Founded & Grounded in the Gas Sector
We have been in the gas sector since 1982.
In the early years, we built and commissioned gas stations for metering and regulation. Stations came in all ranges for domestic, industrial, distribution and transmission purposes and were delivered as turn-key solutions including gas flow computer, configuration software and a system for control and monitoring.
In the early 1990´s we introduced the first smart gas meter with electronic temperature compensation. It was sold in countries, where gas meters were installed outside and required temperature compensation to avoid loss. Extended temperature range, high accuracy and superior stability made this meter the safe choice for many gas utilities. After several reverifications, this first-generation meter is still in operation at some utilities.
Another landmark in the development of smart gas meters was an index based on optical sensing by Gray Code, a smart way of optical sensing, digitalizing the movement of the mechanical engine in the index.
We were involved, when the first smart gas meters were piloted in multi-utility applications in Netherlands in the mid 2000´s. A dedicated Dutch smart gas meter with M-Bus communication and remote controlled built-in valve was launched and sold in high volumes.
Since then we have delivered smart gas meters to high-volume projects in several European countries, among these 1.4 million to the Dutch consortiums Liander, Stedin, DELTA Netwerkbedrijf and Westland Infra. This order also paved the way for the first FAIR smart meter – a gas meter, which raises the bar on corporate sustainability and fairness without compromising the security and functionality of the meter.
