美國Metrix Instrument
美國Metrix儀器公司成立于1965年,是市場上第一家生產4-20mA振動變送器的公司,這種變送器可大大簡化振動監測的過程和降低監測成本。Metrix生產成套系列與設備振動值有關的產品,用以測量,監測并提供同人工保護相同的對潛在機械故障的早期報警。系列產品主要包括:振動監控器、溫度監控器、頻率監控器、系統繼電控制器、速度傳感器、接近變送器、信號處理器、振動開關、加速度傳感器、電纜、軟件、附件等,可用于渦輪機寫、冷卻塔、壓縮機、泵、齒輪箱等。公司的客戶主要為化學工業、電力、石油、氣體處理、造紙和冶金行業。
四十多年來, Metrix為全球客戶提供用于測量和監測振動的一整套儀表設備,并對潛在機械故障提供預警。我們的產品范圍廣泛,涵蓋機器狀態監測系統、接近探頭、電纜和驅動器、傳感器、地震傳感器和傳送機、加速計、開關、信號調節器、監視器和便攜式儀表和振動器。我們的許多產品經受了各種危險領域的考驗,獲得了批準和認證。自1992年以來, 本公司已通過ISO 9001:2000認證。
使用Metrix的儀表保護您的機器就意味著減少機器的停機時間、增加機器的可靠性,避免昂貴的機器更換和維修,同時保障用戶安全。我們的儀表為氣體和蒸汽渦輪機、電動機、往復式壓氣機、風扇、風機、水泵、發電機、齒輪箱、造紙機和冷卻水塔提供保護。本公司為全球各行業提供服務和支持,包括化工、發電、石油和天然氣、水和廢水、金屬和礦產品、管道、紙漿和紙張以及食品加工。
本公司系首家提供4-20 mA振動傳送機進行地震和接近監測的公司。這大大簡化并降低了監測過程的成本。我們不斷集中于客戶導向的研究和發展,我們因創新和技術上的/應用上的專門知識而聞名遐爾。
Metrix對進步和產品可靠性的承諾不斷為公司帶來更多的第一。我們的IT6810產品可檢測出往復機器中以及可編程的、基于微處理器的接近探頭傳送機(Trendsetter? TXR/TXA)和PRO系列電子開關中的機械松動故障。
在Roper Industries(紐約證券交易所代碼為ROP)于1995年收購本公司后,我們開始擴展我們在全球的銷售和服務辦事處。1998年, Roper收購了PMC/BETA并將其與Metrix合并,進一步擴大和強化了產品線。目前,我們的業務遍及40多個國家,我們已是Roper的有限合伙人,成為一家在工程產品、分析儀器、工業控制和流體處理方面擁有21億美元收入的多元化供應商。
Metrix serves customers worldwide with a complete line of instrumentation to measure and monitor vibration and provide early warning of potential machinery failure. These products include machine condition monitoring systems, proximity systems, transducers, seismic sensors, switches, transmitters, signal conditioners, monitors and portable meters.
History
Metrix Instrument Co. was founded in 1965 in Houston, Texas. It was the first company to offer 4-20 mA vibration transmitters for seismic and proximity monitoring. This greatly simplified the process of vibration monitoring and reduced its cost. The company is focused on customer-driven research and development.
Metrix’s commitment to innovation and product reliability continues to produce more firsts. Recent advancements include a loop-powered impact transmitter to detect mechanical looseness in reciprocating machines and a programmable, microprocessor-based proximity probe transmitter. Since 1992, Metrix has been ISO 9001 certified.
Roper Industries (NYSE=ROP) acquired Metrix in 1995, and the company began to expand its global presence by adding three regional sales and service offices. In 1998, Roper acquired PMC/BETA and combined it with Metrix, further increasing and strengthening the product line. Today, Metrix operates in over 40 countries and is a Limited Partnership of Roper, a $2.1 billion diversified provider of engineered products in analytical instrumentation, industrial controls and fluid handling.
Industries Served
Customers around the world depend upon Metrix products to monitor vibration on gas and steam turbines, motors, compressors, pumps, generators, gear boxes, paper machines and cooling towers. The company serves and supports global industries including chemical, power generation, oil and gas, water and wastewater, metals and minerals, pulp and paper, and food processing.
