burster is a medium-sized enterprise based in the German state of Baden-Württemberg. Precision, quality and versatility are the standards that have shaped the development of this business over more than fifty years into one of the most important suppliers of precision instruments, sensors and systems for sensor signal processing and process monitoring.

At its premises occupying over 5700 m², burster applies the highest quality standards in its production of components and systems in accordance with EN ISO 9001:2015. burster supplies more than 7500 customers across Germany and around the globe. burster’s innovative and experienced team provides these customers with intensive application support even before a decision to buy is made. Solving complex measurement problems and integrating measurement and test technology into production environments for production control, quality assurance and test-equipment monitoring are everyday instrumentation tasks for this business.

burster supplies measuring technology ranging from individual sensors to system solutions, with most customers based in plant construction and engineering, automation, the automotive industry and its suppliers, electrical and electronic engineering and the chemicals industry. It also has a presence in numerous other sectors and future or niche markets such as medical engineering and biotechnology. In addition to solutions employing standard products, burster also provides custom OEM designs and OEM sensors. Many years of experience in the manufacture of measuring sensors and instruments guarantee optimum solutions. This has earned burster a national and international reputation for innovation geared to customers needs.

QA standards and tighter product liability regulations are leading to stricter demands for documented inspection of measurement and test equipment. Regular inspection of measurement and test equipment is essential here to ensuring dependable quality assurance. With ever greater demand for compliance with strictest quality requirements, burster’s in-house German-accredited calibration laboratory D-K-15141-01-00 (accredited since 1980) uses traceable and continuously checked calibration standards to give the customer maximum confidence that these requirements are met. In addition, burster offers its customers a choice of model for on-site calibration and service in order to minimize any downtime or dismantling of machinery and equipment for the customer.
