We have a pure water system comprising:
1) Pretreatment by a 0.2 micron filter plus an Econo-pure
RO system. This feeds a Polypropilene tank.
2) The water is continuosly circulated through this tank,
a Teflon+PP pump, ion-exchange mixed resin cartridges, and
the main water line, made of polypropilene tubing.
3) At each point of use there is a derivation feeding a
Spiratrex point-of-use filter.

We are installing a new point of use.
I would like to know if someone can help me with the following information
Can the derivation be made with Silicone tubing ?
Is any kind of silicone tubing acceptable for electronic grade water ?
  
Is any other elastomer acceptable for electronic grade
water tubing ?

Sincerely
