Tuttnauer DS1000 Steam Distiller – 1 Gallon Water Distiller
The Tuttnauer DS1000 Steam Distiller is a countertop water purification system that produces up to 1 gallon of steam-distilled water in approximately 4 hours. Designed for simple operation, the DS1000 provides healthcare facilities with a convenient on-site source of distilled water for compatible autoclaves, sterilizers and other appropriate applications.
Simply fill the stainless-steel boiler with tap water and start the distillation cycle. The DS1000 heats the water, converts it to steam and condenses the steam back into purified water while leaving many dissolved solids and contaminants behind.
The system includes a 1-gallon BPA-free carafe and automatically shuts off after each 1-gallon cycle.

How Does the Tuttnauer DS1000 Work?
The DS1000 purifies water through steam distillation.
Tap water is placed inside the stainless-steel boiler and heated to the boiling point. As the water converts to steam, many dissolved solids and contaminants remain behind in the boiling chamber.
The steam then travels through the stainless-steel condenser, where it cools and returns to liquid form.
Before entering the collection carafe, the distilled water passes through a final coconut-shell carbon polishing filter.
The result is purified distilled water collected in the included BPA-free carafe.
Why Use Distilled Water With an Autoclave?
Water quality is an important part of operating and maintaining many steam sterilizers.
Minerals present in ordinary tap water can contribute to deposits and scale inside sterilization equipment. Using the water specified by your autoclave manufacturer can help minimize mineral accumulation and support proper equipment maintenance.
Several Tuttnauer tabletop autoclaves specify distilled or appropriately treated water for operation.
For facilities that regularly use distilled water, the Tuttnauer DS1000 provides an on-site alternative to purchasing and storing individual containers of distilled water.
Always follow the water-quality requirements specified in the operating instructions for your particular sterilizer.

Tuttnauer DS1000 Replacement Filters
The DS1000 uses a coconut-shell carbon filter as the final polishing stage before distilled water enters the collection carafe.
Replacement carbon filters are available separately to help maintain the distiller according to the manufacturer's recommended maintenance procedures.
Add replacement filters when ordering your DS1000 or purchase additional filters for ongoing use.
Cleaning & Maintaining the Tuttnauer DS1000
Minerals and other materials removed from the incoming water remain inside the boiler during distillation. As a result, routine cleaning is an important part of maintaining a steam distiller.
Follow Tuttnauer's current use and care instructions for cleaning the boiler and replacing the carbon filter.
Tuttnauer also offers Kleenwise Distiller Cleaner & Descaler for cleaning mineral deposits from the distiller boiling tank.
