PrimeLab 2.0 & LabCOM® - More than 140 water parameters with free-of-charge Cloud Service

Water-i.d. GmbH is a Germany-based company specialising in water control. Founded in 2003, the company offers a variety of innovative products, including photometers, reagents (tube tests, tablets, powders, liquids), electrochemical probes, comparators, electronic measuring devices, test strips, test blocks and bacterial test kits.

All products are sold in more than 100 countries around the globe and serve various industries, such as the laboratory market, the drinking water, wastewater and shipping industries, food processing and many more. The company combines modern technology with proven testing methods. As a result, the Water-i.d.® has received multiple awards from various sources for its innovative strength.

The PrimeLab 2.0 is the perfect solution for professional water analysis under laboratory conditions. This is an extremely powerful hand-held photometer that is capable of detecting up to 18 different wavelengths from IR to UV in parallel. More than 140 different water parameters can be determined, with corresponding LEDs positioned at both 180° and 90° to enable NTU turbidity, PTSA and fluorescein measurements. Very narrow peaks between 390 and 950 nm enable highly accurate detection, bringing the device's performance close to that of spectrophotometers. The device's firmware can interpolate between these wavelengths, while some parameter curves are set to use multiple wavelengths for the most accurate test results. An 8.400 mAh battery guarantees satisfactory runtimes even when there is no power outlet nearby. By using a high-resolution 5.5-inch colour display with capacitive touch function, the control panel also looks very similar to modern smartphones and can be operated in the same way. The measurement process is shown on the display in a simple step-by-step guide, making it easier for the user to take measurements. The device also has a built-in camera which can be used to scan QR-codes, printed on Water-i.d.® reagent packages. This makes every measurement even more comfortable and prevents user mistakes.

Modern hardware stands and falls in today's world with the appropriate software. For this reason, the functionality of Water-i.d.® photometers has been extensively enhanced with a powerful cloud service. By using the free LabCOM® software family, you simply get more out of your measurement results than you were previously used to. The photometer automatically synchronises the measurement data with the LabCOM® cloud as soon as it is connected to a Wi-Fi network and saves them in the user's personal cloud storage. This means that measurement data, including all associated information such as user and measuring sources, are not only stored independently of the device, but can also be statistically evaluated and processed. The LabCOM® Cloud itself provides numerous functions for this. You can access the cloud via the free software versions for Windows®, Android® or iOS® or via the web application.

In addition to photometry, Water-i.d. offers semi-professional manual test systems. These include comparator systems, in which water samples are coloured using reagents and visually compared with colour scales. This method is robust, cost-effective and particularly suitable for routine checks. The devices are ergonomically designed, durable and easy to use. They are used worldwide in private and public swimming pools, for drinking water monitoring and in industrial applications.
