PCE-ATP 1 Food Safety / Hygiene - ATP Surface Test Instrument
Enables rapid detection of bacterial or microbial residue / Stores up to 10,000 date- and time-stamped data records to internal memory / Provides connectivity via USB and Bluetooth printer interfaces / Includes PC software for analysis
PCE-ATP 1 is a food safety / hygiene - ATP test instrument, ATP meter, lumitester or luminometer used for surface testing. This luminometer allows for quick and easy first-generation adenosine triphosphate (ATP) testing and monitoring to ensure proper cleanliness, sterilization and sanitization. PCE-ATP 1 is an ATP tester that can be used for cleanliness control and documentation in many different applications.
Basic operation
Use PCE-ATP SWAB (sold separately - see accessories) to take a sample of the surface to be tested. Press the swab all the way down into the tube, so the swab comes into contact with the reaction liquid and reagent. Gently shake the tube to ensure the sample is fully covered. Insert the whole test tube into the measuring chamber of the PCE-ATP 1 testing device. After 10 seconds, the measurement results are shown in relative light units (RLUs) on the device display.
