This 85W UV unit with full WRAS approval is ideal for commercial and light industrial applications. They're great for multi-residency water treatment plants, building services and process water applications where the water quality is already pretty good, but there's either an existing bacteriological issue, or there's a high risk that needs safeguarding against.
As a quick summary, the difference between the systems are as follow:
Altima – Basic system. Essentially comes with an LED to show it’s turned on.
Proxima – Upgraded system. Comes with display, alarms and countdown timer.
Maxima – Fully loaded. Comes with extra UV sensor and temperature sensor functionality.
The thing to remember in all this is that the system will function exactly the same way regardless of the system you have. The controller will turn the UV lamp on and monitor it. The functionality of the Proxima and Maxima systems are for ease of use and monitoring purposes. If in doubt, go for the Proxima system, they’re the most popular.
As you can see from the table, they will treat up to 225l/min or 13.0m³/hour and are fine to be left turned on for long periods (during periods of shutdown for example) but care will be needed when flow resumes, the heated water in the reactor will be quite hot.
This system comes with everything you need to fit and run it for the whole first year and is WRAS approved. The next thing you'll need to buy for the system is the lamp replacement that it'll need after the first year of operation.

Understanding EC and TDS Measurements
The Milwaukee EC59 PRO measures electrical conductivity (EC) and converts this measurement into an estimated total dissolved solids (TDS) value.
Although EC and TDS are closely related, they are not exactly the same measurement.
Electrical Conductivity (EC)
EC measures the ability of water to conduct electricity, which is influenced by the concentration of dissolved ions.
Readings are displayed in microsiemens per centimetre (µS/cm).
Conductivity monitoring is particularly useful in aquaculture, hydroponics and water treatment applications.
Total Dissolved Solids (TDS)
TDS is an estimate of the concentration of dissolved substances in water, normally displayed in parts per million (ppm).
The EC59 PRO calculates TDS from its conductivity measurement using a selectable conversion factor.
Different conversion factors can produce different TDS readings from the same EC measurement. The appropriate scale should therefore be selected according to your application and testing requirements.
Automatic Temperature Compensation (ATC)
Water conductivity changes with temperature, which can affect measurement results.
The Milwaukee EC59 PRO incorporates automatic temperature compensation to adjust conductivity measurements according to the temperature of the sample.
The temperature is displayed separately on the secondary LCD, allowing you to monitor both parameters during testing.
The temperature compensation coefficient can also be adjusted to suit different measurement requirements.
Replaceable Milwaukee Mi59P Probe
One of the main advantages of the Milwaukee EC59 PRO is its replaceable Mi59P conductivity probe.
Over time, measurement probes can become contaminated or deteriorate through regular use. The replaceable probe design allows you to change the sensing component without replacing the entire instrument.
Benefits include:
Extends the useful working life of the meter.
Allows replacement of a worn or damaged probe.
Reduces the need to purchase a completely new instrument.
Provides a practical solution for regular water quality monitoring.
The replacement probe is the Milwaukee Mi59P, compatible with the EC59 and EC60 testers.

1413 µS/cm Conductivity Calibration Solution.
The instrument automatically recognises the calibration point and completes the calibration process.
Understanding EC and TDS Conversion
Although EC and TDS are closely related, they are different measurements.
EC measures electrical conductivity, while TDS estimates the concentration of dissolved substances in water.
The MW803 MAX converts EC measurements into estimated TDS values using an adjustable conversion factor between 0.45 and 1.00.
Different conversion factors can produce different TDS readings from the same EC measurement.
This is particularly important in hydroponics and aquaculture, where different measurement scales may be used.
For consistent monitoring, always use the same conversion factor when comparing TDS readings over time.
Probe Maintenance & Care
Proper maintenance is essential for maintaining accurate measurements and extending the life of the MI60P combination probe.
We recommend:
Store the pH electrode using Milwaukee MA9015 electrode storage solution.
Never store the pH electrode in distilled or deionised water.
Clean the probe regularly using suitable Milwaukee MA9016 cleaning solution.
Rinse the probe with fresh water after every measurement.
Avoid allowing nutrient solutions or mineral deposits to accumulate on the sensing surfaces.
Calibrate after cleaning and whenever measurement performance needs checking.

Why Measure Electrical Conductivity?
Electrical conductivity indicates how readily water conducts an electrical current, which is influenced by the concentration of dissolved ions.
Regular EC measurements can help aquarium keepers and aquatic professionals monitor changes in water composition, compare water sources and check consistency during water preparation or treatment.
For aquaculture and aquarium applications, conductivity readings can be useful as part of a wider water-quality monitoring routine. EC should be considered alongside other relevant parameters, such as pH, temperature, dissolved oxygen and ammonia.
Automatic Temperature Compensation
Water conductivity changes with temperature. The CD601 features automatic temperature compensation from 5 to 50°C, helping to make readings more consistent when sample temperatures vary.
Simple Calibration
The CD601 can be recalibrated at a single point using the recommended Milwaukee M10031B 1413 µS/cm conductivity calibration solution.
Calibration is performed manually using the adjustment trimmer and a small screwdriver. Regular calibration helps maintain confidence in measurements, particularly where the tester is used frequently.
EC and TDS: Understanding the Difference
The CD601 measures electrical conductivity (EC) in µS/cm. It does not directly measure total dissolved solids (TDS) in ppm.
EC readings can be used to estimate TDS, but the conversion depends on the factor or scale being applied. Different conversion factors can produce different ppm values from the same conductivity reading. For accurate water analysis, it is important to understand which measurement your application requires.
If you need a dedicated TDS tester with a direct ppm reading, consider the Milwaukee CD600 instead.
Care and Maintenance
To help maintain reliable performance:
Rinse the sensing area with clean water after each use.
Avoid allowing nutrient deposits or other residue to build up on the sensor.
Keep the protective cap in place when the tester is not being used.
Calibrate periodically, and whenever readings become questionable.
Use fresh calibration solution for best results.
