Meeting/Event Information

Join us for an informative ASPE technical session featuring Andrew Paulsen, National Sales Manager with Water Control Corporation Inc., as he presents on commercial water treatment systems and critical design considerations for healthcare and commercial applications.

This class will focus on High-Purity Water for Healthcare, including Clinical Laboratory Reagent Water (CLRW) and Medical Device Reprocessing Water systems. Attendees will gain valuable insight into the importance of water purity standards, system design, production methods, and application requirements for healthcare facilities and laboratory environments.

Topics covered will include:

• Measuring water purity

• Commercial high-purity water applications and industry standards, including:

  • AAMI ST-108 Water for Medical Device Reprocessing (sterilizers/autoclaves – 0.1 megohm)

  • CLSI Clinical Laboratory Reagent Water (CLRW – 10 megohm)

• High-purity water production methods:

  • Membrane filtration (RO)

  • Deionization (DI)

  • Electrodeionization (EDI)

• Reverse Osmosis (RO) system components, including pre-treatment, production, polishing, storage, and delivery

• Additional components required to produce and maintain 10 megohm CLRW systems

• Pure water piping system design options, including sizing and material selection

• Sizing and selecting high-purity water systems for medical applications

• Advantages of packaged high-purity water systems

This session is ideal for engineers, designers, contractors, healthcare facility professionals, and anyone involved in plumbing and mechanical system design. Attendees will leave with practical knowledge and a better understanding of how proper high-purity water system design can improve reliability, efficiency, and long-term system performance in critical healthcare environments.

This course is approved for CEU credit, making it a great opportunity to expand your technical knowledge while earning continuing education hours.

We look forward to you joining us for this event and encourage you to invite a guest to learn more about this important and growing area of commercial and healthcare design.
