UNIVERSAL RAPID LEGIONELLA TEST KIT

Posted by admin

Universal Rapid Legionella1000x1000

KEY FEATURES

  • Ideal for mobile treatment engineers.
  • Compact & portable design.
  • Rapid detection of Legionella Bacteria.
  • Results achieved in 30-35 minutes.
  • Detects Legionella pneumophila serogroup 1 bacteria.
  • Easy to follow test procedure.
  • Everything included to perform 5 tests.

UNIVERSAL RAPID LEGIONELLA TEST KIT

The Universal Rapid Legionella Test kit is a breakthrough in technology from Hyrdosense for the rapid detection of legionella bacteria in industrial water. Test results can be obtained in minutes instead of days.

The industrial legionella kits provides the user:

  • Fast results.
  • High sensitivity.
  • In-line sampling.

 

The test kit contains all the items required to perform 5 tests – including filters, recovery buffer, collection vessel and sample point.

LEGIONELLA CONTROL

This Legionella field test kit uses immunochromatographic assay, to detect the presence of cell surface antigens from Legionella bacteria in a sample.

The presence of antigen causes the ‘Test Line’ to turn red in colour. A ‘Control Line’ is included which should always turn red if the test has been performed correctly.

These tests are optimised for use with industrial water systems, cooling towers and whirlpool spas.

The filtration step needs no pumping, just connect the sample point to the water system and use the system pressure to drive the filtration.

The test follows a simple procedure and the results easily obtained within 30 to 35 minutes. Once the result is obtained the treatment engineer can asses the water condition and complete any treatment necessary to ensure there is no risk of out breaks and subsequent litigation.

START CLEAN & STAY CLEAN

A clean environment is key to producing safe, quality foods. By incorporating ATP monitoring into preoperative equipment inspection and change-over cleaning verification, quality personnel can verify equipment cleanliness in seconds. Your facility is only as clean as you start, so it’s best to start the day right.

PROVEN PERFORMANCE

The SystemSURE™ Plus line of ATP monitoring systems has been used by food and beverage processors for over 10 years. Not only are they designed to last, but more importantly, to perform better than all other systems on the market.

WORK MORE EFFECTIVELY

When you set up your ATP monitoring program, you will determine where and when testing should occur. The SystemSURE™ Plus makes it easy to manage all your test locations by storing up to 251 locations in an organized group called a Test Plan. When you’re ready to test, simply select the Test Plan that corresponds to the area, equipment, or day, and the SystemSURE™ Plus will bring up all the locations you need to test in that plan.

MINIMAL SIZE, MAXIMUM DURABILITY

The SystemSURE™ Plus is designed for convenient, single-hand use to make using the system and navigating the menus easy for every user. Don’t let the petite shape fool you – SystemSURE™ Plus makes no compromises when it comes to durability. The rugged outer shell and splash-proof keypad keep SystemSURE™ Plus Plus safe in the harshest environments. For extra protection, every system comes with a complimentary carrying case with a shoulder strap for hands-free transportation to test locations in your facility.

 profilesuresystem

IMPROVED TECHNOLOGY

SystemSURE™ Plus uses a state-of-the-art Photodiode sensor technology that enables superior sensitivity and stability over bulky Photomultiplier Tube (PMT) sensors. This tiny sensor allows our device to be smaller, lighter, more durable, and longer lasting than systems using a large, fragile PMT sensor.

EASY CALIBRATION

Built in sensor checks and a Calibration Control Kit sold separately make verifying calibration effortless. Simply turn on the self-check feature and every time the system is powered on, calibration will be confirmed. With the internal self-check and the calibration kit, you’ll always be confident the system is within specifications. In addition, you’ll avoid costly and inconvenient yearly calibration charges that other manufacturers require.

BOILER MONITORING KIT

The DTK comprehensive Boiler Test Kit has been developed specifically for engineers and treatment professionals responsible for the maintaining and management of boiler systems. This test kit has been designed to include the key parameters which enable the monitoring of samples in these water systems ensuring optimum operating conditions are maintained.

The kit provides accuracy and speed, utilising drop test and comparator reagents together with electronic meters for the most efficient monitoring of water samples. The reagents and equipment are specified below.

The BTK001 is supplied in a robust carry case with reagents and instruments secured by a high quality chemical resistant foam insert with sufficient chemical reagents to carry out between 100 and 200 tests.

INDUSTRIAL WATER TREATMENT

Boiler water systems and boiler feedwater systems require regular and careful monitoring to ensure the correct water conditions are maintained within an approved treatment programme.

Any failure to maintain the correct levels and dosing of the chemical treatments can lead to:

  • Corrosion of the system (leaks).
  • Formation of scale (blocked pipes).
  • Increased biological activity.

 

These can lead to unstable water conditions with potential negative consequences to the life of the plant and operating costs.

INCUBATION OF DIPLIDE TESTS

Dipslides are used to establish and asses if the conditions present in a water system encourage bacteria to multiply. Once the sample has been collected the dipslide requires incubation at 30 °C for 48 hours to obtain a true result and consistently time after time.

A dipslide incubator is a critical element of microbiological monitoring. A lower temperature can mean the bacteria will grow more slowly and give a false low reading. If your reading is artificially low then the treatment engineer will consider that no action is necessary and the bacteria will be free to multiply and increase the risk to public health. Conversely if the temperature is high then the growth may be accelerated giving a false positive. This false high bacteria count can lead to unnecessary and expensive extra cleaning and treatment processes.

Approved code of practice and guidance for the control of legionella bacteria in water systems requires weekly monitoring of microbiological activity.

GNAT INCUBATOR

The Gnat Incubator has the capacity to incubate two dipslides at a preset temperature of 30 °C. The two heated dipslide cells will hold standard MicroSlide Dipslides or non-screw top dipslides.

This compact 2 dipslide Incubator has been designed with industry standard heating technology to meet the incubation required for L8 legionella control monitoring. It is specifically intended for those treatment engineers who have a routine requirement to monitor a single cooling tower.

There is no confusing set up as the incubator is factory set to 30 °C, just plug it in and switch it on. It will be at 30 °C in 30 minutes.

Running on the supplied 220 / 240 V mains power lead or an optional 12 V power lead for use in a standard car lighter socket, it is protected by an internal fuse and has an over-temp protection for safe extended use.

Simplicity of operation, maintenance free, 30 minute minute warm up period, the incubation of your dipslides couldn’t be easier!
