One of Australia’s leading suppliers of measurement and calibration equipment, Ross Brown Sales, has just turned 50.
Headquartered in Sydney’s Norwest Business Park, the company also operates successful branch offices in Melbourne, and Auckland, NZ, with agents in South Australia and Western Australia. Queensland and Northern Territory are serviced direct from the head office in NSW.
An initial agreement with Ametek /US Gauge in 1975 has developed into a strong alliance and allowed Ross Brown Sales to expand its focus into the Oil and Gas industries with a comprehensive range of high quality, reliable precision pressure measurement and calibration equipment.
Through an Ametek joint venture with a Chinese based company, Ross Brown now provides general equipment gauges to OEMs and industry under the well recognised ‘RB’ logo. The strength of the Ametek alliance has increased throughout the years with Ross Brown representing a number of other divisions of the Ametek group.
In 1988, on the retirement of Ross Brown, his son Graham bought the business from his father. Recognising the need to expand from a pressure gauge supplier to a company able to solve pressure and other process problems, Ross Brown Sales actively sought complementary product lines.
Today, the company sells products for precision pressure measurement and calibration, temperature measurement and calibration, as well as torque, force, flow, and data loggers.
The company has further diversified into supplying electric motors with 120V and 240V products which it supplies to the pool, spa and vacuum cleaner OEMs.
Ross Brown Sales operates and maintains a NATA Accredited Metrology Laboratory (Pressure), Accreditation No:1808 for the calibration of Pressure and Vacuum devices from —100kPa Vac to 100,000 kPa Pressure.
The company has grown with an annual turnover approaching $10 million and a staff and management team of 28.
Ross Brown Sales says it thanks its customers and suppliers for their support throughout the last 50 years and looks forward to continuing to be of service for many more years to come.
