What OMNTEC does
OMNTEC Mfg., Inc. is a privately held US manufacturer of leak detection and tank gauging systems for the petroleum industry, founded in 1978 and headquartered in Ronkonkoma, New York. The company's product portfolio centers on the PROTEUS series of Automatic Tank Gauges (ATGs), including the PROTEUS-K (up to 8 tanks) and PROTEUS-X (up to 40 tanks with 64 Bright Eye sensors), which simultaneously monitor product levels, water levels, temperature, and leaks. Supporting products include the Bright Eye (BX Series) electro-optic sensors with proprietary 4-wire bus networking technology, mechanical and electronic line leak detectors, overfill protection valves, remote displays, float sensors, and wireless cellular monitoring via the Invigicom TLM03-E system. In 2022, OMNTEC acquired Vaporless Manufacturing (VMI), adding mechanical line leak detection, overfill protection, and pump shutdown modules to the portfolio.
OMNTEC generates revenue primarily through one-time hardware sales of ATG systems, sensors, probes, controllers, and leak detection equipment to petroleum distributors and fuel stations. Pricing is quote-based with no public list pricing; customers request quotes via online forms, phone, or email. The company also generates ancillary revenue through professional services and certification courses (Proteus ATG Course, Containment Leak Detection Course). Distribution occurs through a network of US sales representatives, international distributors, and an OMNTEC Virtual Experience platform for remote product demonstrations. The company maintains ISO 9001:2015 certification and holds registered trademarks for PROTEUS-K, PROTEUS-X, and the OMNTEC brand. With 11-50 employees and offices in New York, Arizona, and India, OMNTEC operates as a small, established niche manufacturer focused exclusively on EPA-regulated petroleum tank monitoring and leak detection compliance.

OMNTEC competitors and assessment
Company assessmentDirect peers
- Franklin Fueling Systems: Franklin Fueling Systems manufactures tank monitoring, leak detection, and fuel management systems (including the FMS and Incon product lines) for petroleum sites. It competes head-to-head with OMNTEC's PROTEUS ATG and BX-EPS line leak detection products, particularly in multi-site and distributor accounts.
- Veeder-Root (Gilbarco): Veeder-Root is the market-leading manufacturer of automatic tank gauging systems (TLS-350, TLS-450PLUS) for petroleum retailers and distributors. It is OMNTEC's primary direct competitor in the US ATG and fuel management space, with substantially greater scale and global service infrastructure.
- Scully Signal Company: Scully Signal manufactures overfill prevention, ground verification, and tank truck communication systems for petroleum transporters and storage facilities. It is comparable in the overfill alarm and delivery safety categories where OMNTEC's Delivery Defender products compete.
- INCON (by Franklin Electric): INCON, part of Franklin Electric, manufactures tank gauging and leak detection systems (Tank Sentinel, EVO series) for petroleum and industrial liquid storage. It is a direct peer to OMNTEC's PROTEUS ATG and line leak detection portfolio, with overlap in fuel retailers, distributors, and environmental compliance buyers.
- Morrison Bros. Co. Morrison Bros. manufactures overfill prevention valves, spill containers, and tank monitoring equipment for the petroleum industry. It overlaps with OMNTEC's VMI (Vaporless) overfill protection and mechanical line leak detection product lines.
- Pneumercator: Pneumercator manufactures tank gauging and leak detection systems for fuel storage and other industrial liquids. It is a long-standing direct competitor in tank level monitoring, leak detection, and overfill protection for petroleum and chemical applications.
Others
- TE Connectivity (Sensor Solutions): TE Connectivity supplies industrial sensors and connectivity used in harsh-environment monitoring applications. It is an enabling supplier of sensor components comparable to OMNTEC's BX-series hydrostatically/optically based sensors, but does not directly compete in finished ATG systems.
Broad incumbents
- Endress+Hauser: Endress+Hauser is a global leader in industrial process measurement instrumentation, including level, flow, and analytics sensors used in tanks across chemicals, oil & gas, and water. It represents a broad incumbent whose level measurement portfolio overlaps with OMNTEC's tank gauging systems, especially for industrial fluid storage.
- Emerson (Rosemount): Emerson's Rosemount and Bristol divisions supply industrial instrumentation including tank level, pressure, and leak detection products. As a large diversified automation vendor, Emerson competes with OMNTEC in industrial fluid storage applications, especially in larger oil & gas and chemical facilities.
Emerging players
- Banner Engineering: Banner Engineering manufactures industrial sensors and wireless monitoring solutions. While not focused on petroleum ATG, its wireless and IIoT sensor products increasingly overlap with OMNTEC's Invigicom and PROTEUS-W wireless tank monitoring lines for remote inventory and leak applications.
