History

Metrix Instrument Company was founded in 1965 in Houston, Texas. It was the first company to offer 4-20 mA vibration transmitters for seismic and proximity monitoring. This greatly simplified the process of vibration monitoring and reduced its cost. The company is focused on customer-driven research and development. Metrix’s commitment to innovation and product reliability continues to produce more firsts. Recent advancements include a loop-powered impact transmitter to detect mechanical looseness in reciprocating machines, and our proprietary circuit for independent polarity IPT™ which ensures that transmitters cannot be wired wrong. Since 1992, Metrix has been ISO 9001 certified.

Roper Industries (NYSE=ROP) acquired Metrix in 1995, and the company began to expand its global presence by adding three regional sales and service offices. In 1998, Roper Industries acquired PMC/BETA and combined it with Metrix, further increasing and strengthening the product line. Today, Metrix operates in over 40 countries and is a Limited Partnership of Roper Industries, a $700 million diversified provider of engineered products in analytical instrumentation, industrial controls and fluid handling
