5.1.3

Conduct a microbiological water test

Perform the microbiological test of the water from the treatment center
at regular intervals and after longer periods of disuse > 1 week; see
"Media quality" [→ 16]. Start the checkups in intervals of no more than
two weeks and adjust the time intervals depending on the results. In
addition to running laboratory tests, you can also use the "Total Count
Tester" as a simple means of performing this test.
To order the motor total count tester, see "Spare parts and
consumables" [→ 324].
IMPORTANT
Shelf life of the total count tester
The maximum shelf life of the total count tester is 1 year after the date
of receipt.
The cardboard disk contains a dehydrated culture medium. It is
activated by the sample and serves as culture medium for a number of
bacteria. The bacterial count provides information on the hygiene quality
of the water.
Be careful not to touch the inside of the test container or the part of the
tester to be immersed (with nutrient medium) prior to incubation.
1. Press the tumbler filler for at least one minute.
2. Allow water to run out of the 3-way syringe into the cuspidor for
about 1 minute.
3. Use the 3-way syringe to fill cold water into the test container up to
its upper mark.
4. To neutralize the disinfecting agent of the water sample, add
approx. 1.5 g of fixing salt (sodium thiosulfate). Fixing salt can be
obtained in pharmacies or from chemical dealers.
