Bring precision, simplicity, and intelligence to your water testing. The LiquiLab Photometer transforms traditional testing into a guided, digital experience – providing results you can trust, anywhere in the world. Designed for real-world conditions, it delivers unmatched accuracy through 18 parallel wavelengths, step-by-step touchscreen guidance, and instant cloud connectivity for complete fleet visibility.
Benefits
A photometer measures how much light passes through a sample to determine the concentration of substances in water. LiquiLab automates this process with digital precision – delivering results that are 5x more accurate than traditional comparator discs.
A focused light source – typically an LED or lamp – emits a specific wavelength through the water sample.
If the sample contains a reagent, it reacts with the target substance to form a coloured compound.
The photometer measures how much light is transmitted or absorbed by the sample
Higher light absorption indicates a higher concentration of the target substance in the water.
The photometer automatically calculates and displays the result as a precise numeric value (e.g., 1.2mg/L of free chlorine)
Once testing is complete, results are instantly uploaded to a secure cloud platform via Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, or USB. Fleet managers and onshore teams can view readings in real time, monitor compliance, and compare data across vessels.

A photometer is a water analysis instrument that measures how much light is absorbed by a water sample. In marine applications, it’s used to determine the concentration of substances such as chlorine, hardness, and other treatment chemicals, ensuring your water systems remain within safe and efficient limits.
Unlike manual comparator discs or test kits, the LiquiLab photometer provides digital water testing capabilities and logging. With eighteen parallel wavelengths, the LiquiLab photometer offers readings up to five times more accurate than traditional kits. It also guides crew members step–by-step via a 5.5” HD touchscreen display, reducing the likelihood of errors.
The LiquiLab digital water testing kit can be used across multiple applications, including potable, legionella, sewage, ballast, and boiler/cooling water testing. It’s a versatile tool for any vessel aiming to centralise and digitalise water quality management.
The system cleverly identifies reagents and test locations using QR scanning to prevent errors, and ensure every test is recorded correctly. Results are securely stored and instantly uploaded to the cloud for full compliance traceability.
Yes – the LiquiLab photometer performs a wide range of optical tests across potable, ballast, sewage, and boiler/cooling water. Using multiple wavelengths, it accurately detects a variety of chemical parameters.
