Dark Field: The Best Lighting For Accuracy
Interscience has designed a long-lasting white LED lighting system. Their circular design allows optimized contrast and highlights each colony for accurate and fast counting. The brightness is adjustable.
With standard neon lighting, the yellowish light diffuses into the agar and colonies. Because the lighting is random and the contrast is imperfect, colonies are difficult to count and the operator is dazzled.
With Dark Field Technology, the light does not diffuse itself. The indirect lighting is precise and the contrast is optimal. Therefore, colonies are easy to count, and there is no eye fatigue for the operator.
Touch Surface With Adjustable Sensitivity
Counting with Scan 100 is intuitive: as you count the colonies on your dish, a haptic touch pulse is accompanied by an audible tone. Sensitivity is adjustable via the "sensitivity" wheel.
Great Ergonomics
The inclined reading plane and hand rest ensure comfort during the count. An integrated storage space is provided for the counting grids. Scan 100 is compatible with all types of pens or markers.
Traceability
Save time by exporting via USB, LIMS, Excel™ the data recorded during the count. This will prevent errors in rewriting results.
Applications
The Scan 100 colony counter is used in the food, environmental, pharmaceutical, cosmetics, veterinary and public institutes research.
Warranty
Scan automatic colony counters have 3-YEAR warranty (parts and labour) just by sending the warranty card back.
