproducibility through contaminant free ultrapure water, ideal for genomic/genetic applications.
Low RNase, DNase ultrapure water ideal for sensitive genetic applications.
Built-in or bolt on POU filtration removes bacteria and endotoxins.
Benefit from Cutting-edge Purification Technologies including reverse osmosis, activated carbon filtration, UV photo-oxidation and final filtration.
Simple to operate and maintain with easy-to-change consumables, periodic recirculation and a simple, pre-programmed sanitisation process.
Designed for labs where space is premium. Choose from a range of installations to meet your requirements. PURELAB water purification systems can sit on and under a bench, or mount on a wall.
When undertaking genomics and genetics research it is important to maintain rigorous standards at every stage of the research process. This includes the use of high-quality reagents, such as ultrapure water, to ensure the reliability and integrity of your research outcomes.
PURELAB water purification systems are the ideal solution, providing unmatched value, proven reliability, and consistent reproducibility. Delivering up to three types of laboratory water, PURELAB systems will support every application in your R&D lab.

Can PURELAB water purification systems be wall mounted?
ELGA offer a range of wall mounting kits to suit each PURELAB product.
Can PURELAB water purification systems be validated to comply with GxP regulations?
PURELAB systems can be validated (excluding the PURELAB Quest).
Do the PURELAB water purification systems include an RNAses & DNAses specification?
Yes, an RNases & DNases specifcation is offered without any point of use filter - documentation on how we justify this is available.
What critical alarms would protect my research?
Users have the option to set alarms for purification techonolgies including, UV lamp (12 months), vent filter (12 months) & RO Membrane (24 months).
What is the size of the storage reservoir in a PURELAB water purification system, and do I need one?
PURELAB reservoir sizes are 15l, 30l, 60l and 100l and are only required for the PURELAB Chorus range. The PURELAB Quest and flex 3/4 and 5/6 have an integrated 7l tank.
How do PURELAB water purification systems protect my lab water purity?
PURELAB water purification systems uses an advanced method of recirculating water (excluding Chorus 2 and 3), which provides ongoing purification through UV and DI to maintain optimal water quality.
