Sentelligence, Inc. Expands
“Strategic Business Relationship Agreement” with
Saturn Electronics and Engineering to Develop and
Manufacture a Sensor to Detect Urea (Saturn)
Indianapolis, Indiana…Sentelligence,
Inc. announces a new Agreement between Sentelligence
and Saturn Electronics and Engineering of Auburn
Hills, Michigan. The Agreement provides for a
strategic and funding relationship in which Saturn
will provide engineering and manufacturing support
on development of a Urea Sensor. The agreement will
increase Saturn’s equity position in Sentelligence.
According to Bill Linden,
Sentelligence President and Chief Operation Officer,
“SCR (Selective Catalytic Reduction) is an
established technology with the potential to meet
anticipated global emissions requirements. On-board,
real time monitoring of urea based additives using
our optical sensor technology is intended to protect
the integrity and effectiveness of the SCR Systems
in use. Linden states, “Sentelligence and Saturn
will develop a urea sensor based upon Sentelligences’
current patent pending intelligent platform
technology. It offers the ability to distinguish a
variety of common additive fluid contaminants. As
such, the sensor provides the necessary condition
monitoring along with the potential for extended
life when used in a harsh chemical environment.”
Larry Tomczak, Saturn’s Chief
Technology Officer, states that “Sentelligence
brings an opportunity for Saturn to develop and
manufacture new technology that will continue to
strengthen Saturn’s presence in commercial and
industrial markets worldwide.” Tomczak further
stated “This new Agreement will provide both
companies with an opportunity to development a urea
sensor that will meet the rigorous demands of global
SCR systems support – cost effectively.”
