Test equipment specialist Testo has supplied its Saveris 2 temperature and humidity data logging system to Stansted Laboratories’ facility in Barking, East London. Stansted Laboratories is a UKAS-accredited laboratory of 20 staff analysing over 50,000 samples a year in a purpose built facility. It specialises in microbiological analysis of water and air, and especially Legionella testing of water and drinking water bacteriological analysis.
Maintaining precise temperatures within its devices and cold room is essential to ensure accuracy and for compliance with UKAS requirements, as is maintaining a detailed record. Stansted Laboratories had been monitoring and recording equipment temperatures manually, but as the company grew this became a time-consuming, labour-intensive activity.
Following a site visit, Testo recommended its Saveris 2 system, a cost-effective, flexible temperature and humidity data logging solution specifically designed for small- to medium-sized applications, which still provides the accuracy and reliability of larger Saveris 1 system.
The entire system is automated, needs no maintenance except for annual recalibration, staff do not require training, and is easily expandable and simple to install. When Stansted Laboratories recently expanded into adjacent premises, staff simply picked up the data loggers and moved them with the equipment without any need for assistance.
