Assuming an instrument (with automation) at 100% capacity is used 24 hours
a day, what is a heavily used instrument?
We are trying to justify updating an older - heavily used instrument - but
when looked at from this statistic, it's only averaging about 30% of it's
theoretical capacity. Do you exclude weekends bumping this value to an
average of 40% use?
Another option is # of samples run/day which is really hard to measure and
perhaps is an even worst statistic.
Curious on how you manipulate these numbers and what you consider to be a
'heavily used' instrument.
