RUEGER

Rüeger SA near Crissier (Lausanne), Switzerland, now into its third generation of dynamic and enthusiastic family management, has consistently set the pace in the fields of temperature and pressure measurement of high precision.

Rüeger has specialized in the development and manufacture of temperature measurement instruments, particularly electrical temperature sensors, bimetallic and gas pressure thermometers since it was founded in Lausanne in 1942. It has for over twenty years steadily expanding its range, especially in the production of high added value of multi-probes.

Rüeger also offers a full range of gauges for measuring pressure and differential pressure for various industrial applications.

In addition to being well established in Europe and Asia with a network of 3 subsidiaries (Germany, Malaysia and China), Rüeger works with more than 60 agents worldwide.

Rüeger became a major actor as a solutions provider in the fields of temperature and pressure.

History

Once just the name of a modest engineering workshop, Rüeger has become a synonym for the quality products of a world-renowned company in a success story, which has spanned nearly 70 years.

In 1942, Ernst A. Rüeger manufactured his first bimetallic thermometer.

In 1955 the first subsidiary company, Rüeger GmbH, was set up in West Germany to promote sales of the Swiss-made thermometers.

In 1962 Rolf Rüeger succeeded his father at the head of the firm. Under his leadership the family business was modernized, developed and made into a limited company.

Soon, the Lausanne premises became too small and in 1967 a new factory was built at nearby Crissier, allowing the company to meet the growing market demands and satisfy increasingly strict quality requirements.

In 1991 Bernard Rüeger, grandson of the founder, became Managing Director, and shortly afterwards his younger brother, Jean-Marc, became Production Manager.

In 1997, Rüeger Sdn Bhd opened in Malaysia in order to offer better service to his agents and clientele located in South-East Asia. In the same year, the production area at Crissier was doubled so that the sensors could be manufactured in the best possible conditions.

In 2006, Rüeger opened its subsidiary Beijing Rüeger Precision Instruments Co. Ltd., China.

In 2012, Jean-Marc Rüeger was appointed CEO of Rüeger SA. His brother Bernard was appointed Chairman of the Board, and takes responsibility for Business Development Group.

OUR PRODUCTS

• TEMPERATURE

Know-how and expertise in the fields of high precision temperature measurement are the two pillars in the evolution of the Rüeger company.

After rapidly gaining a strong reputation for the accuracy and reliability of its bimetallic thermometers, the company also established itself for its gas pressure systems.

Today, with a broad portfolio of thermoelectric and hybrid sensors as well as a wide range of expert services, Rüeger continues to serve the industry and its demanding applications through innovative solutions and dedicated products.

Bimetallic thermometers

With individual calibration and double spiral technology, Rüeger has the most compact bimetallic systems in the world and guarantees optimal accuracy and short response times.

Gas pressure thermometers

Thanks to Rüeger's long experience, we can offer a huge range of gas thermometers to meet the highest demands of different industrial applications

Thermoelectric sensors

Rüeger can offer a wide variety of gas thermoelectric sensors to meet the highest demands of different industrial applications

• PRESSURE

Measurement of pressure and temperature are often complementary. Our expertise in the development and manufacture of industrial thermometers has resulted in the design and production of high-precision pressure gauges.

In addition to the capsule, diaphragm or tube-type manometers, we have also developed new electrical pressure sensors and dedicated services. With our products present worldwide in a wide array of applications, Rüeger is a synonym of precision, safety and reliability.

High pressure

Our proven systems for high pressure measurement combine high resistance to vibration and competitive prices. The measurements are realised through a bourdon tube.

Differential pressure

Our products are designed to provide a safe and reliable pressure measurement, even in aggressive gaseous, liquid and viscous ambient conditions.

Low pressure

We offer 2 main systems for your low pressure measurements: capsule pressure gauges and diaphragm pressure gauges
