A fit and forget modernisation option for instrumentation brings a new level of reliability to metering without the need for complex retrofitting


By Dr. Otto Fest, President and Founder of Otek


FOR DECADES NOW THE ABILITY to monitor systems to avoid a catastrophic failure has led the engineers at OTEK Corporation to build solutions that modernise the infrastructure of the past. It is not uncommon for meters decades old to be abandoned by the original manufacturer leaving the displays and metering a “time bomb” waiting to fail. The idea is simple, to build solutions that are retrofitted to existing needs through form, fit and function, and yet do so with modern and reliable technology. The company has been dedicated for more than 48 years to eliminating the “Stuck Needle” syndrome with high-quality, fault-tolerant metering solutions.


CLASS 1E, MIL-SPEC or COMMERCIAL “Simplicity is very difficult to achieve”. The capital expenditure for building nuclear power plants for example, and the regulatory oversight required to do any significant change challenges their owners to find an alternative solution. Having started in the energy market, OTEK understood that other market segments could benefit from its expertise in building plug-and-play solutions that meet their demands. The goal was to develop a “common denominator” for all existing (and new) mechanical and electrical meter’s dimensions and present mounting: The “All for One” adapter plates and “One for All” input/output
