Our History
Complementing Our Electrical Services
For over 20 years, Interstates has been actively engaged in providing instrumentation and instrumentation services for our clients.

Proud of Our History
Today Interstates offers our clients the full range of instrumentation services. We are proud of our history and excited about the future clients we will have the opportunity to serve.

In 1984, the first substantial instrumentation project was performed in Hamburg, Iowa, in response to a client's request to provide instrumentation services for an ethanol plant.

The leadership team at Interstates saw instrumentation services as a logical progression of, and a complement to, our electrical services.

In the Beginning
Early development of instrumentation services focused on capital project delivery. Electricians specifically trained on instrumentation performed the instrumentation scope. The services we provided included installation, calibration, and startup of both pneumatic and analog instrumentation.

Local pneumatic and microprocessor-based loop controllers were used extensively. Instrument technicians interfaced with the control system vendors, providing I/O termination lists and other necessary documentation to Interstates’ electricians.

The New Millenium
In the new millennium, we continued to build on Interstates’ rich history and experience. In 2001, Interstates made a significant investment in expanding our instrumentation expertise by employing specialized, trained, and experienced instrumentation technicians and instrumentation engineers.

Even with the advent of smart instrumentation and advancements in control systems, we were prepared to meet these technological challenges because of our highly trained staff.

Proud of Our History
Today we offer our clients the full range of instrumentation services. We are proud of our history and excited about the future clients we will have the opportunity to serve.
