Legionella L8 Kit

Comprehensive water quality testing for effective Legionella control programmes.


The DTK Legionella L8 Kit provides a practical and comprehensive solution for routine water quality monitoring, designed specifically for mobile treatment engineers and water professionals responsible for cooling and industrial water systems.


Bringing together essential testing equipment and reagents, the kit enables users to measure key water quality parameters that influence system condition, treatment effectiveness and the management of factors associated with Legionella risk.


Presented in a robust, portable carry case, the Legionella L8 Kit supports regular on-site testing, providing a convenient solution for weekly and monthly monitoring programmes across multiple water systems.

Comprehensive Water Quality Monitoring

Effective water system management requires regular monitoring of key chemical parameters to help maintain suitable operating conditions and support established Legionella control programmes.


The DTK Legionella L8 Kit provides testing capabilities for parameters including pH, conductivity, alkalinity, hardness, chloride, bromine and iron, allowing engineers to assess different aspects of water quality.


By bringing these measurements together in one practical kit, users can identify changes in water chemistry, monitor treatment performance and investigate conditions that may contribute to scaling, corrosion or reduced system efficiency.

Designed for Routine Field Testing

The DTK Legionella L8 Kit is developed for treatment engineers who require reliable testing equipment while working across multiple water systems and locations.


Its robust carry case keeps instruments, reagents and accessories organised and protected during transport, providing convenient access to the equipment required for routine analysis.


Clear product labelling and waterproof instructions support straightforward testing in demanding environments, helping engineers carry out consistent weekly and monthly monitoring procedures.

A Wide Range of Testing Parameters

The DTK Legionella L8 Kit combines multiple water testing methods within a single portable solution, providing flexibility for different monitoring and treatment requirements.


With the ability to measure nine water quality parameters, the kit supports routine checks of chemical conditions associated with treatment control, scaling and corrosion management.


This broad testing capability makes the L8 particularly useful for engineers responsible for maintaining multiple water systems, reducing the need to carry separate equipment for individual measurements.

Practical for Ongoing Monitoring

The DTK Legionella L8 Kit is designed to support regular water testing programmes, providing the equipment and reagents required for approximately 50 to 100 tests, depending on the parameter and test method.


Its portable format allows measurements to be carried out directly at the sampling location, helping engineers assess water conditions without relying on extensive laboratory facilities.


With essential testing components organised within one case, the kit provides a convenient and efficient approach to maintaining regular water quality checks across different sites.

Supporting Effective Legionella Risk Management

Regular water chemistry monitoring is an important part of effective water system management, helping operators maintain treatment conditions and identify changes that may require corrective action.


By combining multiple testing parameters with portable equipment and straightforward procedures, the DTK Legionella L8 Kit supports informed maintenance decisions and ongoing assessment of water treatment performance.


This makes the kit a practical solution for water treatment engineers and facilities professionals managing routine water quality monitoring as part of wider Legionella prevention and control programmes.
