The TECTA™ B16 and TECTA™ B4 are complete, self-contained automated microbiology testing systems for water quality capable of producing laboratory grade results with unprecedented 'time-to-result' performance. Tests can be inititated at any time, with automatic reporting of results that are sent directly via email notification to any device immediately upon detection.

• Rapid alerting with no fixed incubation delay
• High reliability with minimal handling of samples
• No sample preparation or visual interpretation of results required
• High dynamic range eliminates need for multiple dilutions
• Direct testing of turbid samples
• Industry-standard enzyme indicators of target bacteria

The TECTA™ B16 has a capacity of up to 16 simultaneous tests for presence/absence with optional quantitative reporting in CFU per 100ml on positive results. Full automation of the test analysis and interpretation processes eliminates the need for subjective, visual interpretation of results. An objective, written test report is produced for each sample tested. Extreme ease of use means that even non technical personnel can initiate testing and perform all required quality assurance procedures to ensure laboratory grade test results.

TECTA™ B16 dimensions (W×D×H): 480×623×347 mm
Maximum height (open for cleaning): 628 mm

The TECTA™ B4 has all the features and benefits of the larger TECTA™ B16 but with only four testing compartments, giving it a much smaller footprint. The TECTA™ B4 is ideal for situations where multiple locations need stand-alone units or when testing requires the unit be transported to various external sites. In the lab, the unit has a much smaller footprint freeing up desk space while still performing the same high standard of testing as the larger model.

TECTA™ B4 dimensions (W×D×H): 305×486×275 mm
Maximum height (open for cleaning): 525 mm
