WaterGiene

ATP Water Test

The WaterGiene is a simple 20-second test with enhanced sensitivity measuring total ATP in water and on wet surfaces. Suitable for CIP systems, purified water systems, cooling water, clean rooms, surgical instruments, fermentation/tablet press equipment and rinse water. Can swirl in a water sample or swab a surface.

Enhanced ATP sensitivity to microbes using vacuum filtration for fast remediation. Recyclable components, patented thread design, pre-moistened swab with biofilm-breaking tip and metal-detectable foil seal. Compatible with novaLUM II-X via dedicated H2OG channel.
