SPEED This precise in-store lab is simple to use, just add the pool or spa water sample using the pre-calibrated 3 mL pipettor to the sealed vials which contain all the reagents needed for each test. The vials are inverted, placed in the colorimeter chamber and the results are ready in an instant. A complete set of tests can be completed in less than 4 minutes. Later in the season, if metals tests are omitted, testing times can be reduced to 2 minutes. When completed, the vials are thrown out and the next test is started. With all the necessary reagents in disposable vials, there’s no time wasted in test preparation or cleanup. Since there are no tubes to clean for future testing, overall time savings are doubled. The margin for error is also significantly reduced since the user no longer has to measure reagents and the simple-to use pre-calibrated pipettor saves time by adding the correct amount of water sample to the vials. MORE TESTS This versatile new colorimeter allows analyst to measure other tests such as Biguanide, Biguanide Shock, Phosphate and Manganese using either liquid reagents or TesTabs® tablet reagents (see chart). The ability to run these test only improves the retailer’s expertise in resolving water quality issues and allows the user to measure all their tests on one complete in-store lab. Another bonus allows the English text on the meter to convert to Spanish, French, Italian and Portuguese.
