Mobile gas detectors
Would you like to use mobile gas detectors to detect specific sources of danger in an industrial environment? HeylNeomeris offers you the right sensor for your area of application.
Mobile gas detectors are used in companies to measure potentially hazardous gas concentrations in the air and detect them at an early stage. They are used to protect employees, the environment and to comply with safety standards.
The detectors are portable devices that can be carried by employees as required. They are battery-operated and have sensors that can detect different types of gases such as ozone, methane, hydrogen, etc.
Companies throughout Germany use mobile gas detectors in various areas, depending on the specific sources of danger. Mobile gas detectors are used, for example, in industrial plants. In factories and production facilities, the use of mobile gas detectors enables the detection of leaks or unusual gas concentrations in pipes, tanks or other systems.
The detectors can trigger audible and visual alarms if a dangerous gas concentration is detected. This allows employees to react quickly and take appropriate action, such as evacuating the area or shutting down equipment.
You can find a selection of our products (sensors and measuring devices) in our online shop under Gas measuring devices - Heyl Neomeris Shop

Ozone generators
HeylNeomeris as your supplier for ozone generators - equipment technology for the disinfection of water and air as well as for the purification of process water in industry
Ozone generators are used to produce ozone and are extremely powerful and efficient. They are an important component of water treatment and in industry. Ozone generators are used in industrial water treatment, process water treatment and, in particular, in the pharmaceutical industry, where they are used to kill germs and disinfect water and air. Ozone generators therefore enable the disinfection of drinking water and swimming pool water, for example. The advantage of using ozone is its environmental friendliness, the short dwell time in the water and its neutral flavour.
You can find a selection of ozone generators in the HeylNeomeris product portfolio at Ozone and UV technology - Heyl Neomeris Shop .
If you have any questions, you can contact us by phone, e-mail or via our contact form. We look forward to your enquiry.
Residual ozone destroyer
Residual ozone destructors from HeylNeomeris for the reduction of excess ozone
Residual ozone destructors are devices that are used in water treatment to break down excess ozone. Ozone is a reactive gas that can be produced in the atmosphere as well as by some devices such as ozone generators. Ozone destructors destroy the ozone produced before it can be released into the environment.
They work by catalytic decomposition of ozone using special catalysts. Our system consists of a reactor housing, flow internals and droplet separators, Carulite 200 catalyst granulate and electrical trace heating. HeylNeomeris is a supplier of residual ozone neutralisers and offers you a broad product portfolio of catalytic residual ozone neutralisers.

UV systems
HeylNeomeris as an expert and supplier of UV systems
UV systems are used in water treatment to kill microorganisms such as bacteria, viruses, yeasts and parasites.The systems work by irradiating the water with ultraviolet light, which destroys the organisms' DNA and RNA and thus prevents them from reproducing. UV disinfection is an effective method of water treatment as it requires no chemical additives and produces no harmful by-products.
UV systems are ideal for monitoring the water quality of water treatment, water blending and drinking water systems.They are easy to install and maintain.However, a precise technical design of the UV system is required to ensure that the UV disinfection does not fail to be effective and that the number of microorganisms is reduced to the desired minimum.
The quality and safety of drinking and process water can be guaranteed with a UV system.You can find a selection of our range of UV systems at UV systems - Heyl Neomeris Shop. In the product area, you will find products for different areas of application. If you have any questions or need advice, please contact us by phone or e-mail.
Calibration solutions
Calibration solutions are used to calibrate measuring instruments to a known reference to ensure that they provide accurate measurements.
HeylNeomeris offers a broad product portfolio of calibration solutions that are used in a wide range of applications, such as analytical chemistry, biochemistry, medicine, environmental analysis and the food industry.
There are various calibration methods for calibrating measuring devices.
A one-point calibration is a calibration method in which a measuring device is calibrated to a known reference by adjusting it to a solution with a known value. A two-point calibration is a calibration method in which a measuring device is calibrated to two known references by adapting it to solutions with two known values.
In one-point calibration, the meter is calibrated to a single point, while in two-point calibration, the meter is calibrated to two points. One-point calibration is easier and faster than two-point calibration, but two-point calibration is more accurate and reliable.
We offer a wide range of calibration solutions in different bottle sizes and disposable bags.

Buffer solutions
Buffer solutions are solutions that keep the pH value stable when acids or bases are added. Buffer solutions are used, for example, in biochemistry, analytical chemistry or formulation.
The HeylNeomeris product portfolio offers a wide range of buffer solutions.
Examples include redox buffer solutions, which are used to keep the redox potential of a sample constant. A redox buffer consists of a redox pair consisting of an oxidation and a reduction component, which are mixed in a specific concentration to generate a defined redox potential. Buffer solutions therefore consist of a conjugate acid-base pair and can keep the pH value of a solution relatively stable. Redox buffer solutions are often used in biochemistry. They ensure that reactions take place at a constant pH value.
Another example of buffer solutions from our HeylNeomeris range are the pH buffer solutions. The pH value is an important parameter when analysing water. It indicates whether a solution is acidic, neutral or alkaline. In pure water or in neutral solutions, the pH value is 7. A pH value below 7 indicates an acidic solution, while a pH value above 7 indicates an alkaline solution. In water analysis, the pH value is measured to determine the quality of the water. The pH value is an important parameter in many technical systems, especially in water treatment. The pH value influences the chemical reactions that take place in the systems and can therefore affect the efficiency of the systems. For example, a pH value that is too low can lead to malfunctions in wastewater treatment plants, as it inhibits the growth of microorganisms that are responsible for the decomposition of organic substances. A pH value that is too high can lead to deposits and corrosion in pipework and other system components. In heating systems, a pH value that is too low can lead to corrosion and damage to the systems. In agriculture, a soil pH value that is too low can impair the growth of plants.
Choose the buffer solutions for your area of application from our comprehensive range, which are available in different bottle sizes or disposable bags.
Stationary gas detectors
HeylNeomeris as your supplier for stationary gas detectors - for measuring gas concentrations and for continuous ozone measurement
Stationary gas detectors are used in companies to ensure the safety of employees and systems. They measure the concentration of gases such as toxic gases, oxygen deficiency, flammable gases and vapours that cannot be detected by the human senses. The detectors alert the worker at an early stage and increase occupational safety.

Tradition and future for innovative Water treatment plants Erfurt
Since December 2005, customers previously supplied with hard groundwater have been receiving mixed water, with a few exceptions due to technological reasons. The Erfurt mixed water is a balanced mix. It consists of Erfurt groundwater, which is particularly rich in minerals and trace elements, and low-hardness reservoir water from the Thuringian Forest. The two waters are combined in elevated tanks that have been specially converted into mixing tanks. Mixed in a controlled manner, they produce the medium-soft Erfurt mixed water, which supplies around 172,000 people around the clock.
ThüWa ThüringenWasser GmbH supplies almost 75,000 inhabitants of its supply area with pure long-distance water. This soft surface water comes from the Ohratal Reservoir near Luisenthal. The water collected in the dam is treated in a waterworks to make it suitable for human consumption. The exact treatment steps may include filtration, disinfection and, if necessary, the addition of chemicals to purify the water and remove impurities.
Drinking water is the best controlled foodstuff in Germany. GWA Gesellschaft für Wasser- und Abwasserservice mbH, a company of the ThüWa Group, monitors the perfect quality of Erfurt’s drinking water through its branch, the Institute for Water and Environmental Analysis. It is also permanently monitored by the responsible health authorities.
For consumers, this guarantees safe consumption and safety. Water consumption data is recorded and used by Stadtwerke Erfurt for billing customers. Customers receive corresponding water bills based on their individual consumption.

From the beginnings until today: The professional development of drinking water production in Erfurt
From the beginnings until today: The professional development of drinking water extraction in Erfurt
The professional extraction of drinking water in Erfurt is based on a balanced mixture of Erfurt groundwater, dam water from Luisenthal and long-distance water from the Ohratal dam. ThüWa ThüringenWasser GmbH, acting on behalf of Stadtwerke Erfurt, ensures that the drinking water is of good quality and medium water hardness.
The water sources for drinking water in Erfurt are diverse. The groundwater comes from the Thuringian Basin, which is known for its intensive agricultural use. The dams in the region, especially the Ohratalsperre in Luisenthal, serve as reservoirs for the dam water. This is used together with groundwater to ensure a sufficient water supply for the more than 243,000 inhabitants of the city.
The drinking water is extracted through targeted well drilling and the use of modern water treatment technology. Groundwater and reservoir water are first extracted and purified in treatment plants. In these plants, suspended solids, bacteria and other impurities are removed to ensure high water quality.
An important aspect of the extraction of drinking water is the control and monitoring of water quality. Regular analyses and tests are carried out to ensure that drinking water meets strict legal requirements and quality standards. This involves checking various parameters such as pH, hardness, mineral content and microbiological contamination.
The history of drinking water supply in Erfurt dates back to 1136, when the city’s first waterworks was established. Under the direction of Abbot Wernher I, a lead water pipeline was built from the spring waterworks at Peterborn to the Benedictine monastery on Erfurt’s Petersberg. This pipeline overcame a difference in altitude of 30 meters and, in effect, carried the water up the mountain.
Over the centuries, various developments and changes were made to Erfurt’s water supply. In 1375, the lead pipe was removed due to a long siege of the city. It was later replaced by a wooden pipeline, which proved highly durable. In the 15th century, the spring catchment at Peterborn was expanded to meet the increasing water needs of the monastery.
In 1834, the wooden pipes were finally replaced by durable cast iron, which increased the efficiency of the water supply. With the lifting of Erfurt’s fortress status in 1873 and construction outside the city walls, a piped water supply became necessary. However, the Peterborn waterworks could no longer meet the increasing demand, and new water sources were tapped.
Since 1876, drinking water for Erfurt has been obtained from the waterworks in Wechmar. In the following years, additional waterworks, such as the Dreienbrunnen waterworks, were built to supply the growing city with sufficient water. Nowadays, part of the drinking water comes from the Möbisburg waterworks and is mixed with dam water from Luisenthal to ensure optimum water quality.
The drinking water in Erfurt is of medium hardness, with the mineral content depending on the regional geology and the flow rate of the water. Minerals such as calcium and magnesium, which are important for the body, are naturally absorbed by the water from the ground. Drinking water in Erfurt has an average mineral content that benefits the body.
Compared to bottled mineral water, the tap water in Erfurt offers equivalent quality. Stiftung Warentest already confirmed in 2016 that tap water is healthy, inexpensive and environmentally friendly. The EU has also repealed a law that said mineral water must be particularly rich in minerals. Therefore, drinking water in Erfurt can in many cases even have a higher mineral content than bottled mineral water.
