Gems Sensors is a wholly
owned subsidiary of Danaher Corporation, acquired in September 1997.
Danaher (Danaher.com) designs, manufactures and markets, industrial and
consumer products in both the Tool & Component and Process /
Environmental Controls industries.

| The Gems Sensors story begins almost 50
years ago in 1955 when the company founder, Edward H. Moore, developed a
level indicator in his basement. It was patented in 1959. Along with an
associate, Gordon Seigle, he established the Gems Company (GS for Gordon
Seigle, EM for Ed Moore).
Gems' first commercial success was a bilge
switch for the small boating industry. Rapid acceptance of Gems' products
for marine and industrial applications led to continual expansion of
facilities and staff-from a 6,500 sq. ft. building to Gems' current home
of 60,000 sq. ft. in Plainville, Connecticut, USA.
Today, Gems manufactures hundreds of
standard and custom products and employs a full staff of engineers,
manufacturing personnel and technical sales associates. Gems has become
the OEM's premier source for fluid sensors and controls.
