LAUDA Puridest PD 12 R single-column distillation unit with 24-litre reservoir, L003016

High-performance distillation with integrated storage

The LAUDA Puridest PD 12 R is a professional single-column distillation unit designed specifically to meet the high demand for ultrapure water in the laboratory. With an impressive distillation capacity of 12 litres per hour and an integrated 24-litre storage tank, it ensures that you always have sufficient distillate available. It is ideal for bacteriological and medical applications, for preparing cell and tissue cultures, and for the production of reagents.

GFL Technology – Proven quality redefined

Building on GFL’s (now part of LAUDA) decades of experience, this unit sets new standards in durability and purity. The distillate is free from bacteria and pyrogens, low in gases and has an extremely low conductivity of approx. 2.3 µS/cm (at 25 °C). The entire water circuit – from the evaporator to the storage tank – is made of high-quality stainless steel, which prevents corrosion and guarantees the highest water quality.

Convenience and safety

The Puridest PD 12 R operates fully automatically: when the storage tank is full, distillation switches off and restarts automatically as soon as distillate is drawn off. An electronic level control system and an integrated low-water protection feature ensure maximum operational reliability. Furthermore, the unit detects contamination in the evaporator and signals via an LED when cleaning is required.
