Silicate Monitoring for Safe Water Treatment in Medical Facilities
Silicates (SiO₂) are mineral components found dissolved in water. When present in high concentrations, they can cause deposits in pipelines, as well as on medical instruments and equipment. These deposits not only affect the functionality of devices but can also compromise the sterility of medical instruments, jeopardizing patient safety. Therefore, continuous monitoring of silicate levels is a critical aspect of water treatment in hospitals and medical centers.
Testomat 808 Silicate – Accurate Limit Monitoring
The Testomat 808 Silicate enables continuous limit monitoring of silicate levels, ensuring safe water treatment. The device ensures that the prescribed silicate limits are consistently met, maintaining the efficiency of water systems as well as the functionality and sterility of medical equipment. Furthermore, compliance with the DGSV limits (German Society for Sterile Supply) for water quality is ensured, meeting the highest hygiene and safety standards.
Compliance with DGSV Limits
The German Society for Sterile Supply (DGSV) sets strict limits for water quality in medical facilities to ensure the safety and sterility of instruments and devices. Regular monitoring and adherence to these limits are crucial to minimize the risk of contamination and deposits in water systems. Devices like the Testomat 808 Silicate help ensure these limits are met by continuously monitoring silicate levels and ensuring that the established standards for safe and hygienic water treatment are met. Compliance with DGSV limits is essential to maintain the highest level of patient safety and hygiene standards in clinical practice.

Performance/execution:
230 V/50-60 HZ
The Testomat® 808 SiO₂ from Heyl is a device developed for measuring and monitoring deionized water in medical facilities.
The central importance of silicate monitoring
Silicate measurement using the Testomat® 808 SiO₂ is an essential aspect of compliance with a defined limit value. Precise silicate monitoring is particularly important in process water treatment in clinics in order to prevent deposits on equipment and medical devices (MD) and to ensure the effectiveness of water treatment systems. The limit value can be set in resolution steps of 0.1 mg/l free in the working range of 0.3–1.2 mg/l. Continuous monitoring of the silicate content and compliance with the limit values allows problems to be detected at an early stage and appropriate measures to be taken to protect the equipment and treated medical devices.
The Testomat® 808 SiO₂ scores with:
Low reagent consumption (up to 750 analyses with one reagent set),
Ease of maintenance,
Very good integration into PLC/PLC through transmission of measured values and error messages using fixed mA values
Performance profile:
The S7 function switch can be used to set 10 limit values from 0.3 to 1.2 ppm SIO2
Analysis triggering:
o Automatic interval operation (with S8, the interval pause can be set from 0 to 480 minutes)
o External control (start/stop input)
o Manual analysis trigger (manual start)
Long operating times thanks to 500 ml indicator supply
RS232 interface for optional firmware updates and data output to a computer
Weekend operation monitoring through 72 hours of unattended operation (BOB)
Output of status and error messages via a current interface
It is an efficient and practical solution with an excellent price-performance ratio, especially for critical processes such as in the semiconductor industry and deionized water treatment in clinics, hospitals, and outpatient centers.
