Product Description
Description:
-
Distilled water is water that has been purified via distillation — boiled into vapor, then condensed back into liquid, leaving behind most dissolved solids, minerals, ions, and many contaminants.
-
In practice, high-grade distilled water typically has very low total dissolved solids (TDS) (often < 1 ppm) and very low electrical conductivity.
-
A 6-litre container volume is moderately large — useful for filling dental unit reservoirs, autoclaves, humidifiers, laboratory equipment, etc. (Often sold in jugs, drums, or refill containers.)
-
The water is typically sterile or near-sterile (or at least very low in microbial content), assuming proper packaging and storage.
-
Because distillation removes buffers and ions, distilled water is slightly acidic (pH ~5.5–6) because of dissolved carbon dioxide forming carbonic acid.
Features:
When evaluating a 6-L distilled water product, some key features and specifications to look for include
| Feature | Importance / Typical Specification |
| Purity / TDS (Total Dissolved Solids) | Should be extremely low (e.g. < 1 ppm or <10 ppm) — ensures minimal residue or scaling. |
| Microbial Quality | Low bacterial count, sterile or nearly sterile — for equipment or clinical use this reduces contamination risk. |
| pH / Buffering | Slightly acidic by nature; pH stability matters for compatibility with equipment and chemicals. |
| Container Material & Integrity | Should be in clean, inert, non-leaching container (e.g. high-density polyethylene, polypropylene) and sealed to avoid contamination. |
| Volume / Packaging | 6 L is a practical size — easy to pour, manageable weight, useful for repeated refilling. |
| Labeling / / Certification | Label should mention “distilled”, batch number, date of distillation, expiration or “best before”, purity specs, manufacturer. |
| Shelf Stability / & Storage | Should resist microbial growth over storage period; packaging should block light or contamination. |
| Compatibility with Equipment | Should be free from minerals or salts that can damage dental units, autoclaves, steam lines, humidifiers, etc. |
| Low Residue / Non-scaling | Because minerals are removed, usage leads to minimal scaling or deposits inside tubing, boilers, steam generators. |
Highlight / Selling Points
Below are the key selling advantages and highlight points for a 6-litre distilled water product — especially in dental, clinical, and lab environments:
-
Minimized Mineral Deposits / Scale
Because the water is virtually free of dissolved minerals (calcium, magnesium, salts), it will reduce scale buildup inside handpieces, autoclaves, tubing, boilers, and steam systems. This extends equipment life and reduces maintenance needs. -
Reduced Risk of Contamination / Biofilm
Using distilled water helps prevent introduction of microbial contaminants or minerals that promote biofilm growth in waterlines. -
Equipment Compatibility / Longevity
Dental handpieces, autoclaves, sterilizers, ultrasonic baths, and other precision devices perform better and last longer when fed with clean, low-impurity water. -
In autoclaves and steam sterilizers, distilled water produces purer steam, less residue, and more reliable sterilization performance.
-
Versatility across Applications
Suitable for dental units, lab fume hoods, chemical preparation, rinsing, humidifiers, and more. -
Consistent Quality / Predictability
Because the water has known, stable purity parameters, it’s easier to control processes (chemical reactions, instrument maintenance) without variable impurities interfering. -
Convenient Mid-Size Volume
A 6-L container strikes a balance: large enough for multiple uses; small enough to handle easily, store, and refill. -
Cost Efficiency
Buying higher volume distilled water often yields better cost per litre compared to small bottles. -
Safe for Clinical Use (if properly packaged / sterile)
When sealed and properly handled, it’s safe for contact with instruments or devices that may come near patients.
