Which water quality should I use for my Lexa Plus sterilizer?
The water quality for sterilizers is internationally specified by standards and directives.

Consequently, only water with conductivity of less than 10 µS/cm in North America and 15 µS/cm for the rest of the world should be used for your W&H sterilizer. The Multidem system and OSMO are especially designed to prepare suitable water (see chapter “Water quality” in the Instructions for Use). more
