Year-End Data Shows Clients Using Website Features
One of the important initiatives for YORK in 2015 was to continue updating the web-based tools available to clients through yorklab.com and the YORK Web-App. 40 percent of website use in 2015 was through mobile devices. This is a 100% increase over the previous year, and a trend that has guided our recent design update. Clients can easily access data, schedule pick-up/delivery or review holding time and glassware requirement charts. Online sample pick-up and glassware delivery requests doubled from the previous year, with 48% more usage of the web-based courier request system. Several updates to both the website and YORK App courier request features have simplified the order process and tied requests directly to our LIMS and courier field software.
In 2016, YORK will make significant updates to YORK's EDD creator on DataPORT. Using direct client feedback as the guide, several time-saving activities are being added to the tool so that clients can download and review data in the formats they need.
If you're not using DataPORT yet to review your lab data, email clientservices@yorklab.com to have an account set up. You can access reports, see the status of your samples in real-time, access invoices and other helpful tools any time of the day or night.

Accurate, Reliable, Documented Flow Controller Calibration for TO-15 Integrated Sampling
YORK has invested in new technology, the FlowProfessor™, to provide the most accurate way to calibrate flow controllers for TO-15 sampling. The system automatically adjusts the flow controller to obtain the correct flow every time and it is documented.
The FlowProfessor™ software even adjusts for estimated field temperatures and sampling site elevation, if provided to YORK in advance, to optimize sampling rates under any environmental conditions.
Sampling times can be calibrated for many different durations from 1 to 24 hours or even up to 2 weeks when using the new Entech flow controllers with greater low-flow stability in conjunction with the FlowProfessor™.
A very important feature of the FlowProfessor™ is the ability to verify that the critical orifice is leak-free and able to maintain flow for the duration of the sampling period. This will minimize failure rate for the orifices sent to the field.
The software generates a calibration report for documentation purposes. This report can then be sent with the flow controller if project needs dictate this level of traceability.
