The Zero™️ System
Ionic Systems Reach & Wash® System called The Zero™️ represents a leap forward in pure-water cleaning. It contains several unique technologies and is the most advanced system available. It represents the Ultimate in pure water window cleaning systems and sets the new GOLD STANDARD for purification at Parts Per Billion (PPB).
Why has the purification standard changed?
In 1997 Ionic Systems introduced The Reach & Wash® System and at that time they told the World of Window Cleaning that water of zero parts per million (0ppm) was the standard required for spot free results; however, water fed poles are not magic wands and both cleaners and customers alike sometimes experience windows left with less than perfect results.
Fast forward to today and now Ionic’s new ‘Zero’ produces ultra pure water at zero parts per billion (0ppb) and sets a new GOLD STANDARD for pure water cleaning.
Water at 0ppb is one thousand times purer than water at 0ppm and because pure water cleans by dissolving dirt ions, it follows that water at 0ppb is capable of dissolving 1,000 times more dirt than water of 0ppm.
Other systems remove only dissolved solids from the water supply; uniquely the Zero removes both dissolved solids and all organics as well as bacteria from the water supply. The result is not only water that is 1,000 times purer but also ultra pure water free from micro-organisms such as legionella bacteria and the organic matter that bacteria feeds upon. A significant benefit is that bio-film cannot form upon the surface of filter media or the RO membrane that means that filters maintain day one performance which in turn means lower running costs.
Features & Benefits
The Zero™️ System has an impressive 8 stages of water treatment and automated tech including:
- PFS™️ Periodic Flush System - On start up this feature automatically flushes the Reverse Osmosis Membrane for a period of 2 minutes. Thereafter the RO flushes for 2 minutes every hour during the filling process.
-
ROMS™️ Reverse Osmosis Maintenance System - At the end of each tank fill, pure water is diverted to the RO membrane housing. Leaving the RO membrane bathing in pure water between fills ensures that dissolved solids (found in tap water) do not foul the membrane. Further, dissolved solids that are not removed from the membrane surface during Periodic Auto Flush cycles are absorbed by the pure water during the "rest period" to be flushed away during the first flush on startup.
-
PDI™️ - Perpetual De-ionization - This feature considerably extends DI resin contact time. Ultra purification is achieved by repeated exposure of purified water to the final DI polishing stage.Cleaning with the 18meg-ohm (0PPB) water is a breeze, powering through years of baked on dirt and the dulling effects of pollution on glass. Pure water production of up to 5 liters or 1.6 gallons per minute at maximum operating pressure of 80 psi. This holds true for the 'S' version as well.
