Lovibond Scuba 3s 216200 Pool Test Kit
Its ergonomic design remains the same: The Scuba 3s also fits comfortably in one hand. The back is flattened, so it fits perfectly anywhere. With its screw-on battery compartment, this electronic pool tester is waterproof and will provide you with reliable results every time you enjoy your pool. With 4 multifunction buttons, accompanied by intuitive animations and icons, you can easily navigate the user menu on the larger display.
Smart electronic pool tester for sophisticated pool and spa monitoring.
There’s no pool in the world without the Scuba. With the new generation of the popular electronic pool tester, monitoring pool hygiene is now even faster, more versatile, user-friendly, and straightforward.
Mobile test management included!
Complies with the UNE-ISO 17381 standard, which regulates testing kits for water quality control.

Light signals
The Scuba3s’ indicator lights directly show whether the measurement result is “within range” or not via the display’s colored backlight. If the light turns green, the measurement result is within the ideal measurement range, and you can start enjoying the water. If the light turns red, caution is advised: The measurement result is above or below the globally accepted range for safe swimming. Data analysis with the PoolAssistant app also classifies results using green and red indicator colors. The app also helps you identify the cause.

PoolAssistant App: Quick Overview Anytime, Anywhere
The PoolAssistant app helps you analyze the measurement results. After transmission via NFC, up to 3 users can immediately view the data for each monitoring parameter for up to 5 pools. The app also displays the results in the form of charts and offers tools for pool management, such as maintenance and water quality. All important questions about pool water care, water hygiene, and the Langelier index are answered in the FAQ section. You can also find valuable tips there.

More monitoring parameters than previous models
With 11 tests, the Scuba3s offers even more options for monitoring pool water quality based on the most important parameters. Available at the touch of a button: Chlorine (total, free, combined), bromine, pH, alkalinity-m, calcium hardness, cyanuric acid, active oxygen, copper, and phosphate provide information on whether your pool water quality is optimal. The measurement process is now even faster.

NFC: Data Transfer via Chip
The Scuba3s’ passive NFC chip ensures wireless data transfer to an external device with an active NFC reader (e.g., smartphones). It works the same way as a credit card when making a purchase: Simply hold your smartphone close to the Scuba3s, and everything is recorded on the device. All data logs are transferred simultaneously and are immediately available for analysis in the PoolAssistant app. A data log includes the device’s serial number and firmware version, the name and number of the test method, the measurement data and time, the results, and the units. Cloud storage for data is also available.
