KOiftVckcxiMje LABORATORY SIZE CARTRIDGE DE-IONIZER GIVES tmrtvto£'fr&L WATER
The ILLCO-WAY Throw-Away Cartridge De-Ionizer consists of a clear plastic column containing mixed-bed ionXchange resins. The mixed-bed ionXchange process will remove all dissolved solids (including, in our Research Model, silica and CO2) so that the effluent is pure enough for the finest analytical purposes. The Cartridge is used also to reduce the interfering ions often found in distilled water. The column is clamped in a bracket, as shown, with tubing and valves to connect to any tap or other water supply. ILLCO-WAY Resins used contain a color indicator which changes from purple to yellow as the resins become exhausted, showing when a fresh Cartridge is needed. RESEARCH MODEL Removes all ionizable solids including silica and CO2. Average in effluent less than 0-5 ppm. total solids. Capacity, 450 grains as CaCOs. Flow Rate, 5 gph. max. Price, $12.50 Bracket, extra, 87.50
UNIVERSAL MODEL Removes all ionizable solids, except silica and C02.Suitableforgeneral pure water needs. Capacity, 000 grains as CaCOs. Flow Rate, 5 gph max. Price, $9.75 Bracket, extra, $7.50

his education a t the University of Vienna ( P h . D . '27) and was guest lecturer at the New York University from 1950 to 1952. He has ten publications and two patents to his credit and is a member of the ACS, AAAS, and the New York Academy of Sciences. James A. Rogers, Jr., is presently Director of Instrumental Laboratories at Fritzsche Brothers, Inc. He received his undergraduate degree at St. John's University, Brooklyn, and F o r d h a m University. After serving three years in the U. S. N a v y , he joined Fritzsche Brothers in 1946 in the Production Research Laboratory in the Clifton Factory. After receiving his M.S. from Stevens Institute of Technology in Hoboken, N . J., he was placed in charge of the instrumental laboratory when it was set u p in 1952. His field of interest involves identification and structural determinations of essential oil components and related products by absorption, spectrophotometric, and gas chromatographic methods. H e is a member of ACS, the Society for Applied Spectroscopy, Coblentz Society, and the Instrumental Methods Group of the Essential Oil Association.
