Novatech Controls started operations in 1974 as a distributor for a major instrument manufacturer’s industrial controls division, mainly selling and servicing temperature and related furnace and boiler controls. In 1978, Novatech commenced the manufacture of thermocouples and RTDs for temperature sensing applications.

The World’s Most Robust Oxygen Sensor

In 1980, Novatech initiated the development of an oxygen transmitter based on zirconia oxygen sensing research by the Australian government research body, the CSIRO.

Hot Bonding Controllers for the Aviation and Composite Industries

In 1992, Novatech designed a state-of-the-art multi-zone Hot Bonding Controller at the request of the Australian Air Force. This multi-zone, fully programmable controller is a key tool for successfully curing the high tech adhesives used in today’s composites industry sectors. In 2002, the second generation of the Hot Bonding Controller was designed and released for the export market.
