The ISA is the International Society of America for Measurement and Control. More than 28,000 attendees are expected to participate in ISA EXPO/2000. According to the conference management, ISA is the world's largest instrumentation, systems, and automation exhibition and technical conference forum offering the newest products, technologies and industry trends. The show runs from Monday through Thursday.
DecisionLink's product solutions integrate FiberChem's patented Digital Hydrocarbon Probe (DHP) sensor technologies and Intrex's wireless satellite and Internet communications technology called SensorFusion. These products have been designed to use the ORBCOMM low-Earth orbit (LEO) satellite network, the Norcom Geosynchronous satellite network, and other wireless systems to provide two-way data transfer from fixed and mobile assets to the customer's desktop computer. These products are showcased in ORBCOMM and ControlSat's sales centers at the trade show.
DecisionLink's new product line provides smaller, low-cost sensor and communication products that use satellite communications and the Internet as the backbone for data transfer and control. The company believes these products will provide significant implementation and operational cost savings to the pipeline leak detection, aboveground storage tank monitoring, water quality monitoring and other markets.
DecisionLink's Intrex Communications Group has developed a range of products including the monitoring of propane and oil fuel tank levels and compressors, as well as other multi-user applications for low-cost volume use of satellite communication pathways.
