SmartChem® 450 - Customer Testimonial: Nilawar Laboratories (India)
In this video, the team at Nilawar Laboratories, an NABL-accredited testing laboratory serving India's agriculture and water sectors since 2001, shares how the SmartChem® 450 discrete analyzer transformed their daily wet chemistry operations. Handling everything from soil, water, and fertilizers to food products, the laboratory faces sharp increases in sample load during the government's Soil Health Card programme, and needed an automated system it could rely on at scale.
Filmed on site and produced by their KPM Analytics distributor, Anchrom Enterprises, the testimonial features three voices from the laboratory: Mr. Atharva Nilawar (Head of Laboratory), Ms. Priti Dehankar (Dy. Technical Manager, Chemistry), and Mr. Riturja Mavalankar (Head of Quality Management).
What the laboratory shares in this video:
- How automating soil and water analysis on the SmartChem® 450 lets the team process more than 300 samples per day with consistent, precise results
- Why a fully automated discrete analyzer, compliant with IS, APHA, EPA, and ISO methodologies, supports the reliability an NABL-accredited lab depends on
- The range of parameters run on a single platform, including nitrate, phosphate, ammonia, sulfate, chloride, boron, and iron in soil and water matrices
- How the system's low reagent and sample consumption cut cost per test by more than 200 rupees (about US$2) per sample
- Why reduced manual handling and less dependence on UV-visible spectrophotometers and AAS made routine analysis smoother for the team
