Water Biosense® PLUS advanced Legionella detection in hospitals

At the 41st National Congress of Hospital Engineering, held in Seville, Sensactive Technology had the opportunity to present its advanced device, Water Biosense® PLUS, for the advanced detection of *Legionella pneumophila* in hospitals. This event, which brings together leaders and experts in hospital engineering from all over Spain, was the perfect stage to showcase the innovative real-time microbiological analysis system, specifically designed to meet the critical water quality needs of hospital facilities. We were supported by Imangener, our exclusive partner for the distribution of the device in the hospital sector.

Water Biosense® PLUS: Comprehensive Solution for Hospitals


Water Biosense® PLUS is an integrated system for the real-time detection and monitoring of microbiological agents of interest, such as *Legionella pneumophila*. This device enables hospitals to continuously control pathogen levels in their water systems, with the capability to analyze up to five sampling points at critical locations such as cooling towers, domestic hot water tanks, recirculation points, and mains water. Its modular and robust design allows for comprehensive monitoring in complex networks, providing a reliable and precise solution to maintain microbiological safety in hospital facilities.

Key Specifications of the Water Biosense® PLUS Device for Advanced Legionella Detection in Hospitals
The Water Biosense® PLUS device stands out as an essential tool for real-time water quality analysis in hospitals, offering advanced detection of Legionella and other critical microbiological agents:

  • Real-Time and Continuous Analysis: Designed to provide immediate microbiological quality data, it detects pathogenic microorganisms such as Legionella pneumophila with 97.5% sensitivity.

  • Multi-Point Critical Sampling: Enables monitoring of up to five sampling points located in critical hospital areas. Each point can be up to 25 meters away from the main unit, allowing broad coverage within the facility.

  • Quantitative Detection of Viable Pathogens: Uses nanotechnology-based biosensors to detect live microorganisms, providing a fast and effective response for real-time decision-making.

  • Robust and Modular Design: Featuring an IP65 protective cabinet and a robust hydraulic and electronic component system, the device is built to withstand the demanding conditions of hospital use. It includes an easy-to-use Schneider touchscreen for configuration and data visualization.

  • Autonomous and Configurable Operation: Sampling frequency is programmable, with adjustable analysis cycles ranging from 5 to 3600 minutes, adapting to the specific needs of each facility.

  • Water Biosense Manager: Real-Time Management Platform: Supported by the Water Biosense Manager platform, hospitals can visualize and control the microbiological status of water in real time, fully integrating with hospital management systems to streamline decision-making.
