Wagtech™ Potatest Dual

As one of the only kits with twin incubators, the Potatest Dual is ideal for those who have a high volume of microbiological samples to process. The Wagtech™ Potatest is suited to emergency response monitoring as well as rural water quality monitoring across several locations.

 

Tests…

  • Chemical tests for free chlorine, total chlorine, and combined chlorine
  • Physical tests for turbidity and pH
  • Microbiological tests for thermotolerant/faecal coliforms and total coliforms

Featuring twin digital incubators, this kit is capable of carrying out simultaneous incubation of both thermotolerant and total coliforms. Custom incubation profiles allow the user to conduct a wider range of bacteriological parameters.

• Complete indicator organism analysis – determine both faecal/thermotolerant and total coliforms simultaneously or use a variety of Nutridisks

• Convenient kit format – all required items are laid out for ergonomic use and aseptic procedures

• Manage date – download incubator data and add colony counts for a complete microbiological report.
