Thermo Fisher科技公司宣布收购AquaSensors公司。AquaSensors有限责任公司是由前Great Lakes仪表公司员工于2003年创立，它设计并生产用于水质量与过程控制应用领域的测试系统。一旦收购完成生效后，AquaSensors公司将被集 成到Thermo Fisher科技公司环境仪表分公司所属的水分析仪表(WAI)业务部。

AquaSensors公司将弥补Thermo Fisher公司现有用于水分析仪表市场上的试验电极和在线分析仪的产品功能。他们为pH/ORP、导电性、分解氧、臭氧、游离氯、混浊度和悬浮固体物的 检测提供全方位智能化与模拟过程电极与硬件。这也为Thermo Fisher公司提供与过程传感器市场供应商竞争的重要机会。

AquaSensors公司独特的“direct-to-SCADA”(直接与数据采集系统相连)产品设计减少装备与安装成本，同时在各种市政与工业水处 理应用领域改善了产品可靠性。该公司专利的DataStick(TM)测试系统具有预校正即插传感器探头，它提供24位数据且被用于产品校正、配置或直接 由PLC或计算器系统诊断。且无需要中间分析仪盒来提供帮助。
AquaSensors™ designs and manufactures innovative analytical measurement systems for process control applications. Our unique product design reduces equipment and installation costs while improving reliability in a wide variety of applications. Current measurements include pH, ORP, contacting conductivity, toroidal conductivity, dissolved oxygen (ppm), trace DO (ppb), dissolved ozone, resistivity, drinking water turbidity, raw water turbidity, suspended solids and free chlorine.

Our patented DataStick™ measurement system features pre-calibrated plug-in sensor heads that provide 24-bit data and can be calibrated, configured or diagnosed directly from a PLC or computer system. No intermediate analyzer boxes are necessary. Our AnalogPlus™ sensors and analyzers are used in more traditional analytical measurement applications.
