Teagasc Wexford are introducing automation into their Water Testing
Laboratory. Sample bottles are loaded offline into removable
trolleys and wheeled into the system, this allows almost non-stop
operation of the system with minimal setup time. Potable water
bottles are de-capped and presented to the Aquakem. Test information
is passed to the Aquakem unit via the systems 'ASTM' link and allows
each sample to be processed with any combination of tests. The
Labman automated sampling system will dramatically increase the
sample throughput in the laboratory. |
