BinMaster Sensors and Technologies LLC Acquires Leader in Moisture and Weather Monitoring Sensors
BinMaster Sensors and Technologies LLC (BST™) has entered into an agreement to purchase assets of Stevens Water Monitoring Systems, Inc., a company that specializes in providing highly accurate, rugged environmental monitoring equipment: the HydraProbe®, POGO®, and TurfPro™ brands, weather stations, and advanced agrotechnology platforms used for data-driven hydrological and horticultural management. 
The acquisition will integrate new product offerings from Stevens Water into the existing BST portfolio, including integrated systems to measure, monitor, and analyze water, soil, weather, and environmental conditions critical to scientific, industrial, and horticultural operations.
The products will also enhance the company’s current selection of remote water measurement transmitters under the Senix® brand.
The Integration of Innovative Environmental Sensors
A leader in hydrological and environmental monitoring since 1911, Stevens Water Monitoring Systems, Inc. brings more than a century of innovation to water resource management, soil and weather monitoring, and environmental data acquisition.
Its comprehensive portfolio includes liquid level and water quality sensors, advanced soil moisture and electrical-conductivity instrumentation, weather stations, staff gages, telemetry systems, and data acquisition and management solutions.
Austin Benes, Senior Vice President of Sales, will collaborate closely with the Stevens Water team to align and integrate industry-leading sensors, systems, and strategies into the BST enterprise.
“Our collective goal is to bring critical operational measurements together and make that data easier to access and act upon—from inventory levels of stored materials to water, weather, soil moisture, and turf conditions,” said Benes. “By combining proven sensing technologies with connected data platforms, clients will gain critical information to enhance efficiencies across agriculture, water resources, turf management, and industrial applications.”
The Expanded BST Family
Stevens Water—and its HydraProbe®, POGO®, TurfPro™, and weather station product lines—join the BST family of brands: BinMaster® level control instrumentation, Senix ultrasonics for liquid and distance measurement, BinTrac® bin weighing systems, and MicroZone™ automated heat controls for the swine industry. The enhanced portfolio will serve a variety of markets throughout the industrial, manufacturing, utilities, turf management, and agricultural industries.
