RICHMOND, BC, Aug. 8, 2017 /CNW/ - Photon Control Inc.
("Photon Control" or the "Company") (TSX-V: PHO), a leading
developer of optical measurement technologies, announced today the
appointment of Ace Instruments as its new distributor for its
Focus®2.0 Optical Gas Flow Meter ("OFM") and related products.
"We are extremely pleased to appoint Ace Instruments as our
Exclusive Distributor for our Optical Flow Meter products for
Alberta, British Columbia and Saskatchewan, and I look forward to working
with Dino Soucy and his team to give
us greater reach in the Oil and Gas sector with this product", said
Scott Edmonds, CEO of Photon
Control. "Following a review of the market for our products, we
determined that a distributor model was more efficient for the
Company rather than the direct sales model followed by previous
management. Then, as we looked across North America for our first exclusive
distributor, we selected Ace Instruments based on their reputation
for customer service, and Dino's enthusiasm for, and prior success
in selling the OFM product."
"Great service and superior products are how Ace built its
business. We are extremely happy partnering up with Photon Control
because the OFM is extremely accurate and an environmental
necessity. It offers an efficient solution at a lower overall cost
of ownership to its users, an advantage that is extremely important
in today's energy market", added Dino
Soucy, owner of Ace Instruments Ltd.
Ace Instruments Ltd. is an instrumentation and electrical
company locally owned and operated in Fort St. John, with offices in Dawson Creek, Grande
Prairie and Calgary. Taking
great pride in the quality of products and services provided to the
oil and gas sector, Ace Instruments provides services in everything
from maintenance and construction to programming and design.
Building on a successful sensor technology platform, Photon
Control created The Focus® Optical Flow Meter for the energy
sector. In 2014, the Company launched the second generation of this
10 year product. The Focus® 2.0 Optical Gas Flow Meter provides
high accuracy and dependability in a robust low-maintenance
package, measuring the volumetric flow of emissions from gas flare
stacks. Oil and Gas refineries commonly release and burn excess or
waste gas through "flare stacks". As emissions from gas flares
affect the environmental carbon footprint, regulatory bodies have
instated emissions legislation. Photon Control's optical gas flow
meter enables companies to meet the regulatory measurement and
reporting requirements.
