霍尼韦尔收购Fire Sentry公司

February 8, 2012 – Honeywell acquired Fire Sentry Corporation, a privately-held manufacturer of innovative fire detection and control products for a broad range of industrial markets. The terms of the transaction were not disclosed.

2月8日消息——霍尼韦尔收购了Fire Sentry公司，一家为众多工业领域提供创新火焰探测和控制产品的私有制造商。交易的条款没有披露。

Based in Yorba Linda, California, Fire Sentry’s product portfolio consists of fast-responding electro-optical flame detectors, portable test lamps and dedicated control panels that are used by customers in industrial settings such as petrochemical, semiconductor, paint booth/finishing, automobile airbags and munitions plants. Fire Sentry’s products are designed to ensure rapid, accurate, and reliable detection of both hydrocarbon and non-hydrocarbon fires within a single device.

Fire Sentry公司总部位于加州的约巴林达，产品业务包括快速响应电光火焰探测器，便携式测试灯和专用的控制面板，被客户应用于石化、半导体、油漆车间/精加工、汽车安全气囊以及弹药厂等工业领域。Fire Sentry公司的产品设计确保了检测的快速、精准、可靠，一个单一设备就可以探测烃类和非烃类火焰。

The acquisition will help Honeywell significantly expand its gas and flame detection, and monitoring solutions and builds on the company’s acquisitions of System Sensor in 1984 and Zellweger Analytics in 2005 among other important acquisitions in the gas detection arena. The company will be integrated into Honeywell Life Safety and will extend significant synergies in distribution channels, vertical end-markets and global end-users.

此次收购将帮助霍尼韦尔显著扩大其气体和火焰检测和监控解决方案，此前，在气体探测领域，霍尼韦尔在1984年收购了System Sensor公司，在2005年收购了Zellweger Analytics，以及其他重要收购。该公司将被整合到霍尼韦尔生命安全业务部，并将在分销渠道、垂直中端市场以及全球终端用户等方面显著增强协同效应。

“This acquisition will further strengthen Honeywell’s leadership position in the gas detection space by enhancing our competitive gas and flame offering and bolstering our cross-selling opportunities across the globe,” said Mark Levy, president and CEO of Honeywell Life Safety. “Fire Sentry has a 30-year history of proven fire and flame detection innovation and more than 100,000 units installed worldwide in a wide array of industrial settings. This is a great fit for our Life Safety business and deeply complements our technology advances in gas detection which include an impressive number of technological firsts.”

霍尼韦尔生命安全业务部总裁兼首席执行官Mark Levy表示：“这次收购将进一步加强霍尼韦尔在气体检测领域的领导地位，增强我们的气体和火焰检测业务的竞争力，并增加我们在全球范围内的交叉销售机会。Fire Sentry有着30年成熟的火焰探测创新技术，在全球各种各样工业领域的安装量超过10万个。这对我们的生命安全业务是一个绝好的搭配，极大地补充了我们气体探测技术的优势，其中包括数量众多的技术第一。”

Fire Sentry’s smart electro-optical radiant energy multi-spectrum and multi-spectral flame detectors and associated products greatly reduce false alarms thanks to its innovative use of patented algorithms.

Fire Sentry的智能光电辐射能量多光谱和多光谱火焰探测器及相关产品凭借其专利算法的创新利用，大大降低了误报。
