Starter Kit - Lumitester A3 SMART

Working in tandem with our Lucipac swabs, the Lumitester A3 Smart System detects all organic residue and microorganisms on surfaces and in liquids, determining levels of cleanliness within seconds. 

A3 Technology detects not only ATP, but also the lower-energy molecules ADP and AMP. Consequently, the device offers you far greater visibility and sensitivity when it comes to cleaning effectiveness.

As with conventional ATP tests, the system can NOT be used for the direct detection of allergens. However, due to its ability to detect all organic residue, the A3 system could support your allergen management program. Click here to learn more about this possibility.

The A3 Lumitester Smart is a quick and simple device for hygiene control and rapid detection of food and residues on surfaces. With Bluetooth connection, the unit sends results wirelessly to your mobile or tablet, or alternatively via a cable to your PC. There is also a cloud app for storing and presenting the data.

The ATP test is one of the most commonly used hygiene tests, but in reality ATP is very unstable molecule, often downgrading into ADP and AMP.  This results in unreliable measurements by conventional ATP-only tests.  Using A3 technology, the Lumitester Smart detects ATP + ADP + AMP, offering unmatched sensitivity and finding the residues that were previously overlooked.

  • 12 month warranty.
  • Next day delivery for all swabs meaning there is no need to keep stock of swabs on site.

Swab Storage Conditions-

The LuciPac A3 Swabs should be stored at 2-8°C and should never be frozen. Under these conditions, they should be suitable for use until the expiry date on the box. We endeavour to supply the swabs with an expiry date of 12 months minimum. Alternatively, if you choose to store the swabs at 25°C, they will last 14 days unopened, and if you store them at 30°C, they will last five days unopened. Working closely with a team of microbiologists, Klipspringer provides ongoing support for your A3 system. This involves helping you to choose the right number of swabs for each order and giving you the option of staggering your deliveries to secure swabs with the optimum lifespan.

The LuciPac A3 Surface system has been evaluated by the AOAC® Performance Tested Methods℠ Program and was found to perform to the manufacturer’s specifications. The two laboratories that independently carried out this testing were: NSF International and Q Laboratories.

A: ATP molecules are not stable and downgrade very quickly when exposed to external factors like use of chemicals or high temperatures. A3 swabs use Luciferce with higher turnaround and recycling process that can detect ATP as well as downgraded forms of ATP – ADP and AMP. Thanks to this process results from A3 swabs are more stable and repetitive.

A: Our swabs can be stored in room temperature (25.0°C) for up to 4 weeks.
For long term storage we recommend storing the swabs in refrigerator at 2-8°C.

A: Ambient temperature of 20-22°C provides optimal performance for A3 swabs.  
The swab devices should be allowed to reach room temperature prior to testing if they are from refrigerated stock.
Do not let the swabs sit out in temperatures exceeding 35°C. High temperatures may cause product performance to drop.

Q:How does A3 system perform in production using dry products Bakeries or cereal production?

A: In production facilities like bakeries or cereal factories, most of the products are exposed to high heat. High temperatures can instantly degrade ATP to ADP and AMP. As a result, standard ATP testing may not be adequate in this application, and there is a high likelihood of recording false-negative results. This issue also applies to breweries.

How thorough is your cleaning verification process?
