GE Analytical Instruments, a division of GE Water & Process Technologies, was conceived with the belief that if you cannot measure it, then you cannot control it. Today GE Analytical Instruments is totally committed to providing measurement solutions that are critical to our customers’ needs. The innovative technologies, insightful methods, and dependable support we provide our customers are based on an intimate understanding of our customers’ processes and the measurements that limit their success. This basis is not new, but goes back to our roots more than three decades ago. The company began in the late 1960s, as Ionics Instrument Division, when Ionics Inc., a pioneer in providing innovative water management solutions, formed a cooperative agreement with the Union Carbide Corporation. The successful association ultimately led to acquisition and transfer of Union Carbide’s thermocatalytic total organic carbon TOC technology for analysis of carbon content in process waters. Shortly thereafter, Ionics Instrument Division licensed total oxygen demand TOD technology from the Dow Chemical Company for rapid determination of oxygen demand in process waters. These complementary and groundbreaking answers to difficult and timeconsuming process measurement problems comprised an important part of Ionics’ strategy to provide water purification and control solutions to its rapidly growing range of customers. By the mid 1970’s Ionics Instrument Division was firmly established and playing a key role in routinely solving water management problems. Ionics brand analyzers number in the thousands today and are providing solutions on every continent. Sievers Instruments, Inc. was formed in 1984 by two colleagues from the University of Colorado, Dr. Misha Plam and Professor Robert Sievers. Based on innovative chemiluminescence technology, Sievers Instruments developed a novel detector designed for determination of nitric oxide that has since become the standard for biomedical research into the role of nitric oxide in biological systems. Based on the this core chemiluminescence technology, Sievers subsequently introduced the Sulfur Chemiluminescence Detector SCD, leading to more than 1,000 SCD instruments installed worldwide for use in a broad range of applications.
