Background:
• Sierra Emissions Systems is a wholly owned subsidiary of Sierra Instruments, Inc
• Sierra Instruments, Inc. is well known as "The Mass Flow Company" and manufactures high-performance mass flow meters and controllers for use in numerous industries and applications throughout the world.
• In 1990 Sierra received the exclusive worldwide license for Caterpillar patented micro-dilution technology.
• Sierra's knowledge of mass flow measurement and control, a key to partial flow sampling, and Caterpillars vast engine development and emissions testing knowledge formed a formidable technology partnership.
• For well over a decade, this technology partnership has yielded a line of world-class partial flow sampling systemsóthe Model BG1, Model BG2, and now the Model BG-3.
