Industry: Software

Press Release Summary: Following the installation of Aitken Scientific's new
database management system and analysis software, information obtained by automated
data capture during the Purite water filtering process can be analysed using a new
graphical interface. The data is also now searchable by date, enabling accurate and
efficient maintenance monitoring.

Press Release Body: Thame, UK - Aitken Scientific's specialist scientific software
is providing improved data access to Purite water purification units for fully
traceable water quality monitoring in laboratory, healthcare and industrial
applications.

Aitken's highly qualified software engineers used their instrument interfacing
expertise to create intelligent custom software for the collection and storage of
water data ranging from temperature to feed quality. The previous data capture
system could gather the large amounts of data generated but with output limited to a
lengthy printout, identifying trends or potential problems was a laborious and
inefficient process. Generating results in a graphical format for straightforward
trend analysis, the new database management system is searchable by date to allow
effective maintenance monitoring.

Logged data is now more accessible and the user friendly interface allows personnel
to make informed decisions on water quality. By closely monitoring machine alarms,
preventative maintenance schedules can be implemented reducing equipment downtime
and improving water quality.
