Eurotherm
Controls was formed in 1965 at Worthing, West Sussex, England, specifically
to manufacture temperature controllers. Within five years, the company had
set up a number of loosely related but independent companies to develop and
produce other advanced product lines. Chessell Ltd was created to manufacture data recorders, while Turnbull Control Systems (TCS) was formed to produce advanced process control systems. By 1978 the company was strong enough to "go public" and was quoted on the London Stock Exchange in May of that year. It was acquired in 1998 by Siebe plc, later to become Invensys plc. In 1998 Eurotherm Controls Inc. and Barber-Colman integrated their sales, marketing, support and product offerings, bringing their customers even greater benefits through their combined strengths. In that same year Eurotherm acquired Action Instruments. In 2001, Eurotherm integrated Eurotherm Recorders (Chessell), Action Instruments and Continental Industries, thereby strengthening all product lines and further achieving the goal of global leadership in automation, control and industrial instrumentation. |
