ASHLAND ENHANCES DREW WATCH ELECTRONIC SERVICESTM SOFTWARE FOR USE WITH HIGH-PRESSURE BOILER SYSTEMS
04 June 2004 - Ashland Inc

DREW WATCH ELECTRONIC SERVICES software is an easy-to-use, PC-based software package to manage onboard boiler and cooling water treatment activities. It replaces manual tracking of water treatment conditions. DREW WATCH ELECTRONIC SERVICES software records, tracks, organizes and reports onboard water treatment test results. It functions like a VIRTUAL ONBOARD SERVICE ENGINEERSM by providing the crew with instructions to perform each test, test result interpretations and test importance. Additionally, DREW WATCH ELECTRONIC SERVICES software provides immediate corrective action recommendations to remedy out-of-range water treatment test results.

DREW WATCH ELECTRONIC SERVICES software also provides one location for multiple sources of information. This eliminates paper handling of material safety data sheets, product data sheets, control and dosage charts and onboard graphing logs. Electronic exporting of data allows for faster review turnaround, thereby providing the customer with a timely assessment of the overall water treatment conditions.
