Q: How can I be sure the ChemDash solution is future-proof?

A: Our goal has always been is to offer a truly future-proof, flexible and high value service. One important ingredient is the ability to add your own data to the system and work with it. The Serstech solution supports this in several ways:
• You can create your own spectral databases locally, in the instrument. These can then be used as a reference in any of the embedded scan methods. You can use your own data separately, or mix it with licensed data while sampling.
• The ChemDash system lets you collect all your data and assemble your own packages, complete with customized chemical information messaging, which can be displayed locally in the instrument whenever a match is found. Additionally, you can download your databases to one or several instrument to ensure they are always up-to-date. Serstech’s experts are always on hand to assist you in setting up the system and aligning it fully with your needs.
• The Serstech instrument´s user interface features multi-language support and new languages are added on a regular basis.
• We also continuously improve existing features and develop new ones. These improvements are released as firmware updates, available to all our customers.
