Case Studies
U.S. Case – Pharmaceutical Lab, Massachusetts
A biotechnology firm installed our Class A RTDs across cleanroom autoclaves. These sensors offered enhanced stability under steam sterilization, leading to improved compliance with FDA and GMP validation protocols while reducing calibration downtime by 35%.
U.S. Case – Petrochemical Plant, Texas
A major petrochemical processor replaced outdated temperature sensors with RTDs from Thermal Measurement Devices across its distillation columns. The upgrade improved process efficiency, reduced sensor failures by 60%, and enabled integration with GAO Tek’s industrial signal conditioners
Canadian Case Study – Municipal Water Facility, British Columbia
RTDs were deployed for monitoring water inflow and outflow temperatures across treatment basins. By integrating RTDs with GAO RFID’s data logging platform, the facility ensured accurate temperature tracking aligned with environmental and safety standards, supporting audit-readiness and process stability.
