 The company
SEIBOLD-Measurement Engineering is an Austrian-based company, specialised in development and production of equipment for measurement and analysis of liquids.

Our products are of highest quality and guarantee for supreme accuracy and repeatability of measurement results. SEIBOLD Online-Analysers are used in industrial applications, e.g. sewage treatment plants, potable water supply and a great variety of industrial processes.

The company was founded in 1934 in Vienna and became an important player in the field of measurement engineering over the years. Since the beginning, research and development was one of the utmost concerns
of SEIBOLD-Measurement Engineering. Until today, intensive internal research is the key to our success and ensures the ongoing improvement of our products.

SEIBOLD-Measurement Engineering is proud of having excellent skilled and highly motivated experts in our team, who develop analysers of highest precision with great passion and gratification.

Our cooperation with a great number of successful companies and organisations further ensures ongoing enhancement of the quality of our products and services.

Based on more than 70 years of expertise in the fields of chemical, mechanical and electronical engineering, SEIBOLD-Measurement Engineering is perceived and highly valued as reliable partner and manufacturer of innovative products and solutions for the highest demands of our content customers all over the world.

Our product range starts from the robust and easy to use series of online-anysers EASY SENSOR, designed
for monitoring threshold values, is continued by the series of COMPOSER, developed as fully autonomous measurement and control instruments, and led to the high-end product series of FISH, supporting multi parameter measurements and complex mathematical calculations for measurement results of +/-1% accuracy based on full scale.

 Expertise
Measurement and control technology around water probably describes our sphere of competence at its best.
Further characteristics are our claim to reliability of operation, as well as simplicity and robustness of our concepts, apparatuses and operating instructions.

We are manufacturer of measurement devices and each year invest 15% of our turnover in enhancements of our technologies and initiatives of research. We focus on the development of online analysers for industrial applications.

In the past four years we have achieved sustained success in measurement of heavy metals and introduced enhancements derived from research to our product line COMPOSER. The name COMPOSER was chosen in order to emphasise the importance of interaction of various disciplines, namely chemistry, electronics and mechanics - compared to an orchestra, perfectly performing scores by wellknown composers.

In many cases adjusting COMPOSER analysers to the specific given conditions at the place of installation is required in order to optimise measurement results. We meet this challenge by providing a well-appointed chemial laboratory where methods of measurement and analysis of elements are being conceived, implemented, tested and optimised.

 History
  In 1934 Ludwig Seibold is founding a thriving enterprise: SEIBOLD.
Starting with a small number of workers, the enterprise is expanding rapidly.
After World War II SEIBOLD produces an impressive range of highly advanced fully automated etching machines used for manufacturing electrolytic capacitors.

SEIBOLD starts to produce pH and conductivity measuring equipment in 1950.
In the field of water purification a transition from electrodialysis instruments to ion exchangers is taking place. In order to meet the demand of this growing market,
offices representing SEIBOLD are established abroad, a further step towards expansion.

New instruments for measurement of conductivity are developed. In the manufacturing industry high-resistance glass electrodes are introduced for measuring.

As a reaction to rising demand SEIBOLD's headquarters are transferred to the office building at Wipplinger Strasse 24 in the centre of Vienna, which in turn leads to further production increase.



In 1965 SEIBOLD products are exported to more than 60 countries.
The first instrument with automated temperature compensation and digital display is developed, followed by the first pH measuring instrument with digital LED a short time later.

In 1980 SEIBOLD is granted the right to use the coat of arms of the Republic of Austria. After intensive research a pH meter with a resolution of 0.001 pH, digital LCD display and data output is built. Ion exchange resins with colour indicators are introduced
in the field of water technology.

As a next step microprocessor controlled instruments are developed for use in laboratories in all areas of water technology, manufacturing and medicine. This is a technological advantage over competitors resulting in a market growth of more than 30%. SEIBOLD now has a staff of over 100 persons in Austria and abroad.
The rise of automation in the 1990´s requires compatible communications structures between SEIBOLD measuring equipment and industrial plants. For this purpose the relevant product series are equipped with special interfaces and bus systems.

Due to its outstanding know-how in the fields of process technology and metrology SEIBOLD plays a prominent role in this new market. Industrial automation is a new focus of
SEIBOLD's research and development activities (ion-sensitive methods). Production expert Mr Gregor Dorfbauer is employed as head of the production and service department to assure the high quality level of production and continuous adaptation to the demands given.

In 1995 SEIBOLD, a highly reputed metrology specialist for the detection of inorganic elements in liquids, cooperates with the manufacturing industry to develop new analytical processes. Many lab processes are further developed for industrial application. As a result of these joint efforts the first online analysis equipment for optimising industrial processes is made available (photometric method).

SEIBOLD develops detection equipment for new ranges and areas of measuring, customised to meet the demands of industrial clients.

In August 2003 Mr Rainer Bernert took over the management of the company. The new manager agrees that managing SEIBOLD is a great challenge and an immensely interesting task in view of a success story extending over nearly seven decades, a large number of satisfied customers, an excellent team and robust, reliable products.

In 2006 SEIBOLD-Measurement Engineering moved to a new location in 1110 Vienna, Grillgasse 51. Supporting the ongoing expansion, the new location offers enough room for both the chemical and electronical laboratory.

Using this state-of-the-art infrastructure, the experts of SEIBOLD-Measurement Engineering will continue with comprehensiv development and engineering in order to provide customers worldwide with new products satisfying their needs.
