Finn-Aqua Multiple Effect Water Stills

The new T-Series Multiple-Effect Water Still takes the unique Finn-Aqua falling-film evaporation technology yet one step further with a new patented column construction and and enhanced process and design to deliver even better performance, energy efficiency and dependability.

The Finn-Aqua Multiple-Effect Water Still doesn't just produce distillate that meets US, European and Japan Pharmacopoeias for WFI. It is also equipped with key new features to ensure suitability to various customer needs and operational environments. New to the process is the blow-down removal from each column feature, enhancing the quality of the WFI produced, as well as the new condenser design. Distillation against backpressure in WFI tanks, recirculation of non-evaporated feed water, continuous blow-down measurement are some of the other new and unique process features only available in the Finn-Aqua T-Series design.

The core of the Finn-Aqua Multiple-Effect Water Still is its separator column - a new compact design falling film evaporator (patent pending) that removes impurities at high velocities. For effective gas removal the first column has an integral gas separator while the consecutive columns has gas outlet ports. The compact design of the column has also made it possible to reduce the overall height of the equipment.

A distinct advantage of the Finn-Aqua T-Series Multiple-Effect Water Still is the advanced control systems. The choices are the latest PLC's from Siemens and Allen-Bradley with streamlined control functions and improved interfacing with other process systems.

The Finn-Aqua T-Series Multiple-Effect Water Still also meets or exceeds all major design, manufacturing and performance compliance requirements. These include standards such as US, European and Japan pharmacopoeia for WFI, ISO 9001:2000, EN-729-2, GAMP, U.S. cGMP and FDA requirements, relevant EU directives and many more.

The recently inaugurated unique FAT center, at the factory in Tuusula, Finland, brings together the latest technologies and our experienced team of test engineers to give all the Finn-Aqua Water Stills a full evaluation before shipment -ensuring that its design, manufacture and operation are 100% as specified. Test bays fully simulate the customers' specific plant conditions and all test results are precisely documented. This ensures a smoother and faster on-site qualification - again, saving you both time and money.
