R. M. Young Company to Acquire EnviroTech Sensors, Inc. 

The R. M. Young (USA) Company has acquired EnviroTech Sensors, Inc. of Columbia, Maryland. Founded in 2001, EnviroTech designs and manufactures sensors used for measuring atmospheric visibility. EnviroTech Sentry visibility sensors are used in more than 30 countries for applications that include fog detection in Road Weather Information Systems (RWIS), in Airport Weather Observation Systems (AWOS) and coastal monitoring systems for waterways and offshore foghorn control.

Tom Young, President of the R. M. Young Company stated, “EnviroTech shares our reputation for producing high performance, reliable instrumentation. The Sentry visibility sensors are an excellent addition to our existing products for surface weather observation.”

“We are excited to become a part of the Young family,” said John Crosby, President and Founder of EnviroTech. “Young has worked hard for over 50 years to establish itself as a leader in meteorological
instruments. The Sentry sensors are a natural fit.”

The current Sentry product line includes visibility sensors for road weather or waterway monitoring, tunnel visibility monitoring and ATEX Zone 1 hazardous area monitoring applications.
