Mary Kindle’s our newest Inventory Specialist, and she’s the best person for the job. Before coming to LDAR Mary spent the past nine years teaching kids (Pre-K to 8th grade). If there’s anything you learn when dealing with kids, it’s that you need to be organized. Past work experience also includes work in the tanker ship industry. Mary received her Business Management degree from Simmons College in Boston.
Her greatest accomplishment is being “a mom to 4 children and a proud wife to Jeff (husband for 25 years).” She loves spending her free time with family and friends when they’re home and working on various creative projects.
LDARtools is starting 2018 with a Brownie Celebration!
Come celebrate with us!
On February 5 & 6, 2018, our skilled Repair Technicians did it again! Clearing the phx21 repair board is a grand achievement, considering we have over a 1000 phx21s in the field.
Below is our remarkable phx21 Team and the EMPTY Maintenance Board:
As good as we are, it is still an amazing milestone – one that we want to celebrate with everyone who helped to make it happen.

We celebrated an exciting reunion this week. phx21-1409 has returned to the original hands that assembled it back in June of 2014. After 3 ½ years in the field, Tim Reynolds, a phx21 Super Star, couldn’t believe his eyes when the unit hit his tool bench. “This is the unit’s first repair. It still has its original pump.” Tim exclaimed while reviewing the analyzer. 
The phx21-1409 analyzer has monitored 100,759 components since it joined the ISS fleet on July 1, 2014. For a phx21 to last this long, and be passed around many field technicians, shows consistent training and organized supervision has paid off. With proper handling, frequent filter management, and routine maintenance your phx21 could be the next phx21 we spotlight.
If you have a similar phx21 story or any tips-n-tricks on how you properly manage your LDAR fleet, we’d love to hear it. Please send all stories and/or tips-n-tricks to sales@ldartools.com.

With our new phx42 coming out we would like to share with you how it compares with the TVA2020. We have created a document that places the characteristics of the analyzers side by side so you can see the difference for yourself.
For those familiar with the phx21, you will find this document interesting as well. We have placed a “+” next to the phx42 feature to indicate an enhancement of the phx21 design. Take a look and tell us what you think of the new phx42. 
Happy Thanksgiving, everybody!
A quick announcement before the festivities: the office will be closed on Nov 23 and 24, 2017. We’ll be back on Monday.
Be safe and have fun.
Thank you for taking time out of your busy schedule to join us for our Fall Festival and celebrate another great year.
It was great seeing everyone. The Training Seminar had a great turn out and the Fall Festival was full of familiar faces. We look forward to seeing everyone again next year!
