Potable water analysis

Onboard water distribution systems can harbour many potential human health hazards.

Our test kit enables ship staff to monitor the quality of the drinking water on board the ship. The range of tests can be used on the ship either as a standalone control solution or as a supplement to laboratory analysis, dependent on flag state guidelines.

Here’s what our test kits will reveal:

1. Water chemistry

Evaluate sample pH, minerals and other elements such as copper, iodine and iron. Detection is based on colorimetry (color) and turbidimetry (particles).

 

2. Microbiology

 

 

Analyse the microbiological characteristics of the water, including coliform bacteria and Enterococci.

Further analyses will reveal the quantity of bacteria. The result is then compared with a table to see if the sample falls within the acceptable range as defined by regulatory authorities.

Legionella pneumophila
The Legionella bacteria is part of the microbiology category, but deserves special attention.
Colonies typically form in stagnant water at room temperature. You should test for legionella:

Before embarking on a journey, particularly in hotspots for stagnant water.
In the event of a suspected outbreak.

Optimal safety. Minimal effort
