Heinrichs Messtechnik since 1911

Since more than 100 years we design measuring instruments for our
customers. Worldwide and daily in countless applications we provide our
know-how for our customers and thus we contribute a big part of reliability
and accuracy for their plants and machines. Each detail in our instruments
is the amount of experience of decades and serves always the scope of
improvement of the efficiency of the instruments and for the safety of in your
applications.

From the beginnings up to now Heinrichs Messtechnik attended e.g. the

development of the explosion protections guidelines nationwide as well as
worldwide and offers knowledge and support for the arrangement of norms
and standards in particular for flow meters.
