Pepperl+Fuchs has acquired the "Separator Alarm System (SAS)" business from the Danish company OJ Electronics.
With effect from 15th September 2006, the Danish company OJ Electronics, a specialist for heating and air control solutions, has sold the assets of its division of oil separator alarm systems (SAS) to the German automation company Pepperl+Fuchs.
OJ Electronics, with 2005 revenues of € 25 million, wants to further concentrate on their core product lines - thermostats for comfort heating and HVAC controls and power - utilizing their core sales channels and stimulating the continuous growth of the company.
Pepperl+Fuchs, a specialist for electronic explosion hazardous area protection with 2005 revenues of € 280 million, wants to enlarge their offering for oil separator alarm systems as part of their focus on water treatment and sewage applications.
Both companies Pepperl+Fuchs and OJ Electronics have entered into a supply agreement for 6 months to guarantee a smooth transition of products and know-how and to ensure delivery and availability of the products throughout the integration process.
Pepperl+Fuchs is glad to announce that the two key persons of the SAS business, Mr. P. Vestergaard and Mr. H. Villumsen, have decided to stay with business and joined the Pepperl+Fuchs Group at the same effective dated.
As such your contact data will remain unchanged and a continuous service can be guaranteed. Orders can be sent to the attention of Mr. Villumsen. In the near future the local Pepperl+Fuchs sales subsidiary will contact you to discuss the future order and delivery process and the time schedule for these individual transitions.
