Hi Manish,
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Critical Systems recently released a facility management software system the besides other things, records gas usage on a day by day basis so you can see if you are trending down and when you have a spike on usage. It could help you get your usage under
control. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>If you want to see Ngoc on it, let me know.</div>

Subject: [labnetwork] Liquid nitrogen and argon shortage</p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">Hello everyone,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">We just learned that there is a severe shortage of liquid nitrogen and argon in the US. Our entire lab will be impacted by this and we will need to evaluate consumption of these gases for different tools in our Nano fabrication center
and make priority for tools usage based on that. Nitrogen is used as a purge gas for pumps and equipment and we will be looking into tools that consume significant amount of nitrogen and how to minimize their use or use them more efficiently.<o:p></o:p></p>
