Bathing water intelligence for municipalities

The future of bathing water monitoring is continuous.

Beach Pulse continuously estimates E. coli levels in bathing water, giving you better information, fewer laboratory tests and lower monitoring costs.

More data. Fewer tests. Better decisions.

Validated in real bathing waters

Beach Pulse combines multiple calibrated water-quality measurements, environmental data and a proprietary algorithm to estimate E. coli concentrations from about 5-5,000 CFU/100 ml. The technology has been deployed and validated in live waters, not only in the laboratory.

From periodic testing to continuous intelligence

Laboratory tests provide an accurate snapshot. Beach Pulse provides the information between those snapshots. Continuous monitoring shows when conditions change, so laboratory testing can be focused where and when it is needed.

Periodic lab samples

An accurate snapshot. Long gaps in between.

Continuous estimation

The information between samples. Test when the data says it is needed.

What the municipality gets

Continuous monitoring

See what happens between individual samples.

Targeted lab testing

Test when the data indicates verification is needed.

Lower total cost

Gain better information with fewer expensive routine tests.

A new standard for bathing water monitoring

For decades, bathing water monitoring has meant collecting samples, sending them to a laboratory and waiting for results. Beach Pulse brings that process into the digital age.

Continuous monitoring is not just more efficient. It is the next step.
