TIPS AND TRICKS

The computer that controls your instrument is an often forgotten about piece of the chemical analysis puzzle. Without this computer, how would you collect your data, process information, and get your reports out on time? Just like the rest of the instrument, the computer needs care and maintenance in order to run smoothly and provide a solid base for your instrument software. What should you do? The key to keeping a healthy and secure computer involves the following three steps;

1)      Back up and image your PC
2)      Defragment and disk check your hard disk
3)      Routinely scan and remove any malicious malware

How often should you back up your computer? Well, how much of your data are you willing to lose? Most newer operating systems automatically defragment your disk and check for malware, but on a operating system windows XP or older, you should set up a weekly schedule to perform disk check and defragmentation. A bit of time up front to maintain your PC will save you hours in the long run, and give you the peace of mind that your data and instrument are safe and sound!

MEET JEFF MEET JEFF, OUR SENIOR
TECHNICAL SALES
REPRESENTATIVE FOR
NORTHERN ALBERTA


Jeff Kelly started with K’(Prime) Technologies 10 years ago as a combined sales and service representative covering Saskatchewan. Three years ago Jeff made the move to Edmonton accepting the role of Technical Sales Representative for Northern Alberta, representing Agilent’s Chromatography and Mass Spectrometry products as well as K’(Prime)’s growing portfolio of instrumentation from other vendors.

After attaining a BSc in Biochemistry from the University of Regina, Jeff spent a few years working for Environmental Labs in Saskatoon and Edmonton. It was from the Environmental Lab in Edmonton that Jeff came across the opportunity at K’(Prime) and became the company’s seventh employee. With over 30 employees at present, Jeff has seen K’(Prime) grow from the company that fit into a single hot air balloon at the first annual meeting he attended to what it is today.

Jeff lives in Edmonton with his wife Jenn and two sons Ethan (5) and Ben (3). When he’s not working Jeff enjoys rooting for the Green Bay Packers, cooking, photography, photography of the food he cooks, the Green Bay Packers, playing guitar, watching nearly every sport (with the exception of soccer…which is ironic because he coaches his 5 year old’s soccer team), and the Green Bay Packers. Did we mention Jeff likes the Green Bay Packers?

Feel free to send your greetings to Jeff or connect with him on his LinkedIn account.

PROTECT YOUR INVESTMENTS

An instrument failure is serious business. It wastes time, sample, effort and money. Worst of all, it throws your lab off schedule – hurting your overall productivity, causing you to miss important deadlines and even calling your lab's overall reliability into question!
