Product Overview
The LaMotte Mobile WaterLink Spin Touch Lab | 3581 is a professional portable digital water-analysis system designed for fast, precise pool and spa water testing. Using LaMotte’s sealed SpinDisk reagent cartridges, the Spin Touch automatically performs multiple water chemistry tests from a sample of less than 3 mL and can deliver a complete series of results in approximately 60 seconds.
Ideal for pool service professionals, commercial facilities, hotels, resorts, health departments, property managers, and pool owners who require consistent water testing, the Mobile WaterLink Spin Touch dramatically reduces manual testing steps, reagent handling, and operator error.
Important Reagent Notice
SpinDisk reagent cartridges are sold separately and are required to perform water testing. Different SpinDisk series provide different combinations of test factors. Select the appropriate SpinDisk based on the water chemistry parameters you need to test.
