September 28, 2011

Power Ignition and Controls, a division of Spartan Controls, has added a new supplier to the company’s popular machinery health monitoring group. IMI Sensors, a division of PCB Piezotronics, is the leading supplier to the industrial vibration sensor market.

IMI sensors bring a unique combination of advanced engineering products combined with applied applications and outstanding service.

Now, our customers have an exceptional range of products to apply to their increasing challenges in both the rotational and reciprocating environments. From the new Reciprocating Machinery Protectors which  provide both an impact and overall vibration transmitter and is designed to capture mechanical looseness and cracked rods in reciprocating machinery , to advanced low cost Smart USB Switches  our solutions can be developed instead of prescribed from a limited low tech line card. “

“IMI’s proven customer support and lifetime warranty policy dovetails nicely into our growing machinery health business,” says PIC Manager Mike Iuliano. “Spartan wanted a supplier that could support our customers while trying to solve complex measuring issues in the reciprocating market,” he continues.

"Spartan Controls was the one western Canadian company we wanted to be aligned with," says Howard Bell, VP of North American Sales, adding, "Our experience tells us that local support and service is paramount to long-term success for everyone involved."

Sensors, transmitters and switches have evolved for commodities to engineered products which provide cost-effective solutions. The synergies of this relationship will provide the western marketplace with innovative solutions.
