The Colony Counter from Wiggens is a valuable piece of laboratory equipment designed for precise microbial analysis. Trusted by scientists across South Africa, it significantly improves both counting accuracy and workflow efficiency.
Built-in Electronic Register
The deluxe model includes a built-in electronic register that works with any standard pen. This intuitive design allows for fast, seamless data entry, helping you record results more efficiently and with greater precision.
Pressure Sensor System
The Colony Counter uses a pressure sensor system that offers uniform sensitivity across the entire working surface. As a result, it ensures consistent and reliable counting—whether you’re analyzing bacterial colonies, coliforms, or other microorganisms.
Flexible Adjuster and Reset Function
The easy-to-use reset button instantly sets the 4-digit counter back to zero, allowing you to start fresh with each new sample. Moreover, the flexible dish holder adjusts to fit Petri dishes between 5 cm and 10 cm, providing flexibility for various sample sizes.
Adjustable Focusing Arm
The adjustable focusing arm lets you raise or lower the 1.5x magnifying lens to suit your viewing needs. You can also rotate the lens 360 degrees, which gives you full access to the Petri dish and improves overall visibility for more accurate colony counting.
Customizable Background Plate
You can easily switch the background plate between black and white, allowing better contrast when viewing colonies. This adaptable feature simplifies the counting process, especially when working with different media or colony colors.
