Sensor Maker Acquires Visyx

Facebook X LinkedIn Email
HAMPTON, Va., Nov. 26, 2007 -- Sensor and sensor-based systems manufacturer Measurement Specialties Inc. announced it has acquired the assets of California-based Visyx Technologies. Terms of the transaction were not disclosed. Based on tuning-fork technology originally developed by Symyx Technologies, Visyx has developed sensors that can measure fluid properties, including density, viscosity and dielectric constant. This technology will allow OEMs to incorporate fluid property measurement, such as oil condition, in their next-generation equipment. Target markets include heavy truck/off road engines and transmissions,...Read full article
