Ref. 436 300
Scan 300 is an automatic colony counter that includes the essential features for Petri dish counting. It is specifically adapted to the usual media in food microbiology: PCA, MRS...
Pour and surface
Counting of pour and surface plating mode on Ø 55 - 90 mm Petri dishes.
Spiral
Counting of Spiral plating mode on Ø 55 - 90 mm Petri dishes.
Circle
Counting of circle plating mode on Ø 55 - 90 mm Petri dishes.
Before/after counting on total count
The counting of Petri dishes is long, tedious and can vary from person to person. The Scan 300 can count up to 1000 colonies in 1 second in a constant and repeatable manner. Counting can be up to 98% accuracy. The minimum colony size is 0.1 mm.
Manual counting
Automatic counting
The Scan software complies with FDA recommendations, particularly on audit trail and security of results.
The user account management, integrated in the software, allows the creation of up to 5 levels of rights. The Supervisor-Administrator has all the roles while the other roles are subject to certain rights. Password management secures user accounts.
SIL/LIMS connection
Bar-codes
dataLink
Scan 300 connects to the LIMS in bi-directionality and can be connected to the diluter and automatic plater via dataLink, the traceability system.
CSV
After each approved counting, the Scan 300 automatically saves and exports the counting parameters and results to a CSV file.

Scan 300 offers multiple export possibilities to save manual input time. It also increases the security and quality of your analyses. Usually, Petri dishes are thrown away after counting and no further verification is possible in the event of a claim. With Scan software, all reports are archived.
Export your results to your PC or archive them in CSV, ExcelTM, OpenOfficeTM, PDF, SCA, BIO format. You can also export images from the camera in JPEG, PNG and BMP format.
All data, images, photos and results are exportable in printable reports, sca, pdf, jpg, xls, csv.
Printed report example
Thanks to the Dark Field technology and its low lighting, colonies are easy to count. The operator does not tire his eyes.
dataLink is a complete traceability system for the microbiological analysis of a sample, from its plating with easySpiral Pro or easySpiral Dilute platers to colony counting. After incubation, the reading of the datamatrix code makes it possible to collect the information of the sample and its plating and to automatically launch on the colony counter the associated parameters.
Scan automatic colony counters have 3-YEAR warranty (parts and labour) just by sending the warranty card back.
The Scan 300 colony counter is used in the food, environmental, pharmaceutical, cosmetics, veterinary and public institutes research.
