Process Measurement & Controls, Inc. (PMC) and Sensor Technik Sirnach AG (STS) have combined to provide a range of high-performance pressure transmitters and transducers for the North American market. 

 

“It’s exciting to once again be in a position to satisfy those demanding customer applications from a small U.S. company with strong technical support, flexibility and quick response," said Rob Knowles, president and previous founder of Druck Inc. "Exceptionally good repeatability and hysteresis enable us to offer Total accuracies to 0.1% over a wide temperature range at very affordable prices.”

STS specializes in the design and manufacture of high performance sensors specifically for the measurement of pressure, temperature and level. Headquarters and main manufacturing facilities are in Sirnach, Switzerland. The products are based on highly developed piezoresistive technology with significant market success in applications including gas/oil exploration and transmission, offshore/subsea, shipbuilding, surface/groundwater, environmental and a wide range of test applications, particularly in the automotive and aerospace sectors.

PMC provides reliable solutions for the measurement of pressure, level and vacuum with a specific focus to process industries. Since 1963, PMC’s patented flush-mounted transmitters have been used in the pulp and paper, food and beverage, petrochemical, pharmaceutical and wastewater management industries.
