Scan 1200 HD Automatic Colony Counter

Scan 1200 is an HD automatic colony counter. It adapts itself to all media and counts in 1 click all colonies even the smallest ones. It ensures accuracy and excellent reproducibility. Images and results are saved automatically. Scan 1200 is also an inhibition zone reader.

• Minimum size of detected colony: 0.05 mm
• Camera: 1.2 megapixels - zoom x 28
• Counting on Ø 55 - 90 mm round Petri dishes
• Counting on pour, surface, Spiral, circle mode plated Petri dishes
• Counting on chromogenic agar, PetriFilm^TM, MC-media Pads^TM, Compact Dry^TM, Easy Plate^TM, filtration membranes
• Inhibition zone reader

Large reading range

The Scan 1200 allows reading on Ø 55 - 90 mm Petri dishes and works with numerous media and supports. Scan 1200 reads also inhibition zones on round Petri dishes.

Inhibition zone reading

Accuracy and repeatability

The counting of Petri dishes is long, tedious and can vary from one person to another.

The Scan 1200 can count up to 1000 colonies in 1 second in a constant and repeatable mode. Counting accuracy reach up to 98%. The minimum colony size is 0.05 mm.

21 CFR Part 11 included

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.

Traceability

Data import

Scan 1200 connects to the LIMS in bi-directionality and can be connected to the diluter and plater via dataLink traceability system.

Data recording

After each approved counting, the Scan 4000 automatically saves and exports the counting parameters and results to a CSV file.

Data export

Scan 1200 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 1200, all reports are archived.

Export your results to your PC or archive them in CSV, Excel^TM, OpenOffice^TM, PDF, SCA, BIO format. You can also export images from the camera in JPEG, PNG and BMP format.

Print of the results

All data, images, photos and results are exportable in printable reports, sca, pdf, jpg, xls, csv.

Dark Field lighting technology

Thanks to the Dark Field technology and its low lighting, colonies are easy to count. The operator does not tire his eyes.

Ideal with dataLink full traceability system

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.

Warranty

Scan 1200 automatic colony counters have 3-YEAR warranty (parts and labour) just by sending the warranty card back.

Applications

The Scan 1200 colony counter is used in the food, environmental, pharmaceutical, cosmetics, veterinary and public institutes research.
