Enotec

What Enotec does

ENOTEC GmbH is a privately held German industrial gas analysis company founded in 1980 by Dipl.-Ing. Fred Gumprecht and headquartered in Marienheide. It designs, manufactures, and services analyzers and gas extraction systems used for combustion optimization and continuous emission monitoring in regulated industrial processes, with core sensor technology based on zirconium oxide (ZrO2) for oxygen measurement and proprietary MXP/MLT mixed-potential sensors for combined COe (carbon-equivalent) measurement. Its product portfolio spans the OXITEC oxygen analyzer line (including ATEX-certified GasEx and 19-inch extractive variants), the COMTEC combined O2/COe line (with GasEx and StaubEx dust-rated variants), the CEMTEC self-cleaning high-temperature/dust gas extraction system for cement kilns (up to 1,400°C and 2,000 g/m³), the SILOTEC 8000 for ATEX Zone 20 silo monitoring, the ENSITU 7000 entry-level plug-and-play analyzer, the AQUATEC 1000 for O2/H2O drying-process measurement, probe systems, and the ENOTEC REMOTE Android app for wireless analyzer control. All development, design, and manufacturing are performed in-house at the German headquarters.

ENOTEC sells primarily through direct field sales via three regional German sales offices (West, Nord, Süd-Ost), an international sales team at headquarters, and wholly-owned subsidiaries in the UK (1994), USA (1997), Singapore (1999), Belarus (2015), and Poland, complemented by a LATAM sales office and global distributor network. Revenue derives from hardware sales of analyzers and extractive systems, custom turnkey system solutions integrating third-party components, and aftermarket repair, maintenance, calibration, and spare-parts services. Products carry an unusually deep regulatory certification stack — QAL1, MCERTS, ATEX, SIL2, TÜV suitability test, ISO 9001, UL/CSA, EAC, CE, HART, and FOUNDATION Fieldbus — that legally gates sales into continuous emission monitoring and hazardous-area applications.

Target end markets include power plants and large combustion plants, waste and co-incineration plants, cement and lime kilns, refineries and petrochemical plants, silos/biomass storage for smoldering fire detection, industrial drying processes, shipbuilding/marine engines, crematoria, coal grinding, and chemical plants. Differentiation rests on in-house German manufacturing, a 7–8 year average sensor lifecycle, near-maintenance-free InSitu operation, and the ability to sustain measurement in extreme high-temperature and high-dust environments.

Core offering

Enotec manufactures industrial InSitu and extractive gas analyzers (oxygen, COe, H2O) and gas extraction systems for process control and emission monitoring in combustion-heavy industries. Products are developed and manufactured entirely at the German headquarters in Marienheide, complemented by installation, commissioning, repair, and maintenance services along with custom turnkey system solutions.

Product overview

ENOTEC is a German industrial gas analysis company founded in 1980, specializing in the manufacture, planning, repair, and maintenance of devices for gas analysis and extraction. The product portfolio consists of multiple InSitu and extractive gas analyzer product lines designed for process control and emissions monitoring. The core OXITEC series provides oxygen analysis using zirconium oxide technology, with the OXITEC 5000 as the flagship product and variants including ATEX-certified GasEx models and 19-inch rack-mount 500E. The COMTEC series extends capabilities with combined O2 and COe (carbon equivalent) measurement, including GasEx and StaubEx variants for explosive gas and dust environments. The SILOTEC 8000 targets silo monitoring for smoldering fire detection, while the CEMTEC provides heavy-duty gas extraction for cement plants. The entry-level ENSITU 7000 offers plug-and-play simplicity, and the AQUATEC 1000 adds moisture measurement. The ENOTEC REMOTE app enables mobile operation. Products are manufactured entirely at the German headquarters in Marienheide and are certified to ISO 9001, ATEX, TÜV Rheinland, QAL1, MCERTS, and SIL2 standards.
